As primeiras creches foram instaladas no Brasil com o intuito de reduzir os índices de mortalidade infantil, garantindo o acesso à alimentação saudável, visando à promoção da saúde e o pleno desenvolvimento. Porém a ocorrência de Doenças Transmitidas por Alimentos vem aumentando. A Organização Mundial da Saúde estima que anualmente ocorram 1,8 milhões de mortes de crianças menores de 5 anos de idade em todo mundo, atribuídas ao consumo de alimentos contaminados. Entretanto, a legislação brasileira não prevê normas específicas de funcionamento para cozinhas de creches. Sendo assim, o objetivo desse estudo é pesquisar as normativas relacionadas ao funcionamento das creches, discutindo os regulamentos sanitários pertinentes à produção de alimentos. Através de uma revisão em páginas eletrônicas de diversos Órgãos, foram levantados regulamentos inerentes ao funcionamento e produção de alimentos em creches. Considerando as vinte e sete legislações encontradas, observa-se uma preocupação com a água, o fornecimento de gêneros, o controle de pragas e vetores, as condições estruturais e as políticas de Alimentação. Apesar disso, nota-se que nem sempre as políticas de vigilância da qualidade da alimentação oferecida nas creches são efetivas, assim como se percebe a ausência de um regulamento específico que determine os critérios de qualidade para uma manipulação segura de alimentos.
