Help with Inuit translation?

Hello, all -

I'm doing a music project exploring fish from around the world, naming tracks with their local name. I think Greenland sharks are amazing creatures, and the Inuit folklore surrounding them is wonderful. Problem is, no story I found lists a non-English name, and all the translation websites are now AI crap that I refuse to use.
If anyone could help me or wants to offer creative input regarding the song, I'd really appreciate it.

Vuggestuer/Bornehaver

Hi! We may be moving to Nuuk from Copenhagen next year and I’m hoping to hear from parents who have experience with the vuggestuer and børnehaver there.

Which ones have you had particularly good experiences with, and why? Are there any you would recommend avoiding, or any issues you think a new family should know about?

I’d especially love to hear about things like:
• how caring and engaged the staff are
• staff turnover/staffing shortages
• communication with parents
• how much time the children spend outdoors
• activities and overall environment
• how they handle children who are new to Greenland or don’t speak Greenlandic yet (they do speak Danish)
• wait lists/how difficult it is to get a place

I’ve been looking at places like Mikisoq, Muku, Apisseq, Uiloq, Puiaq, Paannaat and Paarsisoq, but I’m very open to others!

I know experiences can vary a lot from child to child and year to year, so I’d really appreciate hearing both positive and negative experiences. 😊

Qujanaq!
