This study comes from one of the author's professional experience as school psychologist at a Pro-education Association in Plano Piloto (Brasilia). Considering that the Federal Constitution establishes the democratic management as a principle for public education, our goal was to create a proposal for the school psychologist's work towards the democratic management of public Infant Education schools. The research was conducted in two phases: (1) interviews with three of the Association's former school psychologists and a report of professional experience produced by the researcher; (2) interviews with seventeen managers and two psychologists from public Infant Education schools and with a regional coordinator of the psychology service. We argue that the school psychologist's role must be to work alongside the school members participating in their routine with different actions, such as: constructing the political and pedagogical project, mediating interpersonal relations, listening to the unspoken in the school's communication, offering a different view to individuals' uniqueness and understanding the diversity of human development.
