Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) — Pediatric Focus — Phoenix West Valley

Love Working With Kids? This OTA Role Is Built for You.

You became an OTA to make a real difference — and at AVOLA Therapy, you'll spend most of your days doing exactly that with children. Our OTA role is kid-first: the core of your caseload is pediatric across in-home sessions and school-based settings, with a steady mix of adult home and community visits rounding out your week in the Phoenix West Valley.

New graduate? Even better. Our OTA mentorship program pairs you with experienced occupational therapists who are invested in your growth, answer your clinical questions, and help you build confidence from day one.

What You'll Do

• Provide one-on-one pediatric occupational therapy in kids' homes and in school-based settings across the Phoenix West Valley
• Help children build skills in sensory processing, fine motor, handwriting, self-care, play, and school readiness
• Coach families and teachers so therapy carries into everyday routines
• Work with adult clients in home and community settings on mobility, ADLs, post-injury recovery, and aging-in-place goals — keeping your clinical range broad
• Collaborate closely with supervising OTs who are accessible and supportive
• Use modern documentation and scheduling tools that simplify your workflow

What Makes AVOLA Different

A Kid-First Caseload

Most OTA jobs in the Valley throw you into a mixed bag of populations with no clear focus. Here, pediatrics anchors your week so you can go deeper with the kids and families you love working with — while a regular rotation of adult home and community cases keeps your clinical skills broad.

Real Mentorship

Not just a name on paper. Your mentor is a phone call away, reviews your documentation, and meets with you regularly to support your clinical development.

Your Schedule, Your Way

Choose your caseload and availability. Build a schedule that works for your life — not the other way around.

One Patient at a Time

No double-booking. No productivity quotas. Just meaningful, focused care that lets you do your best work.

A Team That Has Your Back

AVOLA is family-owned. You'll know everyone by name, and your voice will always be heard.

Five-Star Reputation

Our families consistently rate us five stars. You'll be proud of the team you represent.

What We're Looking For

• Licensed or license-eligible OTA in the state of Arizona
• A genuine love for working with children — pediatric experience is a plus, but a passion for kids matters most
• Comfort supporting a regular rotation of adult clients in home and community settings
• New graduates are welcome and encouraged to apply
• Patience, creativity, and the ability to make therapy feel like play
• Reliable transportation (in-home and school-based therapy requires travel between visits)

Service Areas

Phoenix, Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Buckeye, Goodyear, Avondale, El Mirage, Tolleson, Litchfield Park, Sun City, and Sun City West.
