About the Role

NeuroNurture Kids is looking for a warm, creative, and dedicated Play Therapist to join our growing team. In this role, you'll support children's emotional, social, and developmental growth through engaging, play-based virtual sessions. If you love working with kids and believe in the power of play to heal, connect, and build confidence, we'd love to hear from you.

• Design playful, age-appropriate activities that keep children engaged and motivated through a screen
• Use play-based techniques to support emotional regulation, communication, language , and developmental goals
• Observe, track, and document each child's progress
• Collaborate with parents, caregivers, and our wider team to align on goals and share updates

Background We're Looking For

A degree or coursework in one or more of the following:

• Psychology
• Child Development
• Special Education

Skills You'll Need

• Strong child engagement skills — the ability to connect with children and hold their attention virtually
• Knowledge of (or genuine eagerness to learn) play-based therapy approaches
• Patience, empathy, and creativity
• Clear, friendly communication with both children and parents
• Comfort using video-calling tools and basic digital activities
