Therapy that starts with families.At Partners in Development, we believe the most meaningful growth happens in everyday moments: play, meals, bedtime routines, and all the in-between times that make up a child's world. We work alongside parents and caregivers, not just with the child, because families are the experts on their own lives. Our sessions are play-based, child-led, and grounded in early intervention principles. We're looking for an Occupational Therapist who works the same way.
