Meet the Team

Radhika

Principal

Mit motto er: “Jeg ved, jeg kan, derfor skal jeg”. Jeg har evnen til at gøre en forskel på dagtilbudsområdet, derfor påtager jeg mig det ansvar.

Min rejse startede i erhvervslivet, hvor jeg havde mulighed for at lede og styre projekter og personale. Men destinationen endte med at blive i børnenes univers. Med kandidat i science (MS) og i marketing (MBA), bringer jeg et nysgerrig sind, organiseret tænkning og mange års ledelseserfaring til Rooftop. Desuden giver min bachelor uddannelse som pædagog, kombineret med 7 års erfaring i en af ​​de bedste institutioner, mig et stærkt fundament til at lede mit personale og denne institution.

Jeg er en praktiske leder med pædagogikken i mit hjerte. Man kan derfor ofte finde mig blandt børnene, sammen med personalet. Jeg holder af at have tæt kontakt med forældrene, forstå deres synspunkter og hjælpe dem i det udfordrende arbejde, det kan være, at være forældre. Min mission er kort og godt at skabe det bedste miljø for holistisk udvikling og dannelsen af børn.

Andreas

Pedagogue (Staff dev. & enhancement)

I perceive myself as a caring, patient, reflective and inclusive person. I like to be active in the company of the children. As an educator, I place great emphasis on listening and creating space for the child’s expression. I am simple, lucid and unambiguous with children and create a recognizable setting for children where they can share their experiences. On a daily basis, I express myself visually on canvases with spray and brush paint and like to play football.

Amy

Administrative Assistant

I am a young woman who works with administration at Rooftop. I am a musician at night but during the day I tend to all the calls and emails we receive and all other practical jobs. You can find me in the office in Rooftop 🙂

Lisa

Montessori Pedagogue

I have been working as a Montessori educator for several years and have experience in combining learning and play in the children’s daily lives.  I like to follow and contribute to their daily learning, development and education. I believe that we learn as much from children as we teach them. To ensure a holistic development of the child,  parents and educators must work as a team. Therefore, I attach great importance to understanding parents and to answering their concerns, subjects and questions in the best possible way.

Sevin

Pedagogue

I am a pedagogue and I have worked with speech/hearing impaired children before my pedagogue education. During my education, I did my internship in an institution for children with challenges. As an educator, my focus is making the kids feel cared for based on an appreciative approach that meets each child at eye level. In addition, I emphasize a good parental collaboration with lots of communication, as the interaction between us and parents is an important foundation for the children.

Julie

Pedagogue

I’m a pedagogue with a great focus on language development. I create a learning environment where not only the spoken language is used, but also body language, facial expressions and picture language comes in to play.  Here children will experience my appreciative approach my many smiles and hugs. I emphasise being present, get to know the child’s interests, see the child’s opportunities, and create a safe everyday life that supports a good development.

Mads

Pedagogue

I graduated as a pedagogue in January 2022. Before I started my education, I worked at the daycare Lillekilde for 1,5 years and moreover I have 10 years of experience as a youth trainer in badminton. I enjoy playing actively with the children and seeing how they themselves learn the games and develop them with their wonderful imagination. It is amazing to see them develop all of their competencies through playing and seeing them grow together.

Medine

Pedagogue

I got my degree in pedagogical studies in 2016 and have 2 years of experience in a nursery. In addition, I have three children who have given me the most experience in pedagogy. I define myself as a very smiling and happy person, which also rubs off on the children. In my view, the child must be guided for many hours and be given a hand when necessary. A hand so that it can develop itself. Because the most important thing is to help the child learn their options so that they can develop themselves – put on their own clothes, resolve conflicts, and become part of communities. I organize good settings where children can play and learn together. For me, parental cooperation means a lot, where you build on security and openness.

