Description

OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY AIDE BE THE FORCE BEHIND LIFE-CHANGING MOMENTS

You are more than just a job title. You are the energy that keeps the momentum going

WHO WE ARE

Thera Tree Pediatric Therapy is on a relentless mission to grow minds, bodies, and spirits through world-class pediatric therapy. At Thera Tree, we don't just provide therapy—we ignite potential and empower futures. We are looking for an Occupational Therapy Aide who's ready to jump into the action
—not sit on the sidelines.

Every therapy session holds the power to change a child's life. And YOU? You ensure that power is never wasted. Your work with our Occupational Therapy Team to amplify progress,
create consistency, and keep hope alive for every child and family who walks through our doors.

• Be the glue that holds therapy sessions together
  —assist Occupational Therapists & Occupational Therapy Assistance directly in sessions by setting up activities, guiding children through exercises, and reinforcing therapeutic techniques with energy and encouragement. Be the right hand to our OT team in a way that makes our therapists say, What would we do without you?
• Engage with patients
  —help children and youth complete therapy tasks, play-based interventions and therapeutic activities to promote fine and gross motor skills, sensory integration, and cognitive development. Support children in activities of daily living (ADL) such as dressing, grooming, and feeding.
• Uplift & motivate
  —Cheer on, encourage, and support our kids through their therapeutic journeys. Your enthusiasm empowers children to reach milestones they never thought possible.
• Be an extra set of eyes, ears, and hands
  —observe patient progress, help collect data, and communicate with therapists about needs or adjustments.
• Set the stage for success
  —Set up and break down sessions like a therapy ninja: swings, obstacle courses, sensory bins, and therapy tools making sure we have what we need when we need it. Keep our therapy spaces cleaner than a NASA lab (because we take pride in what we do).
• Welcome every family
  —work at the front desk to greet patients with warmth and efficiency, check them in, and provide excellent customer service.
• Be a scheduling wizard
  —assist with appointment scheduling, rescheduling, and managing cancellations to ensure smooth clinic operations.
• Answer calls like a pro
  —help parents with questions, provide updates, and support the front desk in keeping everything on track.
• Support the entire team
  —jump in where needed, whether that means lending a hand to therapists, updating patient records, or making sure the clinic stays organized and patient-ready.
