    + Full benefits package offered, including medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and more

     

    Why This Role?

     

    This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact on early childhood development in a supportive, collaborative environment that values play-based learning and teamwork.

    Qualifications

    + Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy from an accredited program

    + Active Massachusetts OT license (or eligibility to obtain)

    + Experience with preschool-aged children (ages 3–5) preferred

    + Familiarity with or willingness to learn play-based and transdisciplinary assessment models