Alina

Pedagogue

With a master’s degree in English, I have worked with children for several years. I have been working in kindergarten since 2016 and love working with and being around toddlers. A good day is a day with room for creativity, coziness, and care. I believe that children need space to shape and unfold their interests and needs. There should be a place to learn language, physical and social skills, and at the same time space for care, hugs, and recognition. I got my degree in pedagogical studies in 2024.

Aimi

Soon to be Pedagogue

I am an experienced educator with a Bachelor’s and a Masters’s in Social Service, from Bejing University. I prefer to be on the floor with the children – “at the height of children”, involved in planned and spontaneous activities. I am empathetic and very attentive to the thoughts and needs of every child and meet them where they are,. I am good at making learning a fun experience. Besides, I have a great interest in nature, which I like to share and inspire children with.

Sahana

Educated Childcare Assistant

From an accidental teacher to a passionate educator, my journey started in 2012 as just a temporary job leading to a decade of working with children all the way from 3 to 17 year olds. My love for working with children while creating stimulating and comfortable learning environments are something I treasure. Being well experienced working with kids, I aspire to become a well-rounded educator. I did my Post Grad Diploma in Early Childhood Care & Education while training at Rooftop a few years ago. I have also majored in dance/movement & English language development and apply my learning in a way for holistic development of children.

Pany

Educated Childcare Assistant

As a PAU graduate, I have 15 years of experience with both nursery and kindergarten children. As a person, I have good energy, am proactive, approachable, smiling and outgoing. Both parents and colleagues would describe me as caring, listening, playful and present. In my work, I also use a positive and constructive form of communication. Furthermore, I am good at observing and working with different solution models with the children. Rain gear and rubber boots are permanent contents in my rucksack, as it is very important for me to be able to be out with the children in all kinds of weather :).

Emil

Educated Childcare Assistant

I am a trained childcare assistant. I am a young 22 year old who loves sports, plays football and is generally very active. I love being active using motorskills and creating fun creative games. I really like being caring and teaching the children new things.

Loreta

Educated Childcare Assistant

I have been with Rooftop since its birth in 2019. I am popular amongst children and staff as ‘mama Loreta’, because this is who I am. I am an Italian lady whose main passion in life is to offer care, comfort and a feeling of safety. I completed my pedagogic education in Italy in the 80s but worked only briefly as a pedagogue. I strongly believe that a caring and tolerant adult is the only therapy a child needs and in Rooftop I have successfully put my education and this belief to work.

Uma

Montessori Pedagogue

I am a Montessori educated pedagogue with 4 years of experience. I enjoy being surrounded by children and have a natural passion for cheering up and helping small children reach their potential. I am convinced that the development of values like curiosity, discipline, independence, and social skills in young people can create responsible adults. I contribute to Rooftop with my structured and organized way of working with children.

Olena

Steiner Pedagogue

I have for the most part worked as support for a child with special needs. I am interested in sports and being active. I am also musical – I play the flute. I recognize myself most in children who are introverted and shy because I myself am shy. I open up fully when I am with the children, as I am most comfortable in their company. This I use in my work where I support the children, especially the shy and introverted ones, to open up in a safe environment.

Elena

Fatima

Childcare Assistant

My professional background is in Laboratory Dental Techniques, but I have found my great passion, which is working with children. It gives me great joy, which is thanks to the children. Through 3 years of experience, I have built up competencies within the child perspective and child development. In addition, I am very present with the children and want to give them a safe and calm environment in which they can develop. It is important to me that I, as an educational staff, show great empathy and support the child in their development and well-being.

Peter

Childcare Assistant

I am a young man with over 5 years of experience as a childcare assistant. Since a very young age, I was certain about what I wished to do with my life. I have dedicated my life to to building the future society. This, I believe, is best achieved by giving the children a good foundation in life. By supporting Rooftop in this mission, I know I can achieve my goal. Being a child is a value in itself and it is my responsibility to let this value be cherished by all. I strive to be at eye level with children and follow their perspective. Most importantly, I love to play and have not forgotten to play like a child, which I believe is my main contribution to Rooftop.

