Speech Language Pathologist (CCCs & CFYs) Part time & Full time Pediatrics

Pediatric Speech-Language PathologistSkills on the Hill Arlington, VA & Washington, DC Part-time and full-time positions availableWe built this practice for the therapist you actually want to be. The one who has time to think, to plan a session thoughtfully, to actually read that article you bookmarked, to talk through a tricky case with someone who's seen it before. That therapist is who we hire for, and who we protect once you're here.Skills on the Hill is a pediatric OT, PT, and speech practice with locations on Capitol Hill in DC and in Arlington, VA. We're looking for a Speech-Language Pathologist who wants to do this work well for a long time not just survive the week.Lower caseload targets, on purpose. We've done the math on what it costs to give you breathing room, and we pay that cost intentionally. You'll have time to prep, document, collaborate, and grow not just churn through back-to-back sessions.Mentorship that's actually built into your week. Not a "we have an open door" line in an ad. Structured mentoring, weekly clinical meetings, case consultation, and senior clinicians who treat your development as part of their job.Professional development we fund and protect time for. Continuing ed stipend, certifications, conference support, and an in-house culture of learning where curiosity is the norm, not the exception.Benefits that reflect what we believe. Our health, retirement, and PTO benefits are meaningfully richer than what's standard in private pediatric practice. We'd rather invest in your wellbeing than advertise a higher base and hope you don't notice what's missing.A culture you can feel within a week. Collaborative, kind, accountable, and genuinely fun. Our admin team handles scheduling so you can focus on clinical care. Our clinics are well-stocked, organized, and set up by people who actually use the equipment.A note on compensationWe'll be straight with you: our base rates are not the highest in the DMV. They're competitive and fair, but if you're comparison-shopping on pay alone, some practices will quote you a bigger number.It's worth reading between the lines on those offers. Higher pay in this field is almost always funded by something usually high caseloads, minimal mentoring, thin benefits, high turnover, or a culture that quietly burns people out by year two. We've chosen a different model. We invest in lower caseloads, real mentorship, comprehensive benefits, and a workplace people stay at. Our total package and the version of your career it makes possible is where the real value lives.If that tradeoff resonates, you're probably one of us.What you'll doEvaluate, plan, and deliver individualized treatment for children with a wide range of profiles articulation, receptive and expressive language, pragmatic and social communication, apraxia, fluency, AAC, feeding, autism, developmental delays, and moreUse play, creativity, and evidence-based practice to help kids find their voice and connect with the world around themPartner closely with families, caregivers, teachers, and our multidisciplinary OT/PT/SLP teamDocument thoughtfully (we know but it matters)Keep growing, and help the clinicians around you grow tooThe practical stuffPart-time (12-20 hours/week) and full-time options availableTwo clinic locations plus potential opportunities in schools and early childhood sitesWaitlist of families ready to start, so you're not building from zeroAccrued PTO, employer-paid professional liability insurance, comprehensive health and retirement benefitsContinuing education stipend, travel reimbursement, and a company-provided computerTwo beautiful clinic locations with sensory gyms, treatment spaces, and clinical resources you'll actually want to useReady to talk?Send us your resume and a short note not a formal cover letter, just tell us what you're looking for in your next role and why this one caught your eye.
