The Ninth Cloud is a small, growing organization that provides in-home music sessions for neurodivergent and special needs students. We focus on realistic, compassionate support in real family homes — not perfection, not performance.
Position OverviewWe are looking for patient, reliable Yoga instructors in the Bronx area to work 1:1 with special needs students in their homes. You do not need to be a therapist, but you do need to be comfortable working with kids who may communicate, move, and learn differently.
Pay
- 30 minutes – $40
- 45 minutes – $50
- 60 minutes – $65
- 90 minutes – $80
What You’ll Do
- Travel to students’ homes in/around Bronx
- Lead simple, engaging Yoga sessions
- Follow the family’s and The Ninth Cloud’s guidelines for goals and boundaries
- Communicate clearly and respectfully with caregivers
- Show up on time, prepared, and calm – even when sessions are unpredictable
Who We’re Looking For
- Strong Yoga skills
- Experience with special needs, neurodivergent, or complex kids or a genuine willingness to learn and follow training
- Professional, responsible, and emotionally steady
- Comfortable working in family homes and adapting to real-life environments (siblings, noise, pets, etc.)
- Reliable transportation to and from sessions
- Able to commit to a consistent weekly schedule for each student
Nice to Have (Not Required)
- Background in special education, music therapy, ABA, OT, or related fields
- Experience with autism, ADHD, developmental disabilities, or medical complexity
- Bilingual skills
How to ApplyPlease include:
- A brief introduction about you and your teaching or Yoga background
- Any experience you have with special needs or neurodivergent students
- Your general availability (days/times) and what areas you can travel to from Nanuet
We care more about your reliability, empathy, and willingness to learn than about a perfect resume. If you can bring calm, structure, and Yoga into families’ real lives, we’d love to hear from you.
