💵 Starting at $19/hour ($22.50 once RBT certified - all training paid) 
🎓 Paid Training & Certification
🕒 Daytime shifts (starting at 8am, 9am, 1pm, or 4pm) & Saturday availability needed

At North Shore Pediatric Therapy (NSPT), we do more than provide therapy—we create spaces where autistic children are respected, supported, and empowered. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care or outdated models. Our approach is assent-based, neuroaffirming, and team-driven, with deep respect for each child’s individuality, autonomy, and potential.

As a Behavior Technician, you’ll be part of that mission. You’ll help kids build communication, independence, and confidence—and you’ll be supported every step of the way by a team that values your growth just as much as theirs.

What a Day Looks Like:

Being a Behavior Technician is active, hands-on, and deeply meaningful. You’ll spend most of your day working 1:1 with kids (ages 2–12), helping them build skills that support their growth at home, school, and in everyday life.

Here’s what that actually looks like:

• Playing games on the floor to work on language or social skills
• Helping a child learn how to ask for help, tie their shoes, or transition between tasks
• Managing tough moments like meltdowns or elopement with patience and a calm presence
• Tracking progress and taking session notes so your BCBA can update therapy plans
• Communicating with your team throughout the day to problem-solve, celebrate wins, and adjust support as needed
• Staying flexible—every child is different, and every day brings something new

It’s not a desk job—it’s a roll-up-your-sleeves, be-there-in-the-moment kind of role. But if you love working with kids, it’s one of the most rewarding ways to spend your day.

Why North Shore Pediatric Therapy:

We’re not your typical ABA clinic—and we’re proud of that. At NSPT, we don’t force compliance or chase cookie-cutter milestones. Instead, we prioritize:

• Assent-based care that honors boundaries and centers the child’s voice.
• Collaborative, interdisciplinary teamwork—you’ll work alongside OTs, SLPs, and mental health professionals.
• Supportive leadership and mentorship, with real-time coaching and thoughtful feedback.
• A people-first culture where growth is structured, wins are celebrated, and you’re never alone.

How You’ll Grow With Us:

Whether you’re here to learn or build a full career, we make sure your development is intentional and supported. You'll start with paid RBT training and certification in your first month (plus a raise once you pass) and receive performance reviews and raises every 6 months. From there, your path can look like:

• Behavior Therapist (BT) → Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) – Certified with hands-on experience and real mentorship
• RBT → Clinical Fellowship Student (ACC) → Lead ACC → Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) – For BCBA students, we help with restricted and unrestricted hours, test prep, and becoming a strong, compassionate clinician.
• RBT → Lead RBT – For those who want to grow as leaders without pursuing credentialing as a BCBA, SLP, or OT.

No matter where you’re headed, we’ll help you get there.

Perks & Benefits:

• 💪 Real-time support and mentorship from experienced clinicians
• 📆 Flexible schedules (start times at 8am, 9am, 1pm, or 3pm) that fit your life
• 🎉 Monthly team events, shoutouts, and a clinic culture that genuinely cares
• 💥 A career that makes a tangible impact on the lives of kids and families
• 🩺 Health, dental, and vision insurance for full-time team members

You're a Great Fit If You:

• Have experience working with children (babysitting, coaching, camps, classrooms, etc.)
• Are calm, flexible, and eager to learn—even in tough moments.
• Believe in supporting kids through respect and empathy, not compliance.
• Want to work somewhere that feels good and does good.
• Are curious about long-term careers in ABA, education, child psychology, OT, SLP, or mental health.

Requirements:

• Starting at $19/billable hour, with increases for experience, education, and certification. You'll increase to $22.50 once you receive your RBT certification.
• Must have the physical stamina and mobility to actively engage with children, including sitting, standing, walking, bending, lifting up to 45 pounds, and effective visual and auditory communication.
• High school diploma or GED required
• Afternoon/evening (starting at 3pm) and Saturday availability required

At NSPT, we know this work is challenging—but it’s also joyful, meaningful, and deeply rewarding. You’ll be surrounded by people who are passionate about what they do, and who care deeply about the children and team members they work with.

If you’re ready to make a difference, grow a career, and be part of a team that’s changing what care can look like—we’d love to meet you.

📍 North Shore Pediatric Therapy — 1657 W Cortland Street, Chicago, IL (Bucktown)
💵 $18/hour to start. $20/hour once RBT certified (paid training)
🕒 Multiple schedules available — mornings, afternoons, and Saturdays

This is an entry-level ABA therapy position at North Shore Pediatric Therapy. No prior clinical experience required. We're hiring for both full-time and part-time roles, and we will train you, pay for your RBT certification, and give you real mentorship from day one.

