Developmental Learning Center

In Jacksonville, the Developmental Learning Center is a child care and early learning center for children with special needs and medical complexities, from 6 weeks through age 22. It provides infant and preschool care, VPK, early intervention, PPEC, extended-day programs, after-school care, and summer care. Nursing support and onsite therapies are incorporated into daily activities, with low adult-to-child ratios. The center welcomes children with a range of developmental and medical needs, including those who use g-tubes, catheters, or apnea monitors. It also serves a limited number of typically developing children as an inclusion center. Programs run year-round and include education, nursing care, and therapies tailored to children's individual skill levels.
