Cooperation between educational establishments and families is a key relationship, arising from joint decision-making, mutual recognition and joint activities in the centre of which are children's needs and interests. By joint action of the family and the educational institution, parents receive feedback on the development of the child, its personalities as well as interests. The characteristics of collaborative relationships depend on individuals who are participants in a collaborative relationship, institution and cultural environment. A family and preschool partnership presupposes the involvement of parents in all aspects of education, because of their primary influence on the child. The aim of the study involving two educators and two parents of Krapina-zagorje county was to establish the opinion of parents and educators on cooperation and collaborative relationships, on the forms of cooperation they apply and how often. The results show satisfaction with the cooperation of educational establishment and family in the data subject. At some point in cooperation, the respondents see how we can go to examples where attitudes, thinking, and suggestions do not match, that is, but this does not lead to concrete obstacles. In pandemics, cooperation becomes more challenging for educators and parents as well as activities contributing to child rearing. The pandemic of the corona virus has limited most of the events that parents could attend to in preschool, thus the only form of cooperation and communication that parents say was through parental meetings and short information talk during the bringing or picking up a child.
