Substitute Childcare Provider at Reggio Preschool in Örby

Vi som Växer Aktiebolag · Temporary

Trollesundsvägen 30,, BANDHAGEN, Sweden

We are looking for an experienced childcare provider who wants to work in an exploratory, project-based manner and stay close to children's learning processes. Vi som Växer started its operations in 1993 and today runs five preschools in Stockholm and Nacka Municipality. We have approximately 75 employees and work in a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach, with a clear focus on exploratory, project-based, and aesthetic learning processes. We are now seeking an experienced, curious, and collaborative childcare provider who wants to work as a substitute during parental leave. You should want to step into an environment where exploratory methods are central. We are looking for someone who is eager and engaged in working project-based "to the fullest" – following children's processes over time, being attentive to their questions and expressions, and contributing with a strong aesthetic, workshop, and atelier mindset in daily work. At our preschool, all staff members have actively chosen to work with an exploratory approach. We want you to also be someone who seeks out this type of environment – where pedagogical documentation, reflection, materials, environment, and collegial learning are important parts of the work. About the role As a childcare provider with us, you are an important part of the work team. You are expected to contribute with enthusiasm, initiative, and a willingness to take the lead. Together with your colleagues, you drive development work, follow children's projects, and create environments where children's curiosity, play, and learning can flourish. You need to have a strong ability to collaborate, listen, and share both experiences and knowledge. With us, reflection together with colleagues is an important tool for developing both the preschool and your own professional role. We appreciate it if you have experience working with pedagogical documentation, project work, creative materials, atelier work, or other aesthetic expressions. Most importantly, you have a genuine interest in children's exploration and a desire to develop further in a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach. We are looking for someone who: - is educated - has a clear commitment to the preschool's mission - wants to work in an exploratory, project-based, and process-oriented way - is curious about children's questions, hypotheses, and expressions - has an aesthetic interest and preferably experience with workshops, ateliers, or creative work - is comfortable with collaboration and sees the work team as an important part of the pedagogical work - wants to contribute to a warm, professional, and learning work environment - has the ability to see the needs of children, the group, and the preschool as a whole Children, environment, and learning Your task is, together with the work team, to provide children with a safe, stimulating, and meaningful day at preschool. Care, play, outdoor time, creative activities, conversations, and exploration are central parts of the work. You are present in children's play and learning processes, ensure that all children are noticed, and work to make every child feel included in the group. We work based on the Curriculum for Preschool, the Education Act, and other governing documents, as well as Vi som Växer's own goals and policy documents. As an experienced childcare provider, you are expected to participate in planning, documentation, reflection, development conversations, and work with action plans for children who need extra support and stimulation. Collaboration with guardians Contact with guardians is an important part of the role. We are looking for someone who has a respectful and attentive approach and who works together with the team to ensure that families feel safe, welcome, and heard. What we offer With us, you get to work in an environment where pedagogical work is taken seriously. We want to be a learning organization for both children and adults, where there is room for deepening, reflection, and development. There is much more to tell, but we prefer to start with a personal meeting. Send a personal email where you tell us about yourself, your experience, and why you are seeking out an exploratory and project-based approach. We look forward to hearing from you.
