About Children's Specialized ABA

Children's Specialized ABA is part of the Children's Specialized Hospital Autism Center of Excellence. We serve children with ASD by combining clinical innovation, whole-child care, and personalized therapy.

Ready to Make a Difference?

Your bilingual skills aren't just valuable: they're essential. Many of the families we serve rely on Spanish to communicate about their child's care. By joining our team, you'll be the bridge that ensures every child gets the services they need and every parent feels heard and supported.

If you're fluent in English and Spanish, passionate about helping children, and ready to start a meaningful career, we'll provide full training and stand by you every step of the way.

Why Join Us?

• Premium pay for bilingual (English/Spanish) candidates
• Paid training and exam fees - No RBT certification? No problem!
• Career growth opportunities - We promote from within

Position Overview

As a Bilingual Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), you'll provide one-on-one ABA therapy to children with ASD, helping them build communication, social, and daily living skills. You'll work closely with a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and a collaborative care team to deliver compassionate care.

Not certified yet? We'll train you and cover your RBT exam cost!

What You’ll Do:

• Implement behavior acquisition and reduction plans
• Use electronic tools such as CentralReach to conduct preference assessments and track data.

What You’ll Need:

• Minimum age: 18 years
• High school diploma or equivalent
• Reliable transportation (travel up to 20 miles)

• Any experience working with children (childcare, teaching, early childhood) is a great foundation!
• Physically able to perform job duties (kneeling, bending, lifting up to 40 lbs.)

Work Location:

This position will provide in-home services to clients located within a radius of approximately 20 miles from your home. Candidates must have reliable transportation and be comfortable traveling between client locations.

• Supportive, inclusive culture where your voice, ideas, and empathy are truly valued.
• Accrued paid sick time and benefits available for eligible employees.
• Referral bonus program - help us grow the team and get rewarded.
