About the job

Title: Child Development Specialist

Work Location: Cherry Hill, NJ

Job Type: Part-time

Pay: $22-$28 per hour

Our Mission:

Make a real impact. Build real skills. Grow with us.

At Positive Development, we believe that every child should have the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive, while every aspiring professional deserves a meaningful role that cultivates essential skills for their future.

Our focus is on one-on-one interactions with children on the autism spectrum, aiding their development of communication, social, and daily living skills through engaging, play-based, and relationship-centered strategies.

Why This Role Stands Out:

This is not merely an observational role; you will actively coach, connect with, and foster the growth of children, gaining invaluable experience that is directly applicable in fields such as:

  • Psychology

  • Social Work

  • Occupational Therapy

  • Speech Language Pathology

  • Education and Special Education

  • Counseling

  • Medicine and Health

This rewarding work requires patience, emotional maturity, and dedication. You will receive ongoing support from experienced clinicians and supervisors who are committed to your professional growth.

We are particularly eager to meet candidates who are:

  • Passionate about working with children and adolescents

  • Curious about human development and learning processes

  • Patient, empathetic, and enthusiastic

  • Reliable and committed to maintaining a consistent schedule (children thrive on stability!)

  • Comfortable working closely with families in a home-based setting

Ideal candidates may include: education majors, psychology students, pre-med students, nursing students, and those passionate about child development.

About Positive Development

Positive Development is dedicated to empowering children with autism through individualized support and skill-building activities. Our goal is to create a nurturing environment where every child can achieve their fullest potential while equipping professionals with meaningful experiences in child development.
