Anyone who knows what this is called in English??

I am looking for the correct translations of these two Norwegian professions in English:

 

Vernepleier

Barnevernspedagog

 

I am completely stuck, any clever minds out there who can help?

Would be very grateful!!

Hi, these are the "official" English names for the two professions:

 

Vernepleier: Social Educator

Barnevernspedagog: Child Care Worker

(http://www.fo.no/english/category28.html)

 

Note that there's a possibility of confusing "Child Care Worker" with someone who works in a kindergarden/preschool.

Hi, I also found a second English name for Barnevernspedagog:

"Child welfare officer".
