Help prepare young children for meaningful lives by teaching cognitive, social-emotional and motor skills throughout the day. Join our culture of patient-centered care. Kids Unlimited Learning Academy (KULA) is an early intervention day treatment clinic for children with special needs.

And, KULA has nurses on staff to serve children with medical needs. KULA's services also include developmental/psychological testing by a licensed psychologist, nutritional evaluations and consultations, and audiological evaluations. Our whole treatment team works together and with our patients' families to make sure each child's needs are met. KULA typically treats children from birth to Kindergarten. However, we try to expand our services during the summer months to include elementary school-aged children with special needs. If you have a child who may benefit from our services, we would love to hear from you. QUALIFICATIONS Education/ Certification: High school diploma or equivalent. CDA preferred. Experience/ Knowledge required: Prefer at least one year of successful experience in a classroom setting working with developmentally at-risk children or equivalent combination of education and experience.
