The development of early childhood education has been relevant in Latin America, as a result of a consensus by the governments in order to guarantee service and quality education for boys and girls. Chile has been important in the region, due to its development in childhood education, driven by a growing institutionalization and an expansion in coverage. However, some experiences in early childhood education, connected to the slum community women in the 80’s, have been made invisible. Our research was conducted for two years, aiming at gaining knowledge about the history and the processes developed by five Community Kindergartens. Their history appears to be connected to a sense of resistance within the neoliberal context of the Chilean education.
