Great place to work, awesome support from clinical staff
Pros
FirstSteps was a great place to work, right from the very beginning. The training program is outstanding--they make sure to cover everything you need to know, and then provide training in the field. There is also ongoing PD supervision and feedback, which is so helpful for knowing what's working well and what could be adjusted. Everyone on staff was always super helpful and I loved the office environment. And of course, the kids are awesome. I loved getting to see my kiddos' progress during the time I was there. Also, if you're interested in staying in the field long-term, the clinical team is more than happy to provide support and supervision along the way.
Cons
Schedule could be a bit inconsistent when families cancel last minute. Instructors are paid at their direct rate for office time when this happens, but it would be preferable to have an actual session. Sometimes the driving got to be a bit much, but the scheduling team was good about working with me on that.
