About the job

We are looking for the pedagogue who keeps asking questions.

We do not believe that a good pedagogue has all the answers. Instead, we believe in pedagogues who keep asking questions. Why does the child react like that? What is play trying to tell us? How do we create participation opportunities for more children? What does the situation call for from us as professionals?

At Grøftekantens Kindergarten we are looking for a trained pedagogue who is curious about children, communities and their own practice. A colleague who wants to investigate, reflect and develop themselves together with others.

Start date January 1, 2027 or as soon as possible.

With us you get

  • A strong collegial community with high professional commitment
  • The opportunity to become an important part of Musestuen, where 12 children, an engaged colleague and 25 hours of additional staffing each week look forward to welcoming you
  • A daily life where you have the opportunity to develop and shape the pedagogical practice
  • Sparring with colleagues both in the department, across the Ravnsholtklyngen cluster and PPR
  • A workplace with humor, presence and room for different perspectives
  • Management close to practice and a focus on professional development

Who are we?

Grøftekantens Kindergarten is part of the Ravnsholtklyngen in Allerød. We consist of three ordinary rooms and one base room, and this position is in the ordinary part of the house.

We are a department where we believe children develop in relationships and communities. Therefore we are concerned with how we as adults create participation opportunities, curious learning environments and safe boundaries for all children.

With us you meet colleagues who dare to share their reflections, challenge each other professionally and help when daily life calls for it. We do not believe that one must know everything alone.

At the same time we are part of a larger community in the Ravnsholtklyngen, where collaboration across nurseries, kindergartens, forest kindergartens and base offerings provides opportunities for sparring, knowledge sharing and new perspectives.

In Allerød Municipality we work based on our Children and Youth Policy with the accompanying underlying child and learning philosophy .

We are focused on what happens between people

We work from attachment, interaction and self-regulation. This means that we are not only interested in what children do, but also in what they try to tell us. We are curious about children’s perspectives, about the importance of relationships and about how we as adults can create the best conditions for well-being, development and learning.

We see play as a central driving force in children’s lives. Not as a break from learning, but as a place where children practice life.

We hope that you

  • Are a trained pedagogue
  • Are curious about children and your own professional practice
  • Have a view of both the individual child and the community
  • Believe that strong relationships create the foundation for development
  • Can translate reflection into action
  • Want to actively contribute to a professional community

At Grøftekantens Kindergarten we believe that professionalism is not about knowing everything. We believe it grows when we are curious about the children, about each other and about our own practice.

So, in the end, there is only one question: What kind of pedagogue would you like to be?

The one who already has all the answers. Or the one who remains curious, investigative and open to new perspectives? If you recognize yourself in the latter, we look forward to reading your application.

Are you interested?

If you have further questions, you are welcome to contact Educational Leader Rikke Baundal, 20 36 61 60. You upload your application via the link in the advertisement no later than November 26, 2026. We conduct ongoing recruitment interviews. We will obtain references and criminal records before final employment.

We look forward to hearing from you.
