Early intervention

Specialised projects with schools

Kids Are Kids! is a dynamic and innovative organisation and we have a number of different exciting programs and government contracts.

A lot of our services are provided in the community in the natural environment for the child. This may include client’s homes, schools, childcare and community facilities.
