Educator for a nursery at Børnehuset Regnbuen

Do you want to create a heart space for the youngest children through play, nature and presence? And are you passionate about following the children's initiatives, exploring nature with them and creating security in everyday small moments? Then you might be our new educator in the nursery.

About the workplace

Børenhuset Regnbuen is an independent, self-governing institution for children aged 0–6 years. In the nursery we currently have 16 children.

Our vision is to be a heart space in the middle of Varnæs/Bovrup, where high professional standards and warmth go hand in hand. In practice, this means that we meet the children with presence, clarity and respect and help them find security, belief in themselves and a place in the community.

Here you get the opportunity to use both the outdoor space on our large playground, the local area and our own gymnasium in your pedagogical work. We are out in all kinds of weather, explore nature and make room for sensory experiences. Inside, we create space for movement, creativity, play and calm moments.

About the job

You will become part of the nursery team, where you and your colleagues plan, implement and evaluate the pedagogical work.

Your professional competencies come into play throughout the day: when you help a child enter into a game, support language at the lunch table or create calm and security during bedtime. You participate in practical tasks and have daily contact with the parents about their child's everyday life.

Your tasks

• Create secure relationships and support the children's well-being and development.
• Plan play and activities based on the children's interests and needs.
• Help the children participate in play and belonging.
• Use nature, senses and movement in everyday life.
• Observe the children's development and evaluate learning environments with your colleagues.
• Collaborate with parents and relevant professionals about the individual child.

We offer

• Influence over the nursery's activities and learning environments.
• Opportunity to bring your interests and professional strengths into everyday life.
• Outdoor life in all kinds of weather and your own gymnasium for movement and motor games.
• Cooperation with colleagues to plan and develop the pedagogical practice.
• A everyday life where you closely follow the children's development and cooperate with their families.
• An institution where you bring your professional expertise into play and further develop it through sparring, further training, joint reflection and working with the children.

About you

We expect that you

• are a trained educator and want to work with children aged 0–3 years
• can create secure relationships and adapt your approach to the individual child
• take initiative and follow up on joint agreements
• can reflect on your practice and adjust it together with your colleagues
• communicate openly and respectfully with parents and colleagues
• actively participate in outdoor life, play and everyday practical tasks.
