Kokkedalen seeks experienced assistants

Do you want to be the children’s safe haven and help create play, imagination and community? Lyngeklyngen in Allerød is expanding. We therefore seek experienced assistants for both the nursery and the kindergarten in Kokkedalen. With us, play is not just an activity but a fundamental approach to children's development and well-being.

The position is, in principle, 37 hours per week, but the number of hours can be agreed according to need. Start date January 1, 2027.

With the latest knowledge from Legepaletten and Thea Thyrre Sørensen behind us, we know that the best pedagogy arises when adults play, are present and create space for everyone.

We offer

• A good working environment with well-being, low sickness absence and strong support from the parents
• An educational program in neuropsychological interaction with play as the focal point led by instructor Tea Thyrre Sørensen
• A clear and visible management team that ensures a safe workplace and a daily life with room for pedagogical discussions
• Opportunity to begin a bridging education. So if you want to start PAU or the teacher education, we can help you get started while you are with us
• Influence on your own work and plenty of professional sparring and close collaboration with PPR

About us

• Department Kokkedalen consists of 3 small kindergartens, each with 2-3 child groups, totaling 134 children distributed between nursery and kindergarten
• We have large outdoor playgrounds with secret hiding places, big trees, fire pits and plenty of space for both the small and the large community
• All departments have cargo bikes, so we can go on trips in the local area, and we have bus passes for the big adventures, so the children also gain experiences out in the big world
• We have a strong work community characterized by curiosity, openness and courage
• Our mantra is: What do the children need?
• Lyngeklyngen consists of 4 departments spread across 5 sites, about 90 permanent staff, 4 pedagogical leaders and 1 cluster leader

Our foundation

We work from Allerød Municipality’s Child and Learning Vision as well as our Integrated Child and Youth Policy . This means that we meet children, parents and colleagues with positive expectations, a strong resource view and an appreciative approach. We believe development happens in strong communities where all children have space and the opportunity to succeed.

With us, children, parents, staff and leadership value

• That every day we create moments where the child feels meaningful and part of the community
• That we make an effort in the interaction with children, colleagues and parents
• That we laugh and play, are bold and creative
• That we make each other look good – even on busy days
• That we focus on looking at the child’s intention, rather than the behavior
• That we talk about what the child lacks experience with and less about what the child cannot do
