About the job

Do you want to be a pedagogical assistant in a large house with a focus on professionalism, well-being and strong collaboration?

We are seeking pedagogical assistants for our toddler unit with a start no later than December 1, 2026.

Damperen is an integrated institution with 84 toddlers and 88 preschool children. Damperen is part of Cluster D and is located at Eskildsgade 7 and 17 on Vesterbro.

The toddler unit is housed in large, bright rooms spread over three floors at Eskildsgade 7. We have many square meters in a large house, so we work in small groups and use all available rooms.

In addition we have three playgrounds focusing on the motor development and senses of the small child.

As a pedagogical assistant you will either join a room with two other staff on a fixed basis or join as a “floater” in a team of a total of 7-10 staff.

The preschool is located at Eskildsgade 17, in a listed house with winding corners and lots of space. Here there is an outdoor play area in the old stables as well as a small playground in front of the institution.

Our outreach location “Galoppen” runs to Ishøj village, where we have another large house. Here we use the outdoor area as much as possible, both on our nature site and in the surrounding area.

Children and pedagogical staff rotate between being at our outreach location and at Vesterbro in a two-week cycle.

As an employee at Damperen you can expect

  • high level of professionalism
  • good collegial collaboration across groups
  • welcome materials so you are equipped for the job as a pedagogical assistant
  • good collaboration between departments, including the child’s transition from toddler group to preschool
  • good cooperation with parents regarding children's well-being, development and transitions
  • good collaboration with cross-disciplinary support
  • a unified house across departments, where children's well-being is a shared responsibility
  • to be met with respect and acknowledgment

We want colleagues who

  • can navigate a day-to-day life as a pedagogical assistant in a team that operates as a floater
  • have a particular enthusiasm for working with the 1-3-year-olds
  • meet the children with recognition and are curious about their intentions
  • are keen to learn about children's development and well-being
  • are willing and eager to be professionally and personally challenged in collaboration with colleagues
  • contribute to and actively support Damperen’s pedagogical values
  • have good communication skills
  • can work independently, but also across the building and in close collaboration with colleagues
  • recognize the necessity of structure and systematic approaches as a framework for good well-being and development in the children
  • maintain an overview

Employment terms

Salary and employment terms according to the applicable collective agreement and within the framework of local pay formation.

In connection with employment we will obtain a child and criminal record check as well as a reference.
