N1 - 20 N2 - This study examined the links between former daycare settings and attachment bonds to the mother and to the teacher at preschool age, considering the child’s age at the beginning of daycare and the type of daycare (daycare center, small groups by a childminder, or mother care). Child attachment at preschool age was assessed through mothers’ and teachers’ self-reports using the Perception of Attachment Behavior Questionnaire. The results showed that children who began external daycare after 9 months of age had higher scores of attachment to their mothers than those who were taken into care before that age. Children cared for by their mothers had higher attachment scores to their mothers than those looked after by a childminder in small groups, and the latter obtained higher scores than those who attended a daycare center. Children’s attachment to their mothers and to their preschool teachers was positively and moderately correlated. These results extend the sparse literature relating former daycare settings and attachments at preschool age UR - https://shs.cairn.info/journal-devenir-2020-0-page-I8?lang=en&redirect-ssocas=7080 ER -
