Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Child Sense Full time $80,000 - $119,000 per year

Paediatric Occupational Therapist – Full or Part Time | Leichhardt, NSW

Are you looking to develop your clinical practice? Do you have a vision for how you would like to provide occupational therapy? Would you like to grow and develop towards values you have in therapy practice?

At Child Sense, we offer a unique opportunity to develop your clinical skills in a values-led environment where your interests, goals, and work-life balance matter.

Child Sense is a vibrant paediatric occupational therapy clinic located in Leichhardt, servicing the Inner West of Sydney. Our approach is centred around long-term therapist growth, innovation, and wellbeing. We support a range of children with developmental, sensory, motor, cognitive, emotional, and social challenges—through both clinic-based and community services.

The clinic in Leichhardt contains a number of large sensorimotor gym rooms, however a mix of services are provided in order to meet the best functional outcomes for clients whether that be in clinic or the community. To reduce travel demands, community sessions are mostly grouped together within the same area, with travel times typically within a 15 minute distance, with maximum travel time of 30minutes.

Our service collaborates with a range of community organisations to offer therapeutic consultation and support for families who otherwise would not be able to access services.

What We Offer:

  • A thorough induction into occupational therapy practice with a graded increase in caseload and learning to develop a therapist's clinical practice skills and confidence.
  • Competitive salary: $80,000–$119,000 (based on experience)
  • 5 weeks annual leave
  • Flexible hours to support family life and personal commitments

  • A strong professional development program, including:

  • Weekly individual supervision

  • Regular journal reviews, case studies, and conferences
  • Internal and external training
  • CPD funding
  • A collaborative team of OTs and speech pathologists
  • Onsite underground parking, community amenities nearby
  • A great team culture—plus a fully stocked snack drawer

Applicant Criteria:

  • Suitable for new graduate applicants
  • AHPRA registered OT (or undergoing approval for registration)
  • Australian resident with a current driver's licence and own vehicle
  • Experience or interest in working with a wide range of developmental needs is of benefit but not essential
  • Passionate about building your practice around your values

Join us and be part of a team that supports not only our clients but your personal and professional journey.
