What you’ll be doing as a Behavior Therapist

For others, this might look like reading a book, watching a video, or playing with cars. Keeping up with the energy and enthusiasm of the kiddos, actively engaging in play, and fostering a joyful atmosphere.
  • Effectively and positively communicate  with stakeholders (e.g., peers, families, supervisors) to coordinate activities, celebrate successes, and advocate for personal needs.

Job Requirements

  • Maintain an environment conducive to therapy  ensuring the play spaces are tidy, organized, and conducive to a stimulating and enjoyable experience for the children.
  • Multitask  to balance multiple actions, decisions, or conversations in the moment while assessing prioritization and safety for all parties.
  • Support teams by working cohesively as a center, neighborhood, and region.  This may include travel to nearby centers to support, when assigned.
  • Reliable transportation and valid driver’s license required.
  • Must be at least 18 years of age and have a High school diploma or GED equivalent.
  • Complete the RBT certification process within 20 days of employment by passing a 40-hour training curriculum, hands on competency assessment, registering for an exam, and passing the board’s exam.
