First of all she words with young children in a public daycare facility center at west of Sao Paulo city. After that she also worked as a manager in another daycare facility center focused on babies in the same city. We have used the following theorical sources Clandinin e Connely (2000);Cochran-Smith e Lytle (2015);Dalberg, Moss e Pence (2019) e Oliveira-Formosinho (2009). Through narratives we have figured out that the experiences of this teacher in early childhood education substantially influenced her actions as an entry level manager position. Despite conditions of the daycare building keeping doors closed due to COVID-19 pandemic, it was clear that the presence of a teacher in the classroom has never been more necessary.
