摘要：The present research investigated the reports of mothers and fathers about the babies’ reactions during the daycare adjustment and also the parents’ feelings and reactions at this moment. Thirteen babies and their parents who entered a daycare center during the differentiation (6th month), practicing (12th month) and rapprochement (20th month) sub-phases of the Separation-Individuation Process, took part in the study. Content analysis revealed that the feed refuse and illness were babies’ reactions in the differentiation and practicing sub-phases. Insecurity feelings were more frequent in the parents whose babies were in the practicing sub-phases, when some did not adjust to the daycare. In the rapprochement sub-phase the babies showed good adjustment despite babies’ initial reactions and some parents’ feelings of insecurity. The study highlights that the parents’ presence in the adjustment period makes the daycare center a landmark for the baby that permits the continuity of the separation-individuation process.
