Abstract(s)
Com o presente estudo pretende-se dar a conhecer as experiências das famílias
vividas ao longo do processo de adaptação dos/as filhos/as à creche. Este estudo
carateriza-se pela sua natureza mista, assente na análise e recolha de dados qualitativos e
quantitativos, por permitir compreender de forma mais abrangente e detalhada as
vivências das famílias durante o processo de adaptação.
A problemática deste estudo prende-se com um interesse profissional e pessoal,
por desempenhar funções de auxiliar de ação educativa numa sala de creche. Assim,
surgem as questões de investigação: Quantos processos de adaptação das crianças à
creche, experienciou cada uma das famílias?, Como se sentiram as famílias durante o
processo de adaptação? e Quais os recursos utilizados pelas famílias durante o
processo?, Que por sua vez se suportam nos seguintes objetivos: identificar quantos
processos de adaptação as famílias vivenciaram até ao momento e quais desses processos
foram os mais e menos tranquilos; compreender o estado emocional das famílias no processo de adaptação das crianças à creche; perceber a influência da duração (dias,
semanas, meses) do processo de adaptação na reação das famílias no momento de
acolhimento e por último, entender quais foram os recursos mais importantes para as
famílias no processo de adaptação das crianças à creche.
Para a concretização dos objetivos referidos, recolheram-se, analisaram-se e
concluíram-se os dados obtidos através de questionários realizados a 39 famílias, bem
como de entrevistas a 3 famílias selecionadas. Destaca-se a importância dos aspetos éticos
assumidos neste estudo, de forma a garantir o respeito pelos participantes e a integridade
da pesquisa, a partir da Carta de Princípios para uma Ética Profissional.
Os dados obtidos conferem as seguintes conclusões: os estados emocionais que as
famílias apresentaram quando entregaram as crianças à equipa educativa, influenciaram
diretamente os comportamentos manifestados pelas crianças; existe relação entre o
número de filhos e os processos de adaptação mais tranquilos e serenos/ mais difíceis e
complexos; as dificuldades que as famílias sentiram durante o processo de adaptação dos
filhos/as refletem-se no momento da separação; os recursos mobilizados pelas famílias
para facilitar ou superar as dificuldades sentidas recaíram sobre o apoio no
marido/mulher, na equipa educativa e noutros familiares.
This study aims to present the experiences of families throughout the adaptation process of their children to daycare. It is characterized by its mixed nature, relying on the analysis and collection of qualitative and quantitative data, allowing for a more comprehensive and detailed understanding of families' experiences during the adaptation process. The research problem arises from both professional and personal interests, as the researcher works as an educational assistant in a daycare setting. Thus, the research questions emerged: How many adaptation processes did each family experience regarding their children's transition to daycare? How did families feel during the adaptation process? And what resources did families utilize during this process? These questions are supported by the following objectives: to identify how many adaptation processes families have experienced so far and which ones were the most and least smooth; to comprehend the emotional state of families during their children's adaptation to daycare; to understand the influence of the duration (days, weeks, months) of the adaptation process on families' reactions at the moment of admission; and finally, to grasp which resources were most significant for families during their children's adaptation to daycare. To achieve these objectives, data were collected, analyzed, and concluded from questionnaires administered to 39 families, as well as interviews conducted with 3 selected families. The study highlights the importance of ethical considerations to ensure respect for participants and the integrity of the research, following the Principles of Professional Ethics. The obtained data lead to the following conclusions: the emotional states presented by families when entrusting their children to the educational team directly influenced the behaviors exhibited by the children; there is a correlation between the number of children and the smoother/more difficult and complex adaptation processes; the difficulties families experienced during their children's adaptation process are reflected in the moment of separation; the resources mobilized by families to facilitate or overcome the difficulties encountered relied on support from spouses, the educational team, and other relatives.
