<![CDATA[Early childhood autonomy is a condition where children are ready to do everything without the help of other people, including being able to be left by their parents for a while, choosing their activities, being able to use the toilet but still being helped or reminded, eating and drinking by themselves. Autonomy can be formed from two factors: 1) Internal factors, including physiological and psychological conditions, and 2) External factors, including the environment, feelings of love and affection, parenting patterns in the family, life experiences and habits. Besides being cared for at home, young children are also cared for in Daycare (TPA) because their parents work. This research aims to describe the factors that influence the development of autonomy in children aged 2-3 years in daycare settings. The type of research used is qualitative, using Miles and Huberman data analysis techniques. The stages of data analysis include data reduction, data presentation and conclusion.
