Firefly Autism Reviews

One of the biggest perks of being a school-based OT is the flexibility to create your own schedule, which allows for a great work-life balance. You not only get PTO, but also benefit from paid school breaks, giving you time to recharge throughout the year. Collaboration is a major highlight of the role, as you get to work closely with an interdisciplinary team including SLPs and BCBAs. Quarterly meetings with parents and caregivers help strengthen the home-school connection and keep families involved in their child’s progress. Plus, having access to a fully equipped sensory gym and a beautiful sensory garden provides ample space and tools to help kids regulate, move, and thrive. Being part of a nonprofit organization also means eligibility for student loan forgiveness through the FAFSA Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program. The school supports professional development with dedicated continuing education funds and days off for career growth, and management is consistently supportive and flexible.

Very thorough training process, approachable higher-ups and supervisors who are willing to help with big and small questions, a great work-life balance, tight knit staff who genuinely care about the clients.
