Yes, it is both grammatical and natural to use in this context. Them is also appropriate as there are multiple kids and not a single kid.

To have a child can mean to give birth, but obviously it doesn't in this context. The father has the children in his charge on Fridays. – Kate Bunting May 5 '20 at 16:39
