Build a meaningful pediatric therapy career with flexibility, strong earning potential, and real support in the field.
MGA Homecare is hiring Pediatric Physical Therapist Assistants to support children and families across the Denver metro area. This is not a clinic-based role with rigid productivity expectations. It is a one-on-one home health opportunity where you can build a caseload around your schedule, your preferred service areas, and meaningful pediatric work in the field under the direction of a licensed Physical Therapist.

Why This Role Stands Out in Denver
Flexible scheduling that is actually flexible: choose the days, hours, and geographic areas that fit your life.
One-on-one pediatric care: treat children in their natural environment and see real-life progress with families.
Strong earning potential: compensation is based on experience, tenure, caseload, and availability.
Support without micromanagement: clinical, administrative, and scheduling support help you stay focused on patient care.
Designed for Denver traffic and lifestyle: we work to align caseloads with your preferred service areas whenever possible.

Market context
Colorado nursing roles like this often draw steady demand from home health and hospice settings, where employers look for RNs who can work independently and manage patient care in the field. These positions are competitive because a current Colorado RN license, prior nursing experience, reliable transportation, and familiarity with HCHB can all strengthen an application. Review the AI-summarized requirements and benefits here to save time, then confirm your license, driving documents, and home health or hospice experience before applying.
