Self-confidence plays an important role in children's lives because it allows them to be creative according to their talents and abilities in solving problems and improving their quality of life. The study was conducted at a daycare center in Bandung with six participants, namely three caregivers and three parents who had entrusted their children to the center for more than a year. The method used was descriptive qualitative with interview techniques, direct observation, and documentation, and validated through triangulation. The results showed that children's self-confidence developed through consistent routines, play-based learning, and structured activities such as art, music, and outings. Positive reinforcement from caregivers and parental support play an important role in encouraging children to express themselves. This study concludes that collaboration between parents and caregivers is very important in building the self-confidence of early childhood
