More employee participation, more well-being, more creativity?

Dagtilbud Bankager is seeking an educator for the Frugthaven nursery

Would you like to be part of a work community where there is room to think creatively and anew?

In Dagtilbud Bankager we are focused on creating a day care where both children and adults have the opportunity to unfold, be curious and have influence. We believe that the best pedagogical practice develops in community – when we share ideas, challenge each other\'s perspectives and dare to translate thoughts into action.

We have big ambitions for the coming period. Throughout 2027 we will especially focus on forms of cultural expression and on how we can give the children even more opportunities to experience, experiment and express themselves through music, movement, art, stories and creative processes.

But development is not only about the children. We also want to create a staff group where well-being, job satisfaction and personal development go hand in hand with professional development. We believe we succeed best when we are well on our own and together, have influence on our work community and give space to each other\'s ideas and initiatives.

At the same time we are working purposefully to strengthen our sustainable profile. We want to take responsibility for the planet our children will grow up in – and make sustainability a natural part of our everyday life.

We are therefore looking for an educator for the Frugthaven nursery who is eager to contribute with professionalism, engagement and curiosity – and who is ready to help shape what we need to succeed with together.

What you can look forward to with us

• A work community where your ideas and perspectives matter.
• Opportunity to influence the pedagogical development and have your ideas translated into practice.
• A shared focus on cultural expressions, play and a strong collaboration with parents.
• A sustainable profile, which we continuously develop and make more concrete in everyday life.
• A leadership that offers coaching as a possibility for both personal and professional development.
• Time for both collaborative practices and for individual reflection.

Who do we hope you are?

We hope that you

• Are an educator, experienced or newly graduated.
• Can co-create inspiring learning environments that invite play, exploration and deepening.
• Often say yes rather than no and see opportunities rather than limitations, both for children and colleagues.
• Thrive in collaborating, reflecting and developing pedagogical practice together with others.

Do we get an application from you?

We are curious about who you are as an educator and what you can bring into our community.

Therefore we would like you to describe how a week in the nursery could look with you as the educator at the helm. Start from your personal and professional strengths, interests and values, and let us get an insight into how you would put them into play in Frugthaven.

We especially would like to hear how you would bring some of our shared focus areas into play:

• How can creativity and forms of cultural expression fit into everyday activities and routines?
• How will you contribute to our sustainable profile?
• How do you use your ideas and competences in collaboration with colleagues?

You do not need to describe a detailed weekly plan. We are more interested in your thoughts, your professional curiosity and your ideas for how you can help set a direction and create life in the pedagogical everyday life.

There is not one right answer – we would like to get to know you and your pedagogical profile.
