Who We Are

Elevated Kids is a boutique, BCBA-owned early autism care provider specializing in a natural, play‑based approach to ABA that is thoughtful and relationship‑driven for toddlers and young children. We were intentionally built to be different, placing intention, quality, and meaningful impact at the center of everything we do.

What We Do

Elevated Kids provides individualized, family‑centered autism care through a boutique, interdisciplinary model designed to meet children and families where they are. Our services are delivered in the settings where young children naturally learn and thrive—homes, preschools, and community spaces—because research consistently shows this leads to the most meaningful and lasting outcomes.

Why You’ll Love Working Here (BT)

As a BT, you’ll be an essential part of our care team from day one. You’ll work in an environment where expectations are clear, support is consistent, and your work is recognized and appreciated. You’ll be guided by BCBA‑led leadership that understands the day‑to‑day realities of direct care and is accessible when you need help, feedback, or encouragement. Training, communication, and preparation are priorities here, so you can focus on connecting with children and doing meaningful work without feeling rushed or alone.

Role Overview

As a Behavior Technician at Elevated Kids, you play a meaningful, hands‑on role in supporting young children and their families through engaging, play‑based care in everyday environments. You’ll work closely with children during their daily routines, helping build foundational skills through connection, consistency, and thoughtful support.

What Success Looks Like in This Role

• Creating engaging, play‑based learning experiences that support each child’s goals
• Building warm, trusting, respectful relationships with children and their caregivers
• Implementing care plans with consistency and attention to detail, with guidance from your supervising BCBA
• Communicating openly with your team and asking questions when support is needed
• Continuing to learn, reflect, and grow with the support of training and mentorship
• Showing up on time, prepared, and ready to engage with each child
• Taking pride in being a dependable part of a child’s care team

Qualifications & What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for BTs who are dependable, compassionate, and excited to support young children through meaningful, play‑based care. Experience is important but mindset, reliability, and a willingness to learn matter most.

We’d love to hear from you if you:

• Enjoy working with young children and aren’t afraid to be silly, playful, and fully engaged
• Are comfortable getting on the floor, joining in play, and meeting children where they are
• Feel connected to sentiments such as “All Play is Okay” and “Connection over Compliance”
• Are reliable, consistent, and take pride in showing up prepared
• Communicate clearly and work well as part of a team
• Are open to feedback and eager to grow your skills
• Can meet the requirements to obtain or maintain RBT certification

Nice to have (but not required):

• Prior experience as a BT/RBT
• Coursework or background in psychology, education, or a related field
• Experience working with toddlers or young children

Training & Support

At Elevated Kids, training is an ongoing, supportive process designed to help you feel confident and successful in your role. Our Clinical Quality & Empowerment (CQE) Team exists to ensure every BT feels prepared, supported, and empowered to deliver high‑quality, play‑based care.

Each BT is thoughtfully paired with a dedicated CQE coach who provides individualized guidance and encouragement. During the first 90 days, you’ll receive structured coaching focused on building confidence and fidelity in Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBI). While the first 90 days provide a strong foundation, coaching does not stop there. Ongoing support, feedback, and skill refinement continue throughout your time at Elevated Kids, ensuring you’re always growing and supported.

In addition to CQE coaching, you’ll receive weekly, in‑person clinical supervision from your supervising BCBA. Together, these layers of support ensure you’re never working in isolation and always have access to feedback, problem‑solving, and mentorship.

What you can expect:

• Assignment to a CQE coach for individualized support and skill development
• A structured 90‑day coaching period focused on NDBI fidelity and confidence
• Weekly, in‑person supervision with your supervising BCBA
• Ongoing feedback, encouragement, and opportunities for growth
• A team that prioritizes learning, quality, and empowerment over pressure

What You’ll Need for This Role

To be successful in this role, we’re looking for individuals who bring reliability, warmth, and a genuine interest in working with young children. The following requirements help ensure a safe, supportive experience for the families we serve.

• Ability to obtain and maintain RBT certification, as required, within 120 days of hire
• Bachelor’s degree in psychology, ABA, education, or a related field strongly preferred (candidates with other backgrounds are encouraged to apply)
• Ability to pass required background checks and employment screenings
• Reliable transportation and the ability to travel to assigned settings, as needed
• Physical ability to engage in play‑based care, including getting on the floor, moving with children, and participating in active play
• Strong communication skills and comfort working as part of a team

We know great BTs come from many different paths. If you’re dependable, eager to learn, and excited to support children through meaningful, play‑based care, we encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every preferred qualification.

Location & Service Area

This role supports families within the city of Austin and the surrounding area, with services provided across home, community, and preschool‑based settings. Scheduling is planned thoughtfully and collaboratively, and candidates should be comfortable commuting up to 30 minutes as part of their role.

Please submit your application, and a member of our team will be in touch to share next steps. Our interview process is designed to be thoughtful, transparent, and respectful of your time.
