Pedagogical assistant sought for Børnehuset Mariehønen

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

In Børnehuset Mariehønen we are seeking an assistant pedagogue for our nursery – about 37 hours per week with start as soon as possible.

You don’t need to be a trained pedagogue or know everything in advance. The most important for us is that you love being with children, meet them with warmth and presence, and are eager to learn.

Welcome to Mariehønen

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

In the nursery you are involved in creating a safe, fun and developmental everyday life for the youngest children. You must be close to the children, play with them, comfort, sing, read books, help with outerwear and meals – and help create all the small moments that together make a good day.

We want the children to experience Mariehønen as a place where they feel safe, meaningful 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 focused on presence, relationships, child communities, play and learning – and a close and respectful cooperation 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 lead
• 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 out when everyday life requires it
• want to learn more about children, development and pedagogy

You don’t need to know it all. Maybe you have experience from a nursery or kindergarten – maybe you are 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 is you we are looking for?

If you feel that you would like 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 posting 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.
