Job Description
Job DescriptionPediatric Occupational Therapist (OT) or Physical Therapist (PT)
Part-Time Afternoons (26pm) or Full-Time (40 hrs/week)
Chatterbox Pediatric Therapy | Clinician-Owned | Interdisciplinary Team
Families need care, and we hate waitlists.
Were growing our OT/PT teamwithout sacrificing ethics.
Relocating to Savannah/Pooler?
Savannah offers coastal living, a walkable historic city vibe, great food/arts, mild winters, and easy access to the water (hello, Tybee). Pooler adds a convenient, family-friendly feel with quick access to Savannah and the airport.
How Our Pay Model Works (and why it may look different at first glance)
Some clinics pay only for direct treatment time (or per visit). We dont.
At Chatterbox, youre paid hourly as a W-2 employeefor the full job: direct care, caregiver coaching, documentation, collaboration, team meetings, cancellations, and administrative time.
Dont pass this role by at first glance if youre comparing hourly rates to per-visit offers. Those models often pay only for face-to-face minutes while the work that protects quality happens unpaid or after hours. Our model is built for ethical care and sustainable workdaysbecause all of that work counts.
This role is W-2 employment (not a 1099/independent contractor position).
Non-Negotiables + Benefits
- Care is driven by clinical need, not revenue targets
- Ethical documentation supported with built-in doc time
- Clinician judgment is respected and protected
- Interdisciplinary collaboration is the norm (youre not on an island)
- CEU stipend + a culture that values clinical curiosity
- Early Intervention opportunities if you want them
- Caseload can be tailored: outpatient, EI, or a blend
