Speech Pathologist – Help Kids Find Their Voice (Whatever That Looks Like)
LotUs AssistRaymond Terrace, Newcastle, Maitland & Hunter NSW
Job Description
Words are one way to communicate. You know connection runs deeper than that.
At The Neuro Nest, we know communication isn't just about speech. It's about being understood. Feeling heard. Being seen.
We’re looking for a qualified, curious, and kind Speech Pathologist who’s excited to join a team that’s flipping the script on traditional therapy and embracing a neurodiversity-affirming, child-led approach.
If you believe echolalia is beautiful, AAC is empowering, and scripts are valid forms of self-expression, we’re already speaking your language.

Parent coaching and co-regulation strategies
Social connection and self-advocacy skills
Emotional literacy and regulation
School readiness and real-world participation
Interdisciplinary support with OTs, Psychologists, Social Workers, and DEs
We don’t correct communication, we celebrate it. We amplify voices in all forms, build connection first, and always respect autonomy.

-
Holds a recognised Speech Pathology degree and SPA membership
Embraces neurodiversity-affirming, strengths-based practice
Values all communication equally — verbal, gestural, typed, signed or scripted
Enjoys working with children and families in a collaborative, playful way
Brings creativity, warmth and emotional insight to their therapy

🏡 Beautiful therapy spaces.
The Neuro Nest is located in Raymond Terrace with optional outreach sessions or telehealth depending on interest.
**If you're looking for a role where communication is celebrated, not corrected, this is it.**Whether you're experienced or early in your career, if you bring the right values, we’ll support you to thrive.
Come help build something different. And help kids find their voice, their way.
COME FIND YOUR PLAY, YOUR PEOPLE, YOUR PLACE!
