Job description

Become a Behavior Technician (RBT/BT) Supporting Children in Queens

Jamaica, Queens | Clinic & Home-Based Services

Let’s be real: not every BT/RBT job feels meaningful.

Some places hand you a session plan and expect you to “just run it.”
AtNew Life Behavior Solutions (NLBS), you’re not just implementing therapy—you’re part of the reason a child learns to communicate, connect, and succeed in everyday life.

This is the kind of work where the wins are real:
A first word.
A successful transition without a tantrum.
A child playing alongside peers for the first time.

And you get to be part of that—every single day.

This is an Opportunity to:

Build meaningful relationships with children and families
Learn hands-on ABA skills that translate into long-term career growth
Be part of a supportive, team-driven environment
Make a real impact—daily, not someday

You enjoy working with children and know how to build trust through play, patience, and consistency.

You like being active, engaged, and learning by doing—not sitting behind a desk all day.

A Team Player

You take feedback well, ask questions, and want to improve your skills.

A Calm Problem-solver

When behaviors get challenging, you stay patient, follow the plan, and support the child through it.

A Small-Wins Celebrator

You understand that progress comes in steps—and you celebrate each one.

(or just really great at what you do)
Whether this is your career path or a stepping stone, you want to do it well.

We're the kind of company where...

You’re trained, supported, and never left guessing.
You’ll work under experienced BCBAs who model, coach, and give you real-time feedback—not just check in once a month.

You’re more than “just a tech.”
Your role is respected. Your insights matter. You’re a critical part of each child’s progress.

You learn skills that actually grow your career.
Whether you want to become an RBT, BCBA, or stay a high-level technician, we invest in your development.

You work in environments that reflect real life.
Sessions happen in the clinic, home, and community—so skills actually generalize.

You’re part of something bigger.
We serve families in Jamaica, Queens—an underserved community where your work directly increases access to care.

What You'll Do

• Implement individualized ABA programs designed by a BCBA
• Work 1:1 with children in clinic, home, or community settings
• Teach communication, social, daily living, and play skills
• Support behavior reduction using evidence-based strategies
• Follow behavior intervention plans (BIPs) and teaching procedures
• Collaborate with your supervising BCBA and participate in training
• Maintain professionalism with families and team members

What You Bring:

• High school diploma required; Bachelor’s degree (or in progress) preferred
• Experience working with children (ABA experience a plus, but not required)
• Strong communication and willingness to learn
• Reliable, punctual, and professional
• Ability to be active during sessions (sitting, standing, playing, lifting up to ~45 lbs if needed)
• RBT certification (or willingness to obtain within a specified timeframe—we can support you)

Why Join NLBS?

Because this isn’t just a job—it’s where you build skills, confidence, and purpose.

At NLBS, you’ll see your impact in:

• Children gaining independence and communication skills
• Families feeling supported and hopeful
• Your own growth as a professional

You won’t just show up to sessions—you’ll be part of changing lives.
