A primeira infância, fase que compreende do nascimento aos seis anos de idade, constitui-se em um alicerce importante para o desenvolvimento humano, sendo caracterizada como uma “janela de oportunidades”. Portanto, nesse período ótimo e sensível do desenvolvimento, as estimulações ambientais precisam ser oportunamente propiciadas para que ocorram as principais aprendizagens básicas por parte das crianças, a fim de se desenvolverem plenamente de forma saudável e adaptada. A criança precisa de cuidado à saúde, segurança alimentar, cuidado afetivo e responsivo, aprendizagens em ambientes educacionais de qualidade e garantia de direitos, pois esses aspectos são essenciais para promoção do desenvolvimento infantil. Não se pode perder a oportunidade deste momento otimizado para o desenvolvimento das habilidades básicas e as aprendizagens iniciais. “Se você muda o começo da história, você muda toda a história” - The Beginning of Life.
