Abstract

Abstract: This study addressed positive parenting in the upbringing of children aged 3 to 5 years in Ecuador's Early Childhood Education Centers, specifically in relation to emotional expression, limit-setting, and self-reflection on their role. The overall objective was to determine the positive parenting competencies developed by fathers and/or mothers in the upbringing of children aged 3 to 5 years in Ecuador's Early Childhood Education Centers. A quantitative, exploratory, and descriptive approach was used, with a sample of 20 parents from the Alejandro R. Mera Educational Unit. A structured survey and the Positive Parenting Scale (E2Pv2) were employed. The results highlighted a high level of parental competencies in affective, formal, and protective aspects; Concluding that the quality of parenting depends both on the educational level of the family type and on the emotional and educational commitment of the caregivers, this highlights the importance of family training programs focused on emotional reflection and regulation within the educational setting.
