About the job
Do you want to help create a daily life filled with play, learning, curiosity and strong communities?
At Den Blå Planet Børnehus we are looking for an educator who is passionate about making a difference for children every single day. We are looking for a colleague who sees possibilities rather than limitations, who can put their professional knowledge into play, and who wants to be an active part of a house filled with engagement, development and good mood.
Den Blå Planet is a large children's house and therefore there are many opportunities. We are located in an old school and have really good space. This means that in addition to our group rooms, among other things we have a large creative workshop, a cafe for various activities, a large motor skills room, access to the hall, a Mexico town and many shared areas designed for different purposes. Outside we have a large newly renovated playground, but space for both wild and quiet play. We also have electric cargo bikes so we can easily move around the local area with small groups of children.
With us, children are not just a group – they are unique individuals with their own strengths, perspectives and potentials. Therefore we work purposefully to create learning environments where all children experience well-being, participation, development and the joy of belonging.
We work a lot in small groups, we have structure, we use visual support and we actively work with the positioning of adults both outside and inside. All educators participate in ICDP, which strengthens each person’s relational competence based on the 8 interaction themes. We also place great emphasis on language work and train the educators in Focused Effort to support them in this task.
We are looking for an educator for a fixed 37-hour-per-week position in the kindergarten with employment from December 1, 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter. The hourly rate can be negotiated.
Are you a newly qualified and full of ideas? Or do you have experience and plenty of professional reflections to carry in your backpack? Regardless of where you come from, we would love to hear from you. We are happy to wait for the right colleague.
Who are you?
You are an educator with a strong professional foundation and a big heart for children.
You
- Can take responsibility for both your own tasks and the development of the child group.
- Reflect on your own and others’ practice and actively use reflection for development.
- Have an eye for the individual child as well as the community.
- Are curious about new knowledge and wish to continuously develop your professionalism.
- Thrive in a professional collaboration where sparring, humor and shared responsibility go hand in hand.
With us you get
✨ A workplace with high professionalism and great well-being.
✨ Skilled and engaged colleagues who lift the core task together.
✨ Influence on the pedagogical development and learning environments.
✨ A thorough introduction with a mentor program and close sparring in the first six months.
✨ Opportunities to develop yourself in a large professional community across Børneinstitution Kragsbjergs five kindergartens.
✨ A daily life where play, relationships, learning and formation are the focal points.
Why choose Den Blå Planet?
Because we believe that children develop best in positive relationships. Because we believe that strong communities create strong children. And because we know that high quality in the pedagogical work arises when professionalism, reflection and job satisfaction go hand in hand.
We look forward to meeting our new colleagues.
