About the workplace
Welcome to the Wieselgren preschool area, where you will meet dedicated employees in a warm climate where everyone is welcome. Our core values—curiosity, participation, and inclusivity—permeate our entire operation. The area consists of Guldsmedsgatan Preschool, Traktörsgatan Preschool, Åhusgatan Preschool, Villa Canzonetta Preschool, and the Högaborg Family Center. The preschools are located in close proximity to each other. Our approach is project-oriented with a common project title, "Children in the City, the City in Children," where we explore, leave traces, and build relationships with each other and our city in various ways together with the children to create a sustainable future.
Our preschools are inspired by the Reggio Emilia educational philosophy. This means that children are democratically involved in shaping their daily lives in preschool. We want to provide children with opportunities to express themselves, and we work with inspiring and challenging learning environments both indoors and outdoors. We have easy access to beautiful and exciting green areas like Viskstråket and Jordbodalen, where we often walk to experience and explore nature with the children. We are a multicultural area where many different languages and cultures meet, and we see this as a great strength in our work.
As an employee with us, you are important! Here, there are excellent conditions for you in your work.

Our core values of curiosity, participation, and inclusivity are enacted through concrete actions and interactions in our communication and teaching to challenge, stimulate, and support the children's development and learning. We work project-oriented, where children have significant participation by reflecting on their learning with co-researching and attentive educators. The work team has scheduled reflection time every week, where you, together with your colleagues and using pedagogical documentation as an approach, develop the teaching to create multilingual, inclusive, and creative challenges and learning environments for the children. Families are an essential part of our operations, and together in the work team, you invite participation and involvement in various forums.