What we need is someone who is good with kids, stays calm when things get hard, and wants to build something — a career in behavioral health, child psychology, ABA, special education, occupational therapy, or speech-language pathology.

What a Behavior Technician Does

As a Behavior Technician (BT) at North Shore Pediatric Therapy, you work 1:1 with autistic children ages 2–12. You implement therapy plans built by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and show up consistently, session after session, as a steady, supportive presence in each child's day.

You'll spend the vast majority of your day with kids. You'll be on your feet. You'll be engaged. You'll be the most consistent adult in some of these kids' days, and that matters more than most job descriptions will tell you.

What We Do Differently

At North Shore Pediatric Therapy, we practice assent-based, neuroaffirming care — which means we follow each child's lead, honor their boundaries, and build trust before we build skills. You'll work alongside occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and mental health professionals in a genuinely interdisciplinary environment.

Available Schedules

We have two tracks open at our Bucktown location. Both start at $18/hour with the same RBT certification path.

Full-Time:

• Monday–Friday, 8am or 9am start
• Full benefits package (see below)

Part-Time:

• 8am, 12pm or 3pm start + Saturdays required
• Minimum 15 hours per week

• $22.50/hour upon RBT certification (within your first month — fully paid and supported)
• Performance-based raises every 6 months

• Free in-house CEUs for all team members
• Clear growth tracks: BT → RBT → Lead RBT, or RBT → BCBA pathway with supervised hours and test prep support

Full-Time Benefits

The following apply to full-time team members:

Time Off — 22+ paid days in your first year:

• $500+ referral bonus
• Free in-house CEUs
• Paid RBT training and certification

Who Thrives Here

You don't need a clinical resume. You need real experience with kids — babysitting, coaching, camps, classroom work, tutoring, youth ministry, etc.

You're a great fit for this behavior technician role if you:

• Stay calm and grounded when things get hard
• Find meaning in showing up consistently for someone who needs it
• Can take feedback and use it without getting defensive
• Are curious about careers in ABA, behavioral health, child psychology, special education, occupational therapy, or speech-language pathology

Requirements:

North Shore Pediatric Therapy | 1318 Waukegan Rd., Glenview, IL
Serving Glenview, Northbrook, Wilmette, Evanston, Skokie, Morton Grove, and the surrounding North Shore communities

📍 North Shore Pediatric Therapy — 7250 N Cicero Ave, Suite 220, Lincolnwood, IL
💵 $19/hour to start. $22.50/hour once RBT certified (paid training)
🕒 Multiple schedules available — mornings and evenings, including Saturdays

This is an entry-level ABA therapy position at North Shore Pediatric Therapy. No prior clinical experience required. We're hiring for both full-time and part-time roles, and we will train you, pay for your RBT certification, and give you real mentorship from day one.

What we need is someone who is good with kids, stays calm when things get hard, and wants to build something — a career in behavioral health, child psychology, ABA, special education, occupational therapy, or speech-language pathology.

What a Behavior Technician Does

As a Behavior Technician (BT) at North Shore Pediatric Therapy, you work 1:1 with autistic children ages 2–12. You implement therapy plans built by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and show up consistently, session after session, as a steady, supportive presence in each child's day.

You'll spend the vast majority of your day with kids. You'll be on your feet. You'll be engaged. You'll be the most consistent adult in some of these kids' days, and that matters more than most job descriptions will tell you.

What We Do Differently

At North Shore Pediatric Therapy, we practice assent-based, neuroaffirming care — which means we follow each child's lead, honor their boundaries, and build trust before we build skills. You'll work alongside occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and mental health professionals in a genuinely interdisciplinary environment.

Available Schedules

We have two tracks open at our Lincolnwood location. Both start at $19/hour with the same RBT certification path.

Full-Time:

• Monday–Friday, 8am or 9am start
• Full benefits package (see below)

Part-Time:

• 3pm start + Saturdays required
• Minimum 15 hours per week
• Best for: students, career changers, or anyone building toward full-time

Pay, Benefits & Growth

• $19/hour to start
• $22.50/hour upon RBT certification (within your first month — fully paid and supported)
• Performance-based raises every 6 months
• $500+ referral bonus when someone you refer gets hired
• Free in-house CEUs for all team members
• Clear growth tracks: BT → RBT → Lead RBT, or RBT → BCBA pathway with supervised hours and test prep support

Full-Time Benefits

The following apply to full-time team members:

Time Off — 22+ paid days in your first year:

• 13 accrued PTO days
• 7 paid holidays (Memorial Day, Labor Day, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Day + 1/2 days on New Year's Eve and Christmas Eve)
• 2 personal days

Health Benefits:

