This graduate thesis focuses on the attitudes of the respondents about the process of adaptation of children in the nursery school. The first part of the thesis talks about the child's development, attachment and adaptation to the nursery. The importance of nursery teachers and the partnership that develops between parents and educators is emphasized. In the second part, research was conducted on 43 respondents in the cities of northwestern Istria. The aim of this paper was to determine the attitudes of educators about the process of adaptation of children in daycare centers. An effort was made to consider what educators are key components in the adaptation process, what they expect from parents in that stressful period, how to help children go through the process of adapting to a new environment as painlessly as possible, as researched by the nursery school. The hypotheses set and the results obtained show that educators emphasize the importance of open communication between parents and educators as a key component in order to resolve crisis situations during the child's adjustment. Most educators believe that an individualized approach to the child facilitates the process of the child's adaptation to the nursery, and that by developing empathy and expressing feelings, it promotes the emotional well-being of the children in the nursery. The majority of respondents consider useful workshops on creating a district incentive and cooperation with other experts in support during the process of adaptation of children at the nursery and state that support networks with colleagues are important as useful channels for support during the process of adaptation of a child at the nursery. Educators emphasize the importance of parental engagement and preparation of children at daycare, which are key components and main responsibilities of parents, and open communication, honesty and cooperation in achieving common goals predict a successful partnership. We can conclude that the teacher's role in the adaptation process itself is extremely important for the child. Mutual cooperation and parents' trust in the educator play an important role in the child's further growth and development, and open communication has proven to be crucial in order to resolve crisis situations during the child's adjustment.
