Job description

Overview

As a Behavior Technician, you’ll work directly with children to build communication, social, and daily living skills through play-based, hands-on activities. You’ll implement behavior intervention strategies, track progress through data collection, and collaborate with families and a clinical team to support each child’s development. The role is active and engaging, typically involving in-home sessions during afternoons/evenings. No prior ABA experience is required, paid training and ongoing supervision are provided. Within 90 days, you’ll be supported in earning your National certification. Overall, it’s a part-time, entry-level clinical role focused on meaningful behavior change, skill development, and improving quality of life for children and families.

Description
What You’ll Do
  • Teach Through Play: Help children build skills like communication, social interaction, and daily routines using fun, engaging activities
  • Be a Positive Role Model: Encourage progress, confidence, and independence — and celebrate wins (big and small!)
  • Stay Active: Sessions involve movement, play, and hands-on engagement
  • Track Progress: Collect session data and notes (we’ll train you on everything)
  • Support Families: Work collaboratively with families and your clinical team to support each child’s growth
Schedule & Pay
  • Pay: $18.00–$25.00/hr + Hire on Bonus
  • Schedule: Primarily weekday afternoons/evenings (3:30pm–8:00pm); some weekend availability preferred
  • Setting: Mostly in-home services, with some center-based sessions depending on client needs
  • Paid Training: Training is compensated at the same hourly rate as your clinical role
Why You’ll Love Working Here
  • Full, paid training — no ABA experience required
  • Supportive clinical supervision and mentorship
  • Growth opportunities within the company
  • Mileage reimbursement and paid drive time between clients
  • Referral bonuses
  • A meaningful role where your work truly changes lives
Requirements
  • High School Diploma or GED
  • At least 6 months of experience working with children (paid or volunteer — babysitting counts!)
  • Reliable transportation, valid driver’s license, and auto insurance
  • Ability to pass background and health screenings
  • Ability to read, write, and speak English proficiently
  • Patience, energy, and a genuine love for working with kids
Certification Requirement:

All Behavior Technicians are required to pass the BACB Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) exam by the end of their 90-day probationary period . Little Scholars Services provides training and support to help you succeed.

Company Description

We invest in our staff through comprehensive training, certification support, ongoing mentorship, and continuous professional development to ensure both client success and team growth.
