Join Our Growing Team: Full-Time Pediatric COTA/L

We’re growing, and our team is looking for another wonderful COTA to join us!

At Rainbow Occupational Therapy, we believe the best care happens when we put real human connection first - between our therapists, our kids, and their families. We’re a pediatric practice that truly prioritizes quality time and strong relationships over rigid productivity quotas, and we’d love to find a like-minded Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant who shares that heart.

  • Private homes
  • Daycares
  • Schools

What We Offer

We care deeply about taking care of our team so you can focus on loving what you do:

  • Flexible Scheduling: Work-life balance actually matters here. We’ll work with you to build a daily flow that makes sense for your life.
  • Support for Your Growth: We offer reimbursement for Continuing Education and License Renewals because we love seeing our team expand their skills.
  • Time Off to Recharge: Paid Time Off (PTO) eligibility starts after three months of employment.
  • Full-Time Stability: Join a dynamic, expanding local practice with a steady and supportive environment.

Who You Are

  • Someone who leads with heart, warmth, and respect for every family.

  • Comfortable traveling to see kiddos throughout the coastal NC region.
