Pediatric Occupational Therapy Jobs in Eastern NC: A Career That Fits Your Life
Love what you do. Have fun doing it. And still have time for the people and things you love outside of work!
Being an occupational therapist is such a special profession.
Where else do you get to use creativity, play, movement, problem-solving, and a whole lot of heart to help children become more independent?
From helping a child learn to dress themselves to celebrating progress with handwriting, emotional regulation, sensory processing, or everyday routines, occupational therapists make an incredible difference.
But here’s something we believe just as strongly…
The people helping others deserve to feel supported, appreciated, and encouraged, too.
If you’re looking for pediatric occupational therapy jobs in Greenville, New Bern, Morehead City, Goldsboro, or the surrounding Eastern North Carolina communities, we’d love to introduce you to Carolina Therapy Connection!
Pediatric OT Jobs With Flexibility and Work-Life Balance
We know being a great occupational therapist takes energy, creativity, patience, and heart.
And we don’t believe you should have to give every ounce of that energy to your job.
At Carolina Therapy Connection, we offer a variety of employment options because we recognize that every therapist’s needs are different.
Our options include full-time, part-time, and PRN positions, four-day workweek schedules, and 10-month employment opportunities.
And something we’re especially excited about… full-time benefits begin at just 32 hours per week!
We also offer birthday PTO and floating holidays, giving our team members more flexibility when planning time off.
Have little ones at home? Want to enjoy more time with your family? Hoping to travel or pursue other passions?
We want to help you find a schedule that supports your life.
Because work-life balance shouldn’t just be something employers talk about. It should be something you can actually experience.
Sensory Gyms, Creative Treatment, and the Freedom to Do What You Love
If you love pediatric occupational therapy, you know that the best treatment sessions often don’t look like traditional work.
They look like obstacle courses, climbing, swinging, playing games, building confidence, practicing everyday skills, and celebrating victories that mean everything to a child and their family.
At CTC, our clinics have engaging sensory integration environments and equipment designed to support creative, individualized treatment.
We provide therapy equipment, assessments, computers, and the resources our clinicians need to do their jobs.
Our therapists have opportunities to work with a wide range of pediatric needs, including sensory processing, fine motor development, self-care skills, regulation, coordination, and functional independence.
Depending on the position, clinicians may also have opportunities to provide services in community settings, including homes and daycares.
We want our occupational therapists to feel empowered to use their clinical knowledge, creativity, and passion to help children succeed.
AI Documentation That Helps Make the Workday Easier
Let’s be honest… nobody becomes an occupational therapist because they can’t wait to spend hours writing notes!
That’s why we’ve invested in technology designed to make documentation more efficient.
Our AI-supported documentation system assists with evaluations, daily notes, and letters of medical necessity.
And our administrative team helps manage scheduling, billing, insurance authorizations, and other important details.
We know great patient care requires documentation, but we also believe clinicians deserve tools and support that make their jobs more manageable.
Grow as an Occupational Therapist and Explore Your Passions
One of the things we love most about our team is that everyone brings something different to the table.
Some occupational therapists love sensory integration. Others are passionate about feeding, early intervention, emotional regulation, handwriting, or a particular clinical population.
We want to encourage those interests!
At CTC, we offer mentorship, continuing education opportunities, professional development, and pathways for clinicians interested in leadership or program development.
We also encourage passion projects and helping therapists explore the areas of occupational therapy they love most.
Whether you’re a new graduate, an experienced pediatric OT, or a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA), we want you to feel that there’s room to learn and grow.
Our multidisciplinary environment also allows you to collaborate with speech therapists, physical therapists, mental wellness clinicians, and educational professionals.
There’s so much we can learn from one another!
A Workplace Where People Matter
We’re proud of the culture we’ve built at Carolina Therapy Connection.
Our team enjoys monthly potlucks, employee recognition through our Taybuck program, culture committees, celebrations, and family-inclusive team events.
We want people to enjoy coming to work, feel connected to their colleagues, and know their contributions matter.
We’re a therapist-owned, faith-guided organization that believes in treating people with kindness, compassion, and respect.
We’ve also been named one of North Carolina’s Best Employers four consecutive years, from 2023 through 2026!
We’re incredibly grateful for that recognition, and even more grateful for the team members who make CTC such a special place.
Benefits That Go Beyond a Paycheck
Eligible employees have access to benefits such as medical, dental, and vision insurance, paid time off, floating holidays, birthday PTO, professional development support, and retirement benefits, with a 401(k) beginning January 2027.
We also offer opportunities for bonuses, continuing education, mentorship, and career advancement.
Benefits and eligibility depend on the position and employment arrangement.
We want our occupational therapists to feel that we’re invested in their future, not just their productivity.