Mina

Childcare Assistant

I have been working as a Montessori educator for a couple of years and I have a masters in linguistics, where part of it is about language acquisition and development in kids. I enjoy working with children, helping them grow and contribute to their overall development, while safeguarding their wellbeing and supporting them mentally. I believe it is important to establish a nurturing, safe  environment, where the children can thrive. I am an outgoing patient person and try to establish myself as a grownup that the children can confide in.

I am also keen learner and hope to grow professionally with the children in Rooftop.

I relentlessly tried to get back to my chosen career in Denmark, which was difficult as a non-danish speaking person. I learnt Danish and never gave up trying and here I am in Rooftop.  Respect, tolerance and persistence are my core values, which I wish to develop in the children too. Besides, I am dancer with experience as dance instructor and Kids Zumba instructor and I put this skill to full use to support growth and development of the children in Rooftop.

Babitha

Though I had no experience of working in early childhood and care sector, I contribute to the growth and development of children in Rooftop, with my background in HR. My expertise is to listen, understand, respect and mediate. Children are no different from us. They grow, develop and thrive around adults who listen to them, respect their communication and help them navigate the social environment.

Karen

Substitute

I was amongst the first staff to join Rooftop when it opened in 2019. Fresh from my high school, it was my first real job. I was quite certain, from a very young age, that I wanted a career that involved working with children. My experience in Rooftop confirmed this and after 4 years in Rooftop I joined UCC to pursue a bachelor’s in education, to become a teacher. Language is my biggest passion and strength and I love Rooftop, so I returned to Rooftop to be a permanent substitute until I complete my studies. As a substitute, I have one specific job – to focus my efforts on children needing special support with Danish language development.

Katariya

Substitute

I am 22 years old and have been working with children for 4 years. I love children and think its is very important to make them feel safe and happy in my company. In addition, it is also very important for me to follow the children’s curiosity. I am creative and do many different activities that help to shape and develop the children. Sport means a lot to me, and I have, among other things, played football for 14 years. I am a very caring person who always has a smile on her face and cares about good cooperation, both with the kids and my colleagues

Andro

Substitute

I am pursuing my education in Financial Management. I am also a musician and come from a family of musicians. I play several instruments. Music creates magic and kids love fantasy and magic. In my free time I also teach children and adults martial arts at Kasai Kai Karate. In Rooftop, I use my knowledge and experience in these two art forms – the martial arts and music, with a focus on motor sensorial development of the children.

Robert

Cook / Head Chef

I am Rooftop’s cook. I have over 20 years of experience as a chef in hotels. It is an interesting challenge, from servicing grown-ups to satisfying tiny people, -a challenge I look forward to every day. My experience of servicing a variety of requests at the same time, as a chef in a hotel, is of great advantage to address the special needs that many children may have, such as allergies, vegetarianism, religious reason, etc. I hope to bring some colors, aroma, and flavor to Rooftop with my ‘French-Italian connection’

Fausto

Kitchen Assistant

I am the kitchen assistant at Rooftop, but I help all my colleagues anytime and with anything when a helping hand is needed. I am also responsible for general hygiene. You can find me either in the kitchen with a potato peeler in hand, washing up, or preparing food. Sometimes outside watering the plants though.  On Mondays, you will find me with a disinfectant in hand. I disinfect all toys as well as walls, handles, etc. to help protect our lovely children.

Casper

Janitor

I am Rooftops janitor. Although I have a two years diploma in Multimedia design, I chose to work with children and youth. I have worked both as an attendant to children with infantile autism and in day cares and schools as helper and janitor. I worked earlier in Rygaards school as a janitor. As a janitor in Rooftop I can use my of working in an environment of children and youth, and perhaps also involve them in small tasks, such as sweeping and weeding the playground, that are part of our daily lives.
