The purpose of this reflection article is to highlight the quality of preschool education based on the attributes for Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) in Latin America. Since the 1990s, the educational overview is aimed at guaranteeing the right to equal and quality education, focusing efforts on childhood. The article has four sections. The first characterizes the situation of the Latin American education system in the 1980s and 1990s, which develops the frames of reference for quality in preschool education today. The second describes the concepts of educational quality and preschool education, and highlights the right to education. The third focuses on the reflection on various connotations of the concept of childhood and early childhood. The fourth discusses preschool education from the attributes and main challenges for quality care and education. Finally, the reflections that call to continue working as teachers and researchers around this subject are exposed.
