  • Encore career workers: anyone looking for a fresh start in a mission-driven organization supporting kids!

Responsibilities

  • Offer one-on-one developmental and behavioral support to children aged 2-6 in a clinic environment, guided by science-backed, naturalistic therapeutic methods

  • Implement intervention plans crafted by expert clinicians in behavior analysis, speech, and occupational therapy

  • Team up with the child's healthcare professionals to provide consistent, high-quality care

Qualifications

  • Previous experience with children aged 2-6, ideally in a professional capacity

  • Preference for college graduates or people pursuing a college degree

What We Offer

  • $20.50 - $26.00/hour with regular bonus and promotion opportunities. All staff members are considered every 3 months for a raise or promotion

  • Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision plans

  • Student loan repayment and tuition reimbursement benefits

  • Priority access for in-network mental health support through our partnership with Sol Mental Health

  • Opportunities for career exploration in Behavior Analysis, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Psychology, and other roles

  • A guaranteed minimum of 30 hours per week for full-time roles

  • Supportive training for RBT certification and ABA therapy best practices

  • Tons of support from our multi-disciplinary team
