About FirstSteps
The FirstSteps Team is inspired by the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to achieve their fullest potential. To that end, our mission is twofold: to provide the best evidence-based, behavior analytic treatment to our children diagnosed with autism and related learning differences, and to offer a positive, collaborative, and dynamic work experience for our team. We are steadfastly committed to ongoing training and mentorship of our employees, always motivated to support the next generation of clinical leaders in our field and at FirstSteps. Our greatest reward is witnessing the rapid and joyful learning of our little ones and knowing that together, we are creating more happy days for the kids and families we serve.
JOIN OUR TEAM!
WALNUT CREEK | $23-$25/hour clinical wage after paid training
You already have something incredibly valuable: the ability to connect with children, help them learn, and celebrate their progress.
If you're a preschool teacher, Montessori guide, early childhood educator, teaching assistant, or someone with hands-on experience helping young children grow, you already bring skills that matter at FirstSteps.
As a Behavior Technician, you'll use those skills in a one-on-one, play-based environment, helping children with autism build communication, social, independence, and everyday life skills.
You don't need ABA experience. We'll teach you the rest.
Through paid training, hands-on mentorship, and ongoing support from experienced clinicians, you'll learn the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis and build new clinical skills while continuing to do what you already love: helping children learn and grow.
And this isn't just a job you can grow into. Many of our leaders started in hands-on roles working directly with children. For those who want to build a long-term career in ABA, Behavior Technician can be the first step toward greater clinical responsibility, leadership, and professional growth.
Starting pay: $23/hour
Opportunity for $1/hour increases multiple times throughout the year
