O cotidiano de recreadoras de creche: um estudo descritivo
Resumo
O estudo foi implementado em uma creche da cidade do Rio de Janeiro que atendia a famílias de baixa renda. O objetivo foi o de registrar e categorizar as atividades desenvolvidas por recreadoras durante a jornada de trabalho. Um total de 339 sessões de observação foram conduzidas por quatro meses e meio em diferentes períodos do dia e variados locais. As ações foram categorizadas adotando-se o critério de funcionalidade das mesmas. A insatisfação no trabalho, fomentada por diferentes questões institucionais, explicou, em parte, a concentração da rotina na creche em atividades assistencialistas voltadas apenas para a guarda, higiene e alimentação das crianças. Atividades lúdicas e pedagógicas consistiam em uma tarefa a mais, cansativa ou enfadonha, que, para ser realizada, dependia do humor da recreadora ou de exigência direta e rara da coordenação.

Daycare assistants’ routine: A descriptive study
Abstract The purpose of this study was to record and categorize the routine activities developed by daycare assistants working in a daycare for lowsocioeconomic status families located in a slum in the city of Rio de Janeiro. A total of 339 observational sessions were conducted during fourand half months, in different periods of the day, in a variety of settings. Results indicated that the daycare assistants mainly engaged in assistentialist routines directed to provide supervision, hygiene and food to the children. The participants’ lack of satisfaction at work place,augmented by diverse institutional issues, seemed to partially explain the lack of play and pedagogical routines. In general these activities, rarely required from the daycare directory, were viewed as extra tasks that were tiring, tedious and dependent on the assistant’s mood.
