Who are we?

Midtbyen’s Nature Preschool is an integrated day care with 125 children aged 0-6 years, spread across the nursery, the middle group and the kindergarten.

We work from a shared ambition to create safe, inclusive and development-oriented learning environments where all children feel they belong. Through close relationships, visible adults and strong child communities we support the children’s wellbeing, development, learning and formation.

Everyday life is characterized by structure, recognizability and manageability. At the same time there is room for spontaneity, immersion and the children’s initiatives.

As a nature preschool, we have a fixed connection to Kær Vestermark, where year-round we explore nature through play, movement, investigations and shared experiences. We see nature as a valuable learning environment that strengthens the children’s curiosity, motor skills, imagination and participation opportunities.

• is present, engaged and professionally reflective
• takes shared responsibility for developing strong and inclusive learning environments
• meets children, parents and colleagues with recognition and respect
• can create participation opportunities for all children
• is curious about their own practice and wishes to develop professionally
• actively contributes to a工作 community characterized by collaboration, humor and shared responsibility
• is motivated by making a difference for children and families in different life situations

We offer

• a professionally engaged staff with high ambitions on the children’s behalf
• a workplace with a strong focus on the core task and pedagogical quality
• a close work community where we help and develop each other
• an opportunity to influence the development of our nature profile and pedagogical practice
• professional sparring with colleagues, resource persons and management
• clear leadership support and a focus on wellbeing, job satisfaction and development
