Paediatric Occupational Therapist – Start Small, Grow Steady, Stay Supported

Doreen's Occupational Therapy Services

Geelong, Surf Coast & Bellarine (Hybrid – Outreach & Work From Home)

Sub-contracted role | $80 – $100 per hour


About Us

At Doreen's OT, we're more than a therapy service – we're a values-driven, family-led practice with lived experience in neurodiversity. We understand the challenges OTs face in balancing meaningful work with life outside of it, which is why we've built a supportive, flexible model that works for both families and therapists.

We specialise in outreach paediatric therapy – delivering care in homes, schools, kinders, and community spaces, where therapy makes the biggest impact.


About the Role

We're seeking a passionate Paediatric Occupational Therapist ready to join our team one day per week to start, with a steady stream of clients to build into a caseload that suits you. This is the perfect opportunity if you're looking for a long-term role with security, growth, and genuine impact.

Here's what you'll enjoy:

Immediate start – with referrals ready to go.

Steady growth – begin with 1 day/week and grow to the caseload you want.

Security – families who are looking for ongoing, consistent therapy.

Support – full admin assistance, so you can focus on therapy (not paperwork).

Flexibility – therapy sessions offered during school hours and after school. Admin and telehealth can be completed from home.

Professional development – paid external supervision and PD opportunities.


What You'll Do
  • Deliver neuro-affirming, strengths-based therapy for children and families.
  • Provide outreach services in schools, kinders, homes, and community settings.
  • Advocate within school settings to build lasting supports around children.
  • Support families to navigate the NDIS and maximise their funding.
  • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team for holistic, family-centred care.

Who We're Looking For
  • AHPRA-registered OT with at least 2 years' paediatric experience
  • Passionate about working with neurodivergent children & families
  • Comfortable with outreach/mobile therapy (schools, homes, community)
  • Looking for a long-term, steady caseload with room to grow at your pace

Why Join Doreen's OT?
  • Competitive rates $80–$100/hour
  • Clients ready to go — no need to find your own referrals
  • Long-term caseload stability with flexibility to shape your workload
  • Family-friendly team culture with lived experience in neurodiversity
  • External supervision and PD supported
  • A safe, low-pressure environment where therapists are truly valued
