Pediatric Physical Therapist Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a pediatric physical therapist in Colorado?
To become a pediatric physical therapist in Colorado, you must earn a Doctor of Physical Therapy from a CAPTE-accredited program, pass the National Physical Therapy Examination, and obtain licensure through the Colorado Physical Therapy Board. After licensure, most therapists gain pediatric experience through clinical rotations, residencies, or entry-level hospital positions before pursuing the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties pediatric certification to advance into specialized roles.
How much do pediatric physical therapists make in Colorado?
Pediatric physical therapists in Colorado earn a median of about $102,030 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $76,460 for the lowest 10% to over $132,010 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire pediatric physical therapists in Colorado?
Employers hiring pediatric physical therapists in Colorado right now include Angels of Care Pediatric Home Health, Amazing Care, and Inspiring Talkers, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Colorado's large integrated health systems and the presence of Children's Hospital Colorado, one of the top-ranked children's hospitals in the country, make the state a particularly strong market for ongoing pediatric therapy hiring.
Which Colorado cities have the most pediatric physical therapist jobs?
The cities with the most pediatric physical therapist openings in Colorado are Aurora, Loveland, and Colorado Springs. The Denver metro drives the largest share of demand, anchored by major children's and academic health systems, while Colorado Springs and Aurora generate strong secondary volume through regional hospital networks, school district contracts, and the growing population of military families who rely on pediatric therapy services.
Are there remote pediatric physical therapist jobs in Colorado?
Yes, but they are rare. Pediatric physical therapy is a hands-on clinical discipline, so the vast majority of roles require in-person patient contact. About 25% of pediatric physical therapist openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions are typically limited to telehealth evaluation, care coordination, or clinical supervision roles rather than direct treatment.
How can I get hired as a pediatric physical therapist in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a new-graduate residency, with Children's Hospital Colorado and UCHealth both offering structured pediatric PT residency programs in the Denver area designed specifically for therapists without post-graduate experience. Candidates who hold an active Colorado PT license and have completed pediatric clinical rotations during their DPT program are competitive for these positions. Lateral entry from school-based PT aide or rehab tech roles is another common starting point, and completing your IFSP documentation training before applying adds a concrete credential Colorado early intervention employers value.
Where can I find and apply to pediatric physical therapist jobs in Colorado?
You can find and apply to pediatric physical therapist jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current Colorado openings updated regularly. Search for roles that fit your clinical experience, preferred setting, and location within the state, then apply directly to the ones that match. No sign-up is required to see the listings.
