About the job

Here at Eventyrhuset we love play, adventures, learning and good laughter – and now we are looking for a new pedagogical colleague who will help make everyday life fun, safe and full of development for our lovely children.

About Eventyrhuset

Eventyrhuset is an age-integrated facility with a normed capacity of 104 children. We consist of two departments; a nursery department with 4 rooms and a kindergarten department with 3 rooms. Physically we are on two sites, but have access to each other via our fantastic playground. We value being one house where we daily share pedagogical reflections, hold staff meetings – and breaks together.

Pedagogically we work from the new view of the child, where the relationship between child and adult is equal. Children must be seen, heard and understood – it is their everyday life of which we are a part and therefore their co-determination in the pedagogical work we do is important. We know that children develop in safe relationships and therefore we focus on creating a circle of security around the child in collaboration with the parents. This circle is based on an equal partnership as well as a shared respectful and trusting relationship between parents and staff.

We believe that play is children’s most important learning space – and that adults who can play themselves make everyday life even better!

🎨 We are looking for you who

  • Love to play, be curious and follow the children’s cues
  • Can create safety, structure and good laughs at the same time
  • Have an affirming approach to children, colleagues and parents
  • Takes initiative and dares to think creatively in daily life
  • Contributes to the community – both at child level and at colleague level

🌈 We offer

  • A workplace filled with presence, humor and heart
  • Dedicated colleagues who help each other and have fun
  • Children who remind us every day why we love our work
  • Opportunity to put your mark on the pedagogical work

Or in other words, you will become part of a team where we help each other and share laughs in everyday life. Your tasks will range from play and interaction with the children to actively co-creating our pedagogical development.

🕒 The practical

  • The positions are 37 hours per week in the respective kindergarten and nursery.
  • Starting: January 1, 2027 with the possibility of an early start
  • Application deadline: November 29, 2026
  • Interviews will be held on an ongoing basis
  • Please indicate in the application which department you are applying for

We are among the first municipalities to permanently introduce paid preparation time for pedagogues.

That means we maintain the staffing norm while you and your colleagues prepare yourselves. The preparation time allows you to reflect on practice, plan pedagogical activities and strengthen the quality of daily work – without it encroaching on time with the children. We believe that time for preparation is essential for both professional development and to be able to give the children the best experience in everyday life.
