School readiness merupakan konstrak multidimensional yang dipengaruhi oleh berbagai pengalaman perkembangan, termasuk lingkungan pengasuhan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menguji peran attachment sebagai mediator dalam hubungan antara grandparenting dan school readiness pada anak usia dini. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain korelasional. Partisipan berjumlah 56 anak usia 5–6 tahun yang diasuh secara rutin oleh kakek dan/atau nenek. Mereka dipilih melalui purposive sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan instrumen grandparenting berbasis Intergenerational Solidarity Theory, instrumen attachment berbasis Attachment Theory, dan instrumen school readiness berdasarkan National Education Goals Panel. Analisis mediasi dilakukan menggunakan PROCESS Macro Model 4 dengan teknik bootstrapping. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa grandparenting berhubungan positif dan signifikan dengan attachment. Attachment juga berhubungan positif dan signifikan dengan school readiness setelah grandparenting dikontrol. Pengaruh total dan pengaruh langsung grandparenting terhadap school readiness tidak signifikan. Sebaliknya, pengaruh tidak langsungnya melalui attachment signifikan, sehingga menunjukkan pola indirect-only mediation. Artinya, grandparenting berkontribusi terhadap kesiapan sekolah anak melalui terbentuknya kelekatan emosional dengan kakek-nenek. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa kunci kesiapan sekolah anak terletak pada kualitas relasi emosional antara anak dan kakek-nenek, bukan sekadar pada keterlibatan mereka dalam pengasuhan
