Looking for a role where every day is different and every child leaves with a smile?

n

If you're passionate about helping children build confidence through movement and want to be part of an innovative multidisciplinary team that is redefining paediatric allied health, we'd love to hear from you.

Why Neurodiverse Playhouse?

n

Neurodiverse Playhouse was founded because our Director couldn't find the kind of holistic, neuroaffirming service she wanted for her own child.

Today, we are one of Australia's fastest-growing paediatric allied health practices, providing innovative, child-led services that make therapy engaging, meaningful and enjoyable for children and families alike.

n

If you're looking for a workplace where you'll be supported, inspired and encouraged to grow while making a genuine difference in children's lives, we'd love to hear from you.
