      <dc:description>Early childhood care (ECC) represents a vital service for the families two supports; however,&#xd;
research on the experiences of young professionals working in this field is lacking. The&#xd;
nature of the work is inherently difficult due to lengthy bureaucratic procedures, limited&#xd;
flexibility to adapt services to individual needs, and a lack of financial and human resources.&#xd;
Background/Objectives: This systematic review is to analyze the existence of scientific&#xd;
literature related to mental health and protective and risk factors in these young professionals. Methods: The PRISMA methodology and a comparative analysis of the selected&#xd;
articles were used, incorporating sources from major scientific databases, such as Scopus,&#xd;
Web of Science, and PsycInfo. Results: A total of 19,943 articles were identified, with a&#xd;
striking 0% specifically addressing early childhood intervention. Only 13 of the articles&#xd;
were selected for the analysis of mental health among young healthcare professionals.&#xd;
Conclusions: The literature reviewed highlights risk factors such as depression, anxiety,&#xd;
and stress among health professionals, as well as protective factors like resilience, social&#xd;
support, empathy and the working conditions themselves (working method, working&#xd;
hours, pay, professional value of the workers themselves, administrative workload and&#xd;
opportunities for teamwork). This study is valuable for establishing a scientific foundation&#xd;
for this population and for enhancing its positive characteristics.</dc:description>
