About FirstSteps
The FirstSteps Team is inspired by the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to achieve their fullest potential. To that end, our mission is twofold: to provide the best evidence-based, behavior analytic treatment to our children diagnosed with autism and related learning differences, and to offer a positive, collaborative, and dynamic work experience for our team. We are steadfastly committed to ongoing training and mentorship of our employees, always motivated to support the next generation of clinical leaders in our field and at FirstSteps. Our greatest reward is witnessing the rapid and joyful learning of our little ones and knowing that together, we are creating more happy days for the kids and families we serve.
Grow your clinical skills. Partner with families. Make a lasting impact.
At FirstSteps for Kids, our Lead Instructors are experienced Registered Behavior Technicians or Behavior Technicians who work side by side with in-person BCBAs to deliver exceptional ABA services and meaningful outcomes for children and families.
Unlike many ABA providers, our FirstSteps BCBAs are actively involved in treatment, providing frequent in-person coaching, collaboration, and support. You'll continue growing your own clinical skills while helping families and supporting new Clinical Trainees as they begin their careers.
The impact you'll make
Every day, you'll help children build life-changing skills, from first words and friendships to greater independence at home, school, and in their communities. Just as importantly, you'll help families experience the joy and confidence that comes from watching their child achieve milestones they once thought were out of reach. By partnering with caregivers and teaching them how to continue their child's learning outside of therapy, you'll help create meaningful progress that lasts far beyond each session.
What you'll do
Deliver high-quality ABA therapy in client homes, their schools, and in our beautiful center settings.
Partner closely with in-person BCBAs to implement individualized treatment plans and continue growing your own clinical skills.
Coach parents and caregivers so they feel confident supporting their child's learning and carrying programs into everyday routines.
Develop new Clinical Trainees using Behavior Skills Training (BST), fostering the clinical skills, confidence, and professionalism that define FirstSteps care.
Model FirstSteps values through teamwork, professionalism, positivity, and accountability.
Ensure accurate data collection and consistent implementation of treatment plans.
