About the job

Join Us as a Child Development Specialist!

Employment Type: Part-time

Compensation: $22-$28 per hour

Our Mission:

Make a real impact. Build essential skills. Grow with us.

At Positive Development, we are dedicated to providing every child the opportunity to thrive, learn, and grow. We also believe in offering our team members meaningful work that fosters real skill development.

In this role, you will work one-on-one with children on the autism spectrum, helping them develop vital communication, social, and daily living skills through engaging, play-based interactions.

What Makes This Position Unique:

This is not a passive position; you will be actively involved in coaching and connecting with children to foster their development. This experience is particularly beneficial for those pursuing careers in:

  • Psychology

  • Social Work

  • Occupational Therapy

  • Speech Language Pathology

  • Education and Special Education

  • Counseling

  • Medicine and Health

While this work is incredibly rewarding, it requires patience, emotional maturity, and dedication. You will be guided and supported by our experienced clinicians and supervisors who are committed to your growth.

We are particularly eager to connect with candidates who are:

  • Passionate about working with children and teens

  • Curious about human development and learning

  • Patient, empathetic, and enthusiastic

  • Reliable and able to maintain a consistent schedule (children thrive on consistency!)

  • Comfortable working directly with families in home-based settings

Ideal candidates include education majors, psychology students, pre-med and nursing students, and anyone interested in a fulfilling career in child development.

About Positive Development

At Positive Development, we strive to create an environment where every child can flourish and every professional can gain valuable experience. Join us in making a positive difference in the lives of children and their families.
