We are looking for you, who

• are keen to work with children aged 0-6 years and be involved in starting up our new organization
• are flexible and want to be a "flying" member in the house, where you can participate across groups as needed
• thrive in close team collaboration, where we help each other and share responsibility for everyday life
• communicate clearly and professionally – both in dialogue with colleagues and in collaboration with parents
• want to take part, contribute ideas and take action, even when daily life is busy
• greet parents with openness and respect

At Østerlund we are highly professionally represented with educators, pedagogical assistants and several merit-pedagogy students.

At Østerlund we believe that the key to successful pedagogical practice is a happy, engaged and balanced staff. We have a high level of professional competence and work purposefully to create a flexible workplace with a healthy work-life balance and a warm-hearted working environment.

We are professionally proud of our pedagogical work, and continually develop our practice through dialogue and professional reflection. Everyone who works at Østerlund enters the door to provide care and make a difference for the children. We will create the best possible conditions for well-being, learning and development throughout the day.

We work in an working environment where we listen to each other and challenge each other's professionalism. Our structure requires planning, and we therefore ensure time for preparation and scheduled professional meetings. We work for a culture where all staff meet the children with the same pedagogical starting point, and that there is a "red thread" for the children in the years they are at Østerlund.

You will become part of a highly professionally reflective team, which always puts the children first, a team that desires development, joy and fun for both children and adults. In addition, you will become part of the whole Østerlund, which lifts the community and sees the house as one united work community.
