Pediatric Physical Therapist

About Us

Playabilities for Sensational Kids is a dynamic, multi-disciplinary pediatric clinic specializing in occupational, physical, and speech therapy. We provide personalized, innovative, and client-centered therapy services to children with neurodevelopmental disabilities, including developmental delays, autism, and sensory processing disorders. Through engaging, play-based therapy, our team fosters growth, confidence, and independence, ensuring that every child receives the support they need to thrive.

At Playabilities, we believe in doing better—for children, families, and the future of therapy. Our journey began with a simple but powerful idea: to break down the barriers that prevent children from receiving the services they need and deserve. We are committed to creating a world where therapy isn’t limited by funding or structure but driven by possibility and passion.

Our team at Playabilities doesn’t just provide therapy—we build a movement that redefines what pediatric therapy can be. Our work is guided by five core values that shape our culture and mission, and every day, our team brings these values to life:

• Passionate About Making a Difference – We are energized through serving others. Every action we take is driven by our commitment to improving the lives of children and families.
• Learn and Innovate – We strive for personal and professional growth to continuously better serve our company and community. We embrace change and new ideas.
• Do the Right Thing – We prioritize relationships and make all decisions, especially people decisions, with integrity. Trust is at the heart of everything we do.
• We Build a Village – Connection is the foundation of our services. We create meaningful relationships, ensuring families and professionals feel supported every step of the way.
• Share Joy and Have Fun - Therapy should be empowering and joyful. We help families achieve and maintain "joie de vivre" - the joy of life - through our work.

Your Role

At Playabilities, we are seeking a Pediatric Physical Therapist to bring our mission to life through personalized, creative, and play-based therapy. This is a meaningful opportunity for someone passionate about working with children and families, using innovative techniques to design individualized treatment plans that foster growth, independence, and confidence. You’ll manage the therapy experience for each child, ensuring consistent support throughout their journey. While sessions are primarily one-on-one, you’ll also engage with team members during shared activities to enhance each child’s experience.

In this role, you’ll help children build the strength, coordination, and mobility needed to thrive—promoting joy in movement and empowering every child to reach their full potential. Whether improving balance and endurance or enhancing motor skills, your expertise and creativity will make a lasting impact. Every day, you’ll play a vital part in shaping brighter futures and expanding the reach of our mission in the lives of children and their families.

You are also certified in Basic Life Support (BLS), ensuring you’re prepared to respond effectively in emergency situations.

• A Problem-Solver at Heart: You excel at using your expertise to design and implement therapy techniques that are fun, engaging, and tailored to each child’s unique needs. You approach every therapy session with creativity and a passion for making a difference.
• Collaborative Team Player: You thrive in a team-oriented environment and understand that the best outcomes come from collaboration. You actively work with families and interdisciplinary team members to ensure holistic care for each child, creating a supportive network that promotes growth.
• Strong Communication Skills: Your clear and compassionate communication allows you to build trust with families, caregivers, and team members. You ensure everyone is aligned on treatment goals and progress, and encourage an open and supportive environment. You use neuro-affirming language that respects individual experiences and strengths, helping create a space where all voices feel heard, valued, and understood.
• Commitment to Professional Growth: Driven by a desire to learn, you are always looking to grow both personally and professionally. You stay up-to-date with the latest trends and techniques in pediatric therapy, embracing innovative approaches that help children succeed in new ways.

Our goal is to lead pediatric therapy in the Midwest and become the clinic of choice for families, shaping the future of pediatric therapy, and making a lasting impression in children’s lives.
• Growth Opportunities: Whether you’re a student, just starting in your career, or bringing years of experience, we’re dedicated to helping you grow and advance. We provide Continuing Education Units (CEUs) to ensure your skills stay current and refined, so you can continuously enhance your expertise. Our Clinical Ladders programoffers a structured framework to support your progression, helping you evolve from foundational skills to mastery in specialized treatments. With mentorship, advancement scholarships, and opportunities to demonstrate your unique abilities, we’re here to support your journey and empower you to reach new heights in your career.
• A Village of Care & Collaboration: We are dedicated to being the best place to work for therapists, where collaboration across disciplines creates a vibrant and supportive community. At Playabilities, we’re seeking passionate individuals who thrive in a dynamic, collaborative setting and are eager to make a meaningful impact in the lives of children and families. Here, you’ll be part of a team that supports and empowers each other, cultivating an atmosphere where every contribution is valued and celebrated.
• Competitive Compensation: We value the hard work and dedication of our team, and we demonstrate it through a guaranteed base salary, along with monthly and yearly performance-based bonuses. Your contributions will be recognized and rewarded, all while spreading joy every day.
• Premium Benefits: We offer a comprehensive benefits package to support your health and well-being. Full-time employees enjoy health, dental, vision and life insurance, along with employer-paid-short-term disability. The package includes competitive paid time off (PTO), 8 paid holidays per year, and a 401(k) plan to support your long-term financial goals.
