About the job

In an old historic building, which since the 1950s has functioned as an institution on Paul Martin Møllers vej a stone's throw from the Botanical Garden, lies Børnehuset Vesterbo.

Here we are in the process of renovating, so the same historic frames can now be filled and accommodate what a modern kindergarten and nursery must be able to provide.

We hope you will want to come and put your mark on the framework when we move back again later this year.

In the purple room we have a colleague who is going on maternity leave, and therefore we are looking for a pedagogue or pedagogical assistant who wants to be there 35 hours a week.

When we move back at the end of December, we must together create inspiring, playful and inclusive learning environments from scratch, and you of course can also contribute to shaping that. Then we will indeed be where we belong.

We are very open to new ideas, and hope you will help develop our pedagogical culture, where we evaluate, have practice runs, move around learning environments, spar and listen to each other.

We can offer

A workplace that values high professionalism and keeps the core task in focus.

Time for professional sparring, reflection and development.

A staff group that is committed to evaluating their own practice and creating even better play- and learning environments.

A nursery where you will have the opportunity to put your mark on the structure and activities and participate in developing practice.

A little more about us and the Daycare

At Børnehuset Vesterbo we have about 80 children aged 0-6 years, distributed as follows

  • 3 nursery groups
  • 3 kindergarten groups

We are a large house with a diverse group of children and families from many different backgrounds. That gives us both exciting challenges and unique opportunities every day.

With us we always start from the children's needs and resources and work from ' children do the best they can '. We create dynamic learning environments where all children experience participation, mastery and success - every day.

You also become part of Møllevang Daycare. Here we have, among other things, a fixed language advisor employed, whom we use a lot. There is strong support for further education and courses in Vesterbo and in the daycare in general.

We work thoroughly with Dagtilbud For Alle.

Does it sound like something for you?
