Pediatric Physical Therapist Jobs in Indiana: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a pediatric physical therapist in Indiana?

You must earn a Doctor of Physical Therapy from an accredited program, then pass the National Physical Therapy Examination and apply for licensure through the Indiana Physical Therapy Committee, which operates under the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency. Once licensed, most Indiana employers expect at least some pediatric clinical experience, and many clinicians pursue additional coursework or certifications in pediatric NDT, early intervention, or sensory integration to stand out in the field.

How much do pediatric physical therapists make in Indiana?

Pediatric physical therapists in Indiana earn a median of about $101,560 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $76,960 for the lowest 10% to over $125,390 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire pediatric physical therapists in Indiana?

Companies currently hiring pediatric physical therapists in Indiana include Ivy Health, Reid Health, and Turnstone, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Indiana's large children's hospital networks and school district therapy contracts tend to drive the most consistent hiring volume across the state.

Which Indiana cities have the most pediatric physical therapist jobs?

Kokomo, Columbus, and Richmond have the most pediatric physical therapist openings in Indiana. Indianapolis dominates due to the concentration of major children's hospital systems and outpatient pediatric clinics headquartered there, while Fort Wayne and South Bend generate steady openings through regional health systems and school-based therapy contracts serving their surrounding counties.

Are there remote pediatric physical therapist jobs in Indiana?

Yes, but they're rare. Pediatric physical therapy is a hands-on clinical discipline, so the overwhelming majority of roles require in-person patient care. About 0% of pediatric physical therapist openings tied to Indiana are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those tend to be administrative, supervisory, or telehealth consultation roles rather than direct treatment positions.

How can I get hired as a pediatric physical therapist in Indiana with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is a new-graduate residency program, and IU Health and Eskenazi Health in Indianapolis both offer post-professional residencies that include pediatric rotations. Candidates without experience often transition from school-based paraprofessional or therapy aide roles, which large Indiana school corporations and early intervention contractors use as stepping stones. Obtaining your Indiana Physical Therapy license quickly after graduation and completing an early intervention credentialing course strengthens any application significantly.

Where can I find and apply to pediatric physical therapist jobs in Indiana?

You can find and apply to pediatric physical therapist jobs in Indiana on Migrate Mate, which lists current Indiana openings across children's hospitals, outpatient clinics, school systems, and early intervention providers. Search the listings, find the roles that match your experience and preferred setting, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
