About Dalaidyllen

Dalaidyllen currently operates residential care facilities (HVB) and consultant-supported foster home care. Since our inception, we have developed our operations with the goal of offering children and young people safe, professional, and cohesive care where relationships, structure, and quality are at the center.

We are now opening Dalaidyllen Vik HVB in Vikmanshyttan – a new residential care home for children and young people aged 9 to 14.

The facility is designed for children and young people with difficulties in emotional regulation, impulse control, social interaction, and norm-breaking behavior, often in combination with trauma, neuropsychiatric disabilities, or other psychosocial challenges.

At Dalaidyllen, treatment pedagogues, treatment coordinators, psychologists, nurses, and doctors work together in an interdisciplinary team. Each profession contributes its expertise, but the treatment is planned, monitored, and developed jointly. This allows us to meet each child from multiple perspectives and create a safe and cohesive care environment.

We are convinced that high quality is created through knowledge, collaboration, and genuine commitment to every child.

About the Role

As a treatment pedagogue, you are a vital part of the children's daily lives. Through relationships, structure, and a clear pedagogical approach, you contribute to creating a safe environment where children are given the opportunity to develop based on their individual needs.

The work is based on each child's implementation plan and takes place in close collaboration with treatment coordinators, psychologists, and other colleagues. A large part of the treatment occurs in everyday life – in school routines, leisure activities, meals, and other situations where children have the opportunity to practice skills, develop new strategies, and strengthen their confidence in their own abilities.

As a treatment pedagogue, you never work alone in the treatment process. You have close support from the facility's treatment coordinator, who coordinates the treatment work and is available for methodological support and follow-up. Together with psychologists, nurses, and doctors, we create good conditions for thoughtful and long-term treatment work.

Among other things, you will:

• work based on the children's implementation plans and individual treatment goals
• serve as a contact person for one or more children
• create structure, safety, and clarity in daily life
• document, follow up, and contribute to the children's development
• conduct child interviews and motivational interviews based on our methods
• collaborate with social services, schools, guardians, and other key partners
• plan and implement activities that strengthen the children's development and participation
• participate in treatment conferences and the facility's quality and development work.