• Medical insurance — Gracent covers 75% of the premium on average
• Dental and vision insurance
• Telemedicine for all employees
• Basic life, AD&D, hospital indemnity, and disability insurance
• 5 tax-free spending accounts (FSA, HSA, dependent care, and more)

Retirement:

Career & Growth:

• $1,000+ scholarships for employees pursuing a Master's or PhD in a clinical field
• Free in-house CEUs for all team members
• BCBA supervision hours and test prep support for graduate students

North Shore Pediatric Therapy | 7250 N Cicero Ave, Suite 220, Lincolnwood, IL
Serving Lincolnwood, Skokie, Evanston, Rogers Park, Albany Park, Peterson Park, and the surrounding North Side Chicago and North Shore communities

Annual compensation: $82,000–$110,000
Job Type: Full-time
Work Setting: In-person, clinic
Location: Vernon Hills, IL

Let’s be real: not all therapy companies are created equal. Some places give you a title and a caseload. At North Shore Pediatric Therapy, you get something different: a career you’re proud to talk about because you can point to the kids who are speaking their first words, eating family meals for the first time, or finally thriving in a classroom because of the work you and your team led.

We’re the kind of company where:

• You’ll actually feel good wearing the swag, because it represents a place that values assent-based, ethical care and backs clinicians with real resources.
• Unlike most providers, our centers practice true interdisciplinary care. BCBAs, SLPs, and OTs providers working side by side, often co-treating, so kids get support that reflects the whole picture of who they are.
• When someone asks, “So what do you do?” you won’t just say “I’m a BCBA.” You’ll tell them you work at one of the few companies that refuses blanket 40-hour recommendations. While others default to preset buckets, we use a framework that considers diagnostic severity, adaptive functioning, age, access to other therapies, and quality of life. The result? Recommendations that are individualized, ethical, and built around the child and family in front of us.
• Growth isn’t a buzzword here — it’s a path. Many of our leaders, including Clinical Directors, started as BCBAs at NSPT. We’re known for giving clinicians the mentorship, training, and opportunities they need to step into leadership when they’re ready.

This is an opportunity to do the best work of your career — guiding dedicated RBTs, solving meaningful clinical challenges, and impacting the lives of families every single day.

Who Will Love This Job:

• An RBT whisperer: You find joy in coaching, modeling, and seeing your RBTs gain confidence with every session.
• A reinforcement master: You don’t just teach reinforcement, you live it — high-fives, goofy cheers, and genuine praise are your love language.
• A data detective: You get a thrill from seeing graphs climb, spotting trends in behavior, and using data to tell the story of progress.
• A behavior puzzle-solver: Whether it’s a tricky tantrum, a stubborn skill, or a curveball day, you dive in with creativity and calm.
• A family translator: You can take ABA jargon and turn it into simple, supportive guidance that parents actually understand and appreciate.
• A little bit playful: You know therapy works best when it’s fun, and you’re not afraid to get on the floor, use silly voices, or celebrate tiny wins like they’re championship moments.

What You’ll Do

• Provide clinical oversight and supervision for RBTs.
• Write and monitor individualized treatment plans that reflect ethical, assent-based care.
• Coach, mentor, and train RBTs to ensure best practices.
• Partner with families to set meaningful goals and celebrate progress.
• Collaborate with SLPs and OTs providers to deliver wraparound care.
• Ensure documentation and treatment plans meet high clinical standards.
• Build a culture of support, growth, and collaboration.

What You Bring:

• Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), licensed in the state of Texas and in good standing.
• Strong communicator who is proactive and detail-oriented.
• Passion for serving children and families, especially those with autism and developmental needs.
• Ability to perform essential functions such as sitting, standing, bending, and occasionally lifting up to 45 lbs. Reasonable accommodations may be made.

Why Join North Shore Pediatric Therapy?

Because being a BCBA here means more than running programs — it means shaping futures, including your own. You’ll see your influence in:

• Kids who thrive because of the care you provide.
• RBTs who grow under your coaching and guidance.
• Families who finally feel supported and understood.

And because we know great leaders deserve great support, here’s what we offer:

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family.
• 25+ days off in your first year through PTO + 7 paid holidays.
• 401(k) with company match to plan for your future.
• $500 Professional development stipend + free In-house CEUs — we invest in your growth.
• BCBA bonus program: Earn $50 for every billable hour 30+. Your hard work and efficiency don’t go unnoticed.
• A supportive environment where feedback fuels growth, creativity sparks ideas, and laughter is part of the job.

We know you’re already doing incredible work where you are, but at North Shore Pediatric Therapy, we’re committed to creating an environment where you can do even more—while being supported, celebrated, and inspired along the way. Whether you’re ready to make a move or just want to explore your options, we’d love to show you what else is out there. Let’s talk about how we can help you lead, inspire, and grow in your career.
