What are the responsibilities and job description for the Pediatric Physical Therapist position at PURPOSEFUL PLAY PEDIATRIC PHYSICAL THERAPY, LLC?
Purposeful Play Pediatric Therapy, LLC is seeking a South Carolina–licensed Physical Therapist to join our growing pediatric team.
At Purposeful Play, our mission is to provide high-quality, child-centered care —and to create an environment where therapists feel supported, valued, and empowered to do meaningful work.
We are a therapist-owned practice that believes therapy works best when it’s collaborative, family-centered, and grounded in real life. We value connection, communication, and care that feels purposeful for everyone involved.
We provide skilled physical and occupational therapy services to children from 0 -18 years old in their natural environments—homes, communities, and everyday spaces where children learn, move, and thrive. This allows therapists to collaborate closely with families and each child’s multidisciplinary team to support individualized, functional goals.
