You can use is()

var firstC = $(".cm_lhs").children("div").first();
if (firstC.is(".tile_nav")) {
    alert("Present");
}

var firstC = $(".cm_lhs").children("div").first();
 if (firstC.hasClass("tile_nav")) {
        alert("Present");
 }

or do it manually

var cName = $(".cm_lhs").children("div").first().attr('class');
if (cName.split(' ').indexOf('tile_nav') > -1) {
    alert("Present");
}

You can use hasClass method as follow:

if ($(".cm_lhs").children("div").first().hasClass("tile_nav")) {
    alert("Class present");
}

    }

You can use hasClass() of jquery

For e.g.

if ($(".cm_lhs").children("div").first().hasClass("tile_nav")) {
alert(cName);
}

This works
