Job Description

Join Us to Become a Behavior Tech Rockstar! (... and no, no formal experience required!)

  • $20–$30/hr | Flexible Schedules | Clients Near Your Home
  • In college or just graduated and figuring out your next move?
  • Want a job that actually looks good on a resume and feels meaningful?

At Precious Care ABA, you’ll spend your time helping kids learn, grow, and gain life-changing skills — all while building real, hands-on experience in behavioral health, psychology, and education.

You’ll work one-on-one with children with autism in their homes, daycare, or in the community — turning everyday moments into opportunities for learning and progress. No sitting behind a screen all day — this is a hands-on role where every session is different.

The best part? You don’t need prior ABA experience. Our experienced BCBAs will train and mentor you so you feel confident and supported.

  • Get Certified (and Get Paid for It)
  • We’ll help you become a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) — and pay you along the way.
  • Complete your 40-hour RBT course
  • Get hands-on training + support from experienced BCBAs
  • Earn a training bonus for completing the course and onboarding
  • This is real experience you can use for grad school or future careers in healthcare.

Your Superpowers

  • Work (and yes, sometimes play) one-on-one with children with autism or developmental delays, helping them build communication, social, and life skills
  • Track progress like a pro — collect data, celebrate wins, and actually see your impact
  • Work alongside families so the skills children learn in therapy carry into everyday life
  • What We’re Looking For
  • Students or grads in psychology, education, healthcare — or anyone who enjoys working with kids
  • Reliable, patient, and energetic
  • Experience with kids is a plus (babysitting, camps, coaching, teaching assistant, caregiving, etc.)
  • Ability to travel to client homes (valid driver’s license + reliable transportation)

Requirements

  • In college or recently graduated (psychology, education, healthcare a plus — but not required)
  • Reliable, patient, and energetic
  • Enjoy working with kids (this matters more than experience)
  • Experience with children is a plus (babysitting, camps, coaching, teaching assistant, caregiving, etc.)
  • Valid driver’s license + reliable transportation
  • Ability to commit to a consistent weekly schedule (especially PM hours)

Benefits & Perks

  • $20–$30/hr pay based on experience
  • Flexible schedules (perfect for students)
  • Clients close to home (we keep travel reasonable)
  • Training bonus for completing the 40-hour course + onboarding
  • Bonus programs (earn more for performance, attendance, and consistency)
  • RBT Rewards Program — get recognized and rewarded as you grow
  • Career Path Program — clear growth into advanced roles (RBT, Lead, BCBA track)
  • Referral program — earn bonuses for bringing friends on board
  • Paid sick time
