Part Time Feeding Therapist (Philadelphia)

About the Job

Join Our Collaborative, Child-Centered Team in Philadelphia!

At Expansion Speech Therapy , we believe in the power of joy, collaboration, and connection. We're not just a practice - we're a passionate, tight-knit team dedicated to helping children and families thrive.

We're looking for a Part-Tme Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) to serve our Philadelphia-area families . The ideal candidate has expertise in feeding and swallowing and is eager to work in a supportive, energetic environment where clinical excellence and work-life balance go hand in hand.

Whether you're guiding an infant and parents during breast or bottle-feeding, helping a toddler explore new textures, brainstorming goals with a teammate, or celebrating a child's first successful bite - you'll be surrounded by colleagues who genuinely love what they do. At Expansion, clinicians learn from one another, collaborate across disciplines, and grow together .

What You'll Do:

Direct Patient Care (approximately 75%):

• Evaluate and treat infants, toddlers, and children with feeding and swallowing needs in home, school, and community settings across Philadelphia.
• Use play-based, sensory-rich, and evidence-informed strategies to support oral-motor development, safe swallowing, and positive mealtime experiences.
• Collaborate closely with families and interdisciplinary partners (OT, PT, GI, lactation, nutrition, and more) to develop personalized, meaningful goals .
• Coach caregivers with empathy, clarity, and humor to reduce stress and build confidence around daily feeding routines.

Documentation & Professional Growth (approximately 25%):

• Maintain accurate, thoughtful documentation that reflects progress and clinical reasoning.
• Stay curious - pursue continuing education, share knowledge with teammates, and contribute to our collaborative learning culture.
• Advocate for feeding therapy in the Philadelphia community - one pediatrician, daycare provider, or snack-time success at a time.

Who You Are:

• A licensed SLP (CCC-SLP) in Pennsylvania with a passion for feeding and swallowing.
• Experienced in pediatric feeding and swallowing ( minimum 2 years preferred ).
• Skilled in evaluation and treatment; experience with VFSS or FEES interpretation is a plus.
• A team player who communicates openly, listens deeply, and values diverse perspectives.
• Flexible, compassionate, and playful - because feeding therapy is equal parts science and soul .
• Interested in working in the home and community settings within Philadelphia.
• Please note: We are not accepting clinical fellows for this position at this time.

Why You'll Love Working With Us:

• Supportive culture: We're serious about teamwork, mentorship, and celebrating wins - big and small.
• Flexible scheduling: Design a caseload that fits your life - part-time with room to grow.
• Professional development: Access to CEU support, collaboration with seasoned feeding specialists, and opportunities for career growth.
• Competitive compensation: Fair pay, benefits options, and meaningful work-life balance.
• Joyful work: We believe feeding therapy should feel positive and empowering - for the child, the family, and you.
