Pediatric OT Travel Therapy Jobs

A range of developmental issues can affect a child’s ability to progress normally through the typical stages of social or cognitive development. The longer a child goes without learning these skills, the obstacles the child encounters —which makes the skills of a pediatric occupational therapist critical to their patients. Therapy can involve games, music, art or physical exercises. The goal of pediatric therapy is to challenge clients appropriately,  building self-esteem along the way.
