About BlueSprig

BlueSprig is looking for compassionate team members to help us on our mission of changing the world for children with autism! No experience is necessary – just your dedication to helping others and willingness to learn. We offer paid training, ongoing support and mentorship with lots of potential for career growth.

In this role you will:

• Provide Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to clients in a center-based or home-based setting (paid training provided).

• Adhere to all policies and procedures, including, but not limited to, confidentiality and mandated reporting standards as set by the BlueSprig clinical team.
• Maintain appropriate social distancing, safety, and enhanced protective hygiene practices both on and off the job. (We provide PPE, caregiver communication tools and practices, and limit exposure through small work groups.)
• Communicate clearly and effectively – both orally and written – with clients, families, and colleagues.
• Attend meetings, trainings, and workshops to acquire further knowledge.

We are looking for people who:

• Have prior experience in ABA and / or working with children with autism spectrum disorder or other developmental disorders / delays.
• Are sensitive to working with an ethnically, linguistically, culturally, and economically diverse population of children.
• Have the ability to remain calm and neutral in challenging situations with clients.
• Have reliable means of transportation, a valid driver's license, and insurance.
• Have the ability to stand and stay on their feet for prolonged periods of time and bend, kneel, crouch, and lift weight of up to 50 pounds.
• Have a current and valid CPR certification.
• Have successful background clearance, driving record check, and reference checks.
• Have a high school diploma or equivalent; however, some college experience or a college degree is preferred.

At BlueSprig, we are dedicated to ensuring a level playing field for all. As part of that, we work hard to maintain our Great Place To Work ® status so that everyone is rewarded fairly and earns opportunities for bringing their whole and best selves every day, to allow for the fulfillment of our mission to change the world for children with autism.

Sometimes the confidence gap and imposter syndrome can make someone doubt themselves and reconsider applying for a job that they love. Well, we’re called BlueSprig for a reason – because we want to help everyone grow. If you want to be a part of our BlueSprig family, please apply as we would love to hear from you.
