Help Children Build Skills That Change Everyday Life

Help a child participate more confidently in the classroom, develop independence with daily routines, or discover new ways to engage with the world.

NorTek Medical Staffing is recruiting a Pediatric Occupational Therapist for Sound Children’s Therapy, a multidisciplinary pediatric practice where individualized care, family involvement, and collaboration guide treatment.

This opportunity combines meaningful pediatric work with flexible scheduling, clinical mentorship, and a supportive team. You will work with children whose needs may include sensory processing differences, fine motor and visual motor delays, emotional regulation, motor coordination, executive functioning, feeding challenges, and daily living skills.

The Opportunity

Deliver thoughtful, evidence-based care in a child-centered environment that respects neurodevelopmental differences and each family’s priorities. Services are primarily in person, with opportunities to collaborate across clinic and community partner settings as assigned.

You will work alongside other clinicians and communicate with families, educators, caregivers, and other care partners to help children carry progress into everyday activities.

What You Will Do

• Complete formal and informal evaluations of children’s occupational performance and functional needs.
• Develop individualized treatment plans with measurable, meaningful goals.
• Provide engaging therapeutic interventions matched to each child’s abilities, interests, and needs.
• Address sensory processing, fine motor coordination, visual motor integration, self-regulation, play, and self-care.
• Provide feeding-related interventions when appropriate to your training, competence, and assigned caseload.
• Monitor progress and adjust treatment approaches using clinical findings and family feedback.
• Teach caregivers practical strategies that support participation between sessions.
• Maintain accurate, timely evaluations, treatment notes, and progress documentation.
• Collaborate with the multidisciplinary team and relevant outside professionals.
• Maintain professional, ethical, and safety standards throughout care delivery.

Qualifications

• Degree from an accredited occupational therapy program.
• Current Washington occupational therapy license, or eligibility to obtain licensure before beginning practice.
• OTR certification.
• Strong clinical reasoning, organization, and communication skills.
• Ability to build trusting relationships with children and caregivers.
• Commitment to individualized, evidence-based pediatric care.
• Pediatric experience is preferred, particularly in sensory processing, developmental differences, motor development, or feeding.

Compensation and Benefits

• $46–$63 per hour, based on experience and qualifications.
• Sign-on bonus and relocation assistance available, subject to agreed terms.
• Flexible full-time and part-time scheduling.
• Optional weekend opportunities with differential pay.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance for eligible employees.
• 401(k) and paid time off.
• Continuing education support and license reimbursement.
• Travel reimbursement and paid travel time between assigned clinic and partner sites, when applicable.
• Mentorship and opportunities to develop clinical interests.

At $63 per hour, a 40-hour, 52-week schedule equals approximately $131,040 in annual base wages. An eligible first-year total compensation package may exceed $140,000 when applicable incentives and benefits are included. Actual earnings, benefit eligibility, incentive amounts, and payment terms depend on the final offer; part-time compensation varies with hours worked.
