“I love the support and flexibility that comes with working for Cheshire. This is a family-friendly workplace that has stuck with me as I’ve come and gone and come and gone again! I started with Cheshire in 2005, moved twice, and added four children along the way. Cheshire has always allowed me to work as much or as little as I needed/wanted to each year in order to care for my family first. If I have questions or need support, there is always someone ready and willing to answer or lend a hand. It’s a great place to work full time, part time, and everything in between!”

At Cheshire Center, we encourage a Neurodiversity- Affirming approach to speech-language therapy for autistic children and teenagers with staff specifically trained to support our clinicians.
Audiology Support
Audiological services are available to ensure children being served at Cheshire Center have adequate hearing skills. Our on-staff audiologist trains and supervises our clinicians to administer hearing screenings as well as to evaluate clients who cannot participate in typical hearing screenings.
Feeding and Swallowing Support
Cheshire Center provides support in the area of feeding and swallowing to our clinicians. Mentoring is available for training and consultation to ensure safe swallowing and appropriate feeding plans based on the child’s individual needs.
Stuttering Support
At Cheshire Center, clinical support is offered to our clinicians to support evaluation and treatment of stuttering. Mentoring is available to therapists to provide tools they can use to gain information from stakeholders about how stuttering is impacting the child and how to use this information to create functional goals that treat all facets of stuttering.
Bilingual Support
Support is provided for clinicians with clients who come from bilingual homes. Cheshire Center has several Spanish bilingual therapists on staff to support clinicians who encounter Spanish speaking clients and families. Our bilingual mentor can also provide support to clinicians who have clients speaking any language other than English to guide with evaluation and treatment.
“I am a part-time employee at Cheshire Center. Every SLP, audiologist, office staffer that I’ve ever approached with questions has been very helpful! The support provided from everyone has been invaluable. The training opportunities have been awesome and I feel fortunate to be a part of the Cheshire “family”. I look forward to many more experiences!”
Relocation

Whether you enjoy outdoor activities in nature or the shopping and dining options found in larger cities, Greensboro has the best of both worlds. As the third largest city in North Carolina, Greensboro is located in the center of the state. Trips to the wondrous mountains and beaches of North Carolina are easy to plan with the flexible schedules offered to our therapy staff. Visit the Greensboro Visitors Bureau to learn more about the city and don’t forget to ask about relocation packages when you interview!
“When I finished graduate school, my number one concern was finding a clinical fellowship position that offered experienced mentorship. I wanted a job that allowed me to grow as a clinician, with a company who was experienced in licensure requirements. Since the first day at Cheshire Center, I have felt welcomed and respected as part of the Cheshire team. Cheshire Center continues to offer the support necessary to transition from a graduate school student to a full time SLP. ”
