Early Childhood Education and Care Social Pedagogue, International Early Childhood Education center
About this role
We are excited to open a brand-new international ECE center in Turku, and we are now looking for enthusiastic educators to join us from the very beginning.
As a new daycare, we are building fresh structures, creating our shared culture, and shaping an inspiring international environment where children can learn, explore, and grow. If you are passionate about early childhood education and eager to be part of something new, dynamic, and meaningful, we warmly invite you to join our journey.
As an Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) Social Pedagogue, you work as part of a multidisciplinary team, supporting children's holistic well-being, participation, and development of social skills within everyday pedagogical practices. Your work emphasizes close collaboration with families, early support, and a comprehensive understanding of each child's growth and development.
In our daycare centre, every employee's expertise is valued, and responsibilities are agreed upon together. We create a functional structure for team planning, evaluation, and development, and our pedagogical working culture is reflected in a shared commitment to agreed practices. This position is well suited for you if you wish to utilise your expertise, develop and create new ideas, and leave your own personal contribution to creating positive daily experiences for both children and colleagues.
As an ECEC Social Pedagogue, you play a key role in multidisciplinary collaboration, sharing your social-pedagogical expertise in joint planning and the development of practices. You work closely with your team, families, and other professionals to ensure the child's best interests, timely support, and a well-functioning everyday life. Your team is supported by a special education teacher in early childhood education, the daycare centre director, and the assistant director, who are always available to offer guidance and support.
