Nature & Environment Kindergarten, Svenstrup Daycare, is seeking a nature pedagogue.

Do you dream of a workday with mud on your boots, happy children's voices, and nature as your most important learning space?

At Nature & Environment Kindergarten we are looking for an engaged nature educator who loves being outdoors, is curious with the children, and sees opportunities in everything from earthworms and puddles to the forest's secret paths.

With us, nature is not just a backdrop. It is an active part of everyday life, learning and play.

Who are we?

Nature & Environment Kindergarten is a satellite/outreach kindergarten with room for 40 children aged 3-6. Every morning we gather in our collection rooms in Aalborg C., after which we drive by bus to our scenic base in Svenstrup.

Here you will find

🌳 A huge natural area surrounded by forest, fields and hills

🏡 Villa Kulla - our cozy three-story house

🔥 A large greenhouse with a wood stove where we can come together for creative activities and keep warm on cold days

🐔 Hens, a rooster and rabbits that the children help to take care of

🌿 A unique playground with space for both adventure, challenges and immersion

With us, children can climb, investigate, experiment, build, dig, discover and wonder. We follow the children's lead and use nature's many possibilities as a starting point for playful learning and community.

We actively work with nature projects through The Green Sprouts and have for many years been proud recipients of the Green Sprouts flag.

We want our new colleague

• To highly value presence with the children and be able to take a leadership role with the group
• To have a good overview and help create structure in everyday life, especially during our many transitions related to bus travel
• To be robust and able to see the positives in everyday life, and meet others with a smile – even when you are busy
• To use humor and imagination to make everyday life a celebration
• To be flexible and adaptable regarding meeting times at our two addresses
• To be playful, present, and curious together with the children
• To be able to see the value in the diversity and opportunities of outdoor life, based on the children's traces
• To be good at communicating and initiating nature-science activities
• To be able to independently plan, implement, and evaluate learning processes.

We can offer

• A humorous and inspiring colleague environment and a good working environment
• Strong collaboration that requires you to actively contribute to the community – we are a team that lifts together
• High professional standards and reflection at the center
• An exciting daily life filled with happy children and nature experiences
• A lively workplace that is in constant development. The distance from a good idea to action is short and parental support is great.
• We are motivated by and thrive with an active and creative everyday life in nature year-round, and we are outdoors every day in all kinds of weather.

If you would like to develop yourself in pedagogical practice and become part of our active daily life with a focus on playful learning, development and participation opportunities for our wonderful 3-6 year olds, please call us for an informal chat about the position.
