About the role

Mercy Kids St. Louis seeks a compassionate Child Life Specialist to join our pediatric team on a PRN basis. You will provide emotional support, therapeutic play, and education to children and families during hospital experiences. You will lead developmentally appropriate activities, collaborate with the care team, supervise students and volunteers, and help families navigate procedures while maintaining patient- and family-centered care.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
