About This Role
You'll work as an occupational therapist serving young children through Virtua Health's early intervention program in Colorado. This per-visit role focuses on helping infants and toddlers develop essential skills in their natural environments—typically homes and community settings. Your days involve conducting assessments, designing therapy plans, and providing direct treatment to improve motor skills, sensory processing, and daily living abilities. You'll document progress, collaborate with families and other service providers, and adjust approaches based on each child's needs. This position suits therapists who enjoy working with very young children, value family-centered care, and prefer flexible scheduling. Per-visit compensation structures let you control your schedule while building a consistent caseload.

Frequently asked questions
What license do I need to apply?
An active state license in your discipline (PT, OT, SLP, LCSW, LPC, BCBA, etc.) in good standing. Therapy licensure is state-specific — the PT, OT, and ASLP-IC compacts let you practice in member states without a separate license.
Is this a school-year or year-round position?
School-based therapy roles typically follow a 9- or 10-month school-year calendar with summers off. Outpatient, hospital, home-health, and telehealth positions are year-round with PTO. Both options are widely available — check the job description for specifics.
What experience is expected?
Most therapy roles welcome new grads through mid-career clinicians. Specialty positions (acute care, NICU, pediatric feeding, hand therapy) typically prefer 2+ years plus relevant certifications.
