The purpose of this article is presenting an overview of the dissertations, carried out in professional master's degree programs, which deal with mathematic's learning in early childhood education. The research is qualitative and uses as an inventive procedure the systematic mapping, in which the central concern is the characterization of the studies and not the analysis and quality inferences. The research scenario consisted of the works that were available in the Capes thesis dissertation catalog, in the time frame from 2013 to 2018. The initial search took place in July 2019, and after the adoption of the exclusion and inclusion criteria, 84 works were presented as the result of this research. Of those, after the parameterization process, with the establishment of 11 descriptors, there were 12 studies about the theme. After this process, we performed the floating reading of the texts and the file. In some cases the works were read in full. The research was categorized into three focus and six thematic subfocus. The results pointed to the relevance of the research, as they presented effective contributions to children's mathematical learning. Nevertheless, most of the work focuses on the realization of diversified methodologies and some texts do not clearly highlight the educational product, an essential criterion in professional stricto sensu programs. Finally, we emphasize that the methodology adopted is not rigid and can be adapted by other researchers, allowing the diversified obtaining of data.
