Abstract
We know that child development and well-being are closely related to the quality of the environment in which the child grows up . In Denmark, almost all children are in professional care from a young age . Childcare quality, as well as supportive families, are important for children’s well-being and development . We know that high-quality early childhood education and care (ECEC) is particularly important for children growing up in disadvantaged families . Low ECEC quality puts the children at risk . Medium quality makes no difference . Only high-quality care pro- vides children with better opportunities for equity and inclusion . With this knowledge, we need to ensure that the quality of the ECEC environments is high . In this article, we give some perspectives on how municipalities can work with organising quality development in ECEC centres
