Kohl's Child Life Program - Internship Opportunities
Thank you for your interest in Children's Hospital of Wisconsin's Kohl's Child Life internship program. Internships are offered for the spring, summer and fall semesters. Our spring and fall programs are 16 weeks in length, while the summer program is 14 weeks.
Interns in the Kohl's Child Life program receive various educational and skill-based experiences designed to help them transition into the role of a child life professional. Some of the specific areas of focus include: medical play, surgical and procedural preparation, documentation, planning and supervising developmentally appropriate activities (in a group setting and on an individual basis) and working under the philosophy of family-centered care. Additional experiences are provided through in-services, case study development and multidisciplinary rounds. Our program provides learning opportunities that encompass each age and developmental level of a child.
