Our dedicated administrative staff handles all scheduling, referrals, and authorizations, allowing you to focus on delivering high-quality care to your clients. We also ensure ethical caseload requirements for our BCBAs and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs).
Position Responsibilities:
- Conduct initial and yearly comprehensive assessments (e.g., ABLLS-R, VB-MAPP, ABAS-3, caregiver interviews, behavior observations) with support from RBTs.

- Provide frequent supervision and direction to supervisees.
- Complete effective and prompt documentation for daily notes, assessments, individual treatment plans, and weekly progress updates.

- Strong collaboration skills with a multidisciplinary team.
- Ability to make frequent, data-driven decisions for meaningful and personalized progress.
- Effective and professional communication skills for education and training of caregivers and supervisees.
Interviews at Child'sPlay:
Our interview process is designed to ensure that you feel confident about joining our team.

From there, we invite candidates to an in-person interview to meet members of our clinical team and observe a therapy session. By the end of the process, you will have a clear understanding of who we are and how our BCBAs contribute to children's progress.
We Can’t Wait to Meet You!
