Educator for Parent Cooperative Kojan in Mora

Do you want to work in a small, nature-oriented preschool with great dedication and close collaboration between staff and families? We are now looking for an educator for Parent Cooperative Kojan in Mora.

About Us

Parent Cooperative Kojan is a small-scale preschool located in Hemus, Mora. We are a parent cooperative run as an economic association where guardians are involved in the operations by sitting on the board or holding other roles.

About 18–20 children aged 1–6 attend our preschool, and we work with high staff-to-child ratios in small groups. Our operations are characterized by security, community, and close collaboration between educators and families.

We have a clear focus on nature and technology, where children's curiosity and desire to learn are central. Through play, exploration, and experiences in nature, children develop using all their senses. We are close to the forest and also work with Friluftsfrämjandet's activities such as Skogsmulle, Knytte, and Knopp.

A major strength of ours is our own chef who cooks meals from scratch, focusing on organic and locally sourced ingredients.
