This article aims to entwine the narratives of teachers and founders of an early childhood education institution and their practices with children in the poor outskirts of Belo Horizonte. Memories of the foundation of this daycare center community and moments from the childhood of some of its teachers were gathered through ethnographic approach. These memories were considered as central elements for the analysis of some institutional practices. The analysis of the teachers' narratives and their daily practices shows that the way of remembering implies on the way these practices are reconstructed in the everyday life of the institution, either ensuring or hindering children's social rights.
