Hobbitten in Gl. Åby day care seeks a present and energetic pedagogical assistant, in a permanent 37-hour position.

As we are a house that works across all groups, you must be eager to work with children aged 0-6.

We would like the position to be filled by 1.11.26.

About the job

In our view of children we emphasize that the children are met by acknowledging pedagogical staff who, based on a strengths-based perspective, can create inclusive and rewarding communities. Children should experience belonging and develop by being met with appropriate challenges.

We believe that high professionalism is achieved when adults put the children at the center and let them be the focus of the reflections we have and the decisions we make every day. We have a particular focus on supporting the children in immersing themselves in play. We believe that by being curious about each other’s actions we can create development and succeed in our goal that the children thrive, learn, develop and form during their time in Hobbitten.

In addition to the values of Aarhus Municipality—credibility, respect and engagement—it is important for us that children and parents meet with presence, security and openness when they come to Hobbitten.

We have a good collegial community across the entire house and look forward to welcoming you.
