In this thesis, semi structured interviews and observations have been performed in order to offer and acknowledge pedagogical strategies and in which situations these become visible. Attachment patterns and foremost how educators relate and handle these patterns to reach an affectionate behavior has been the aim for this study. Six educators within the Early Childhood Education were interviewed. The observations were placed at three different preschools, monitoring children between the ages of three and six. The focus however, has been on the preschool teachers. The observation was narrated back to the educators, using the method stimulated recall, encouraging the teachers to reflect around their motives. In this study, we have shown the importance of making the silent knowledge that the educators possess more conscious. Through the observations some patterns where attachment is of importance has been made visible in this thesis and among these are adopting other perspectives.We have also acknowledged the importance of educators being flexible, having a close relation to the children and being available for them.
