    Starting daycare is a big change in family’s everyday life. Depending on the kindergarden and family the methods of starting vary althought ”soft landing” is now prefered. Cooperating with parents and educational partnership are an important part of safe and natural daycare beginning. In some kindergartens primary nursing can support and make the transition easier. However sometimes there are situations where educational staff should know how beginning daycare shows in families and what kind of support they would need with the beginning. The objective of the study is to open up how beginning daycare in homes and families adapt to it. My research questions are as follow: 1. How of daycare is arranged? 2. How the of daycare shows in family everday life? 2.1 How has one related to the of daycare? 2.2 How has one adapted to the of daycare? The material consisted of ten blogs ans posts within the blogs which dealt with the of daycare. The material was analyzed with material based content analysis. The study stated that starting discussion and the material from the discussion are an important part of the transition. The transition to daycare happens usually with soft landing, but 1–2 days of getting to know daycare is also common. In one family there was no time in which the family got to know the daycare. Parents tense about the of daycare because of the changing routines and because of the childs adaption. Children react to the of daycare in many ways. In separation situations crying was the most common way to react in the beginning. One adapted to daycare relatively quickly althought after the daycare day fatigue and longing for closeness were present. On should pay more attention in the start of daycare to that the changes from transition are being handled more like the way childrens in usually react to transition. Daycare staff has a large importance to how the transition is going and how much parents tense the transition. It is important to create a safe feeling.

    This study was inspired by Kindergarten Association website’s claim that the highest trained educators are transferred to groups of older children. The study deals education, care, pedagogy and quality of under three years old children in the day care. The study aimed to find out how common is that the groups of children under three years of age, don’t have trained kindergarten teachers. The data was collected through questionnaires that were sent to day care centers operating with children under the age of three. 20 kindergartens were selected from one municipality of Southern Finland. Majority of day care centers had a kindergarten teacher, but number of teachers that focused mainly on children under three years old was low. Kindergarten teachers was often responsible for the older children in the group and Nursery Nurses took care of the youngest. Therefore, it may be that children under three years of age receive lower quality of care. The average group size was less than 20 children, and it was executed per the ratio of children and adults given in day care legislation. However, there were variance in the size and number of adults in the groups. Also study’s municipality day cares’ quality has variance when monitoring the quality of the day care based on the ratio given above. The results showed that the respondents felt that primary nursing is not important for children under the age of three. Bachelors of Social Welfare and Nursery Nurses felt topic important and results were statistically significant. Nursery Nurses think that primary nursing is part of the group activities and they are more receptive to practice of primary nursing. Perception of pedagogical education of an adult working in a day care group varies between Teachers, Nursery Nurses and Practical Nurses. Teachers believes that pedagogically trained adult working in the group has importance. The hypothesis in the study was that the pedagogically highly educated educators would mostly agree with the thesis. This was not the case. Kindergarten Teachers mainly responded by giving lower values which correlates to lower importance, when Practical Nurses responded with higher values and higher importance.
