The coronavirus, which appeared in China’s city of Wuhan at the end of 2019, has been declared a pandemic on March 11, 2020 by the World Health Organization, due to a global epidemic that spread to a very broad scale in a short time and affects the entire world.The covid-19 epidemic, which continues to be influenced and is expected to be influenced at least in the near future, has not only changed the lifestyle of individuals, daily life practices, habits, behaviors; has profoundly influenced the lives of all individuals, leading to the implementation of practices such as social distance rule, street ban, quarantine, home-to-home process, travel restrictions, flexibility at working hours, the closure of institutions and workplaces, work from home, distance education and the new normal process.When the pandemic process is seen in particular in Turkey, it was announced that the first vacancy was detected on 11 March 2020, and that the schools were suspended on 16 March 2020.The disruption of schools has led children and young people to continue their educational processes from home through distance learning, while many working parents have also made it possible to switch from home to work practice.In terms of the stages of the Turkish educational system, the system of distance education in the primary, secondary, and higher education stages could be implemented but has not achieved functionality within the framework of the pre-school educational institutions that take over the care and education of children between 0 and 6 years of age.At this point, the process has become quite devastating for working mothers with children or children between 0 and 6 years of age in the process of staying in a home due to pandemic.In this context, the study, by conducting conversations with working mothers with children who have been forced to interrupt the pre-school education institutions in the process of stay at home, has been attempted to obtain detailed information about the process and difficulties they have to live.In this context, the conversations were carried out online through the semi-configured forms of conversations with the 12 working mothers achieved by the patch sample method, due to the reintensity of the pandemic process and the increase of anxiety.In the research, the visual analysis method of the quality research methods has been used in order to acquire specific and profound information about the situation.The conversations were recorded, and the disclosures were made.The findings of the research were attempted to be discussed through individual decrypts obtained from conversations within the framework of specific topics and codes., secondary, and higher education students can benefit from distance education, no distance education has yet been provided for children aged 0-6 years.the "stay-home order" due to the covid-19 pandemic has been extremely frustrating for children aged 0-6 years and their working mothers.Therefore, this study investigated the repercussions and challenges of the stay-home order for working mothers of children missing out on preschool education.The sample consisted of 12 mothers recruited using snowball sampling.participants were interviewed using semi-structured forms.data were collected online due to the growing concerns about the threat posed by the covid-19 pandemic.data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, a qualitative research method, to assess the phenomenon in question as it was and in detail.The interviews were recorded and transcribed.the results were discussed within the scope of the developed themes and codes.
