Pedagogical assistant wanted for Børnehuset Mariehønen

Would you like to help give the children a safe and good start in life – in a house where we also take good care of each other?

At Mariehønen Kindergarten we are looking for a pedagogical assistant for our nursery – approx. 37 hours per week with start as soon as possible.

You do not need to be a trained educator or know it all in advance. The most important for us is that you love being with children, meet them with warmth and presence, and want to learn.

Welcome to Mariehønen

Mariehønen is a sought-after preschool with just over 100 children and a staff team that is proud of our house and takes good care of our community.

In the nursery you help create a safe, fun and developmental everyday life for the youngest children. You should be close to the children, play with them, comfort, sing, read books, help with coats and meals – and help create all the small moments that together become a good day.

We want the children to experience Mariehønen as a place where they feel safe, important and a part of the community.

A good place to work

For us, a good working environment is something we create together. We help each other, share ideas, laugh together and find a Plan B when Plan A doesn’t hold.

You will become part of a house with a focus on presence, relationships, children's communities, play and learning – and a close and respectful collaboration with the parents.

We are looking for you who...

• enjoy being with small children
• meet the children with warmth, calm and presence
• want to play, be active and follow the children’s cues
• are curious about children and their different ways of being in the world
• are a good colleague and contribute positively to the community
• can take responsibility and help when everyday life requires it
• want to learn more about children, development and pedagogy

You do not need to know it all. Perhaps you have experience from a nursery or kindergarten – perhaps you are entirely new to the field. The most important for us is who you are, and how you are with the children and your colleagues.

Maybe it’s you we’re looking for?

If you feel that you want to be part of Mariehønen, we would love to hear from you.

You are also welcome to call the manager Christine Skyum at 25 31 13 03 for an informal chat.

We hold ongoing interviews and close the advertisement when we have found the right person – so please send your application now.

We look forward to hearing from you – and perhaps welcoming you to Mariehønen.
