Familiarity with Danish childcare regulations and standards would be advantageous to ensure compliance and quality assurance. Overall, the position demands a proactive, adventurous mindset combined with professional pedagogical skills and leadership experience to effectively guide the department and contribute to a nurturing, multicultural learning environment.
