About us

Children’s Area West is a municipal day care tilbud that consists of three kindergarten houses:

• Symfonien, which is a sports institution with a nursery, kindergarten and a special group.
• Myretuen, which is a kindergarten that emphasizes nature and movement.
• The Carl Nielsen Kindergarten House, which is an integrated institution with a nursery and a kindergarten with a focus on, among other things, music.

The kindergarten's recipient group

The target group in the recipient group consists of the youngest kindergarten children who are to get to know kindergarten life. There is a strong focus on creating security through recognizable routines, just as parental collaboration is essential for ensuring a good introduction and start in Symfonien.

In the recipient group you will work closely with 3 other pedagogues.

Symfonien's profile

As a sports institution we want sport, play and movement to be an integrated part of everyday life and the pedagogical work with the children. We have good frameworks to support this – for example a large playground and a gym hall, where we work in a structured and systematic way to promote children's joy and enthusiasm in moving.

The staff at Symfonien undergo DGI re-certification every other year.

Structure and positioning as the focal point of daily life

To ensure that the children meet accessible and present adults, we work in teams with positioning, and division of the children into smaller learning groups during the day. We work with the curriculum themes in an annual wheel, where we develop weekly plans with activities that support the different curriculum themes.

We can offer

• A workplace where professionalism and professional development are given high priority
• A institution where you can develop your interests and competencies within movement
• A workplace where the good working environment is in focus
• A large and diverse staff group, where professional sparring, a positive approach and humor are valued highly
• A municipal lunch scheme, where you of course eat with the children
• A mentor in your team for the first 3 months, to ensure that you settle well into our institution.

We expect

• that you are educated as a pedagogue and work according to the provisions of the Day Care Act – both

independently and in collaboration with your colleagues

• that you have a high level of professionalism and can apply well-founded pedagogy
• that you stay professionally up to date
• that you have an overview and can work in a structured way
• that you are stable and flexible

• are solution-oriented and see opportunities rather than limitations
• that you engage in interaction and dialogue to create a reflective and developing practice
• that you can use a computer, including email and documentation tools
