About Balance Diabetes Wellness (BDW)

Position Overview
We are seeking a knowledgeable and confident Registered Dietitian (RD) to provide virtual nutrition counseling for both pediatric and adult clients living with type 1 diabetes.

This part-time, PRN (as-needed) contractor role offers flexibility and the potential to grow into a full-time position as BDW expands.
