Now Hiring! 

Speech-Language Pathology Assistant (SLPA)

Neurodiversity-Affirming | Play-Based | Relationship-Centered

Full Time / Part-Time Available | Afternoons Preferred | In-Home + Clinic | Pediatric

Tiny Babbles Speech Therapy is growing — and we’re looking for a truly exceptional SLPA to join our team.

• Not just skilled.

• Not just experienced.

• But deeply aligned.

 

We are a neurodiversity-affirming, strengths-based pediatric practice serving families in home and clinic settings. We believe connection comes before compliance, regulation before expectation, and collaboration over hierarchy.

If you light up talking about child-led therapy, gestalt language processing, and honoring autonomy — keep reading.

Who We Are

Tiny Babbles Speech Therapy provides relationship-based, play-centered speech therapy for toddlers and young children. We specialize in early intervention and support autistic and neurodivergent children through a strengths-based lens.

Our therapy is:

• Neurodiversity-affirming

• Trauma-informed and willing to learn more

• Play-based and child-led

• Sensory-aware and willing to collaborate with OTs

• Family-collaborative

• Anti-ableist in philosophy and practice

• We value curiosity over control and connection over compliance.

Who You Are (Our Unicorn SLPA)

You:

• Are deeply aligned with neurodiversity-affirming practices

• Understand that behavior is communication

• Are comfortable supporting autistic children without using compliance-based strategies

• Value regulation, autonomy, and authentic communication

• Love working with toddlers and early childhood populations

• Are warm, grounded, and reflective

• Can take feedback with curiosity and professionalism

• Communicate clearly and respectfully with families

• Thrive in both structured clinic settings and dynamic home environments

• Are available for consistent afternoon hours

• Bonus points if you:

• Have experience with gestalt language processors

• Understand sensory processing differences

• Are familiar with AAC

• Have early intervention experience

• Love floor time, messy play, and creative therapy planning

⸻

What You’ll Do

• Provide speech therapy services under SLP supervision in homes and clinic

• Implement individualized, play-based therapy plans

• Collaborate with caregivers and coach in natural routines

• Document sessions clearly and promptly

• Participate in team meetings and ongoing learning

• Contribute ideas and creative energy to the practice

• This is not a “sit at the table and drill articulation” role.

• This is get-on-the-floor, co-regulate, model language, and build trust work.

Schedule

• Part-time/Full-time available

• Afternoon availability preferred

• Combination of in-home visits and clinic sessions preferred

• Potential to grow hours with the right fit

What We Offer

• Supportive, collaborative supervision

• A practice culture rooted in respect and shared values

• Professional growth in neurodiversity-affirming care

• Flexibility and autonomy

• A team that truly cares

• Requirements

• Active SLPA license (California)

• Reliable transportation for in-home sessions

• CPR certification

• Passion for ethical, affirming pediatric therapy
   

Why This Role Is Different

• We are not looking for someone who wants to “fix” children.

• We are looking for someone who wants to support them.

• We don’t measure success by compliance or eye contact.

• We measure it by connection, confidence, and communication growth.

• If that resonates deeply, we’d love to meet you.
