The objective is to analyze the quality of ECE, which emerges from teaching practices in contexts of collective life, considering data from a qualitative research with female teachers who teach in day care centers and preschools, in a Brazilian municipality, as well as national and international standards on the quality of ECE. It is concluded that the quality of ECE that emerges from the analyzed teaching practices explains dimensions with different levels of quality. Initiatives were observed that seek to promote quality through actions undertaken by women teachers in terms of their training, adaptation of physical spaces and the gathering of materials necessary for the development of pedagogical work with children, but which are not yet available. at the level required by the quality parameters established in national guidelines and guidelines for ECE.
