What is supposed to be a child from food in the clinic. What exactly is to be received. Arrangement of free meals
Mother's milk has always been the best food for babies, but for many reasons, not all mothers have the opportunity to breastfeed. A substitute for it can be infant formula, which can be prepared at home. This allowance is also issued by the distribution point. Children's Dairy Kitchen is a social program that includes free meals for children under the age of two.
Dairy Kitchen is a government institution for the provision of milk to infants.
In 2018, as before, the decision to issue benefits in the form of dairy products at milk distribution points is made by local governments, for this reason they are not represented in every region and are arranged differently. But still there are provisions that are common to most cities.
At what age can a baby be fed:
- If the baby is bottle-fed (infant formula), food is given from the day of his birth.
- When breastfeeding, the child receives the right to food from the moment when complementary foods are introduced to him (from about 6 months).
- You can get products from the dairy kitchen until the child is two years old.
- Children from large families are given food from the children's kitchen until the age of 3.
Paperwork
Before you come to a distribution point in Khimki or Mytishchi, you need documents for benefits. To qualify for dairy food, you must register by submitting an application to your pediatrician, a sample of which can be obtained from your local children's clinic. Taking into account the number of years and weight of the child, as well as information about his state of health, nutrition, the doctor prepares a prescription for a distribution point for the amount of dairy products that the baby needs for full development.
In 2018, prescriptions for child nutrition allowance at the distribution point will be issued every month until the 25th.
Documents must be submitted to the distribution point. Instead of a prescription for benefits, they give a personal number that must be remembered and recorded in the child's medical record in order to call when issuing meals.
At some points of distribution, only parents are given food, for other relatives, an application and a power of attorney are required. The order of work, the schedule and hours of issuing dairy products in a particular kitchen must be found out in advance. Kefir, cottage cheese, dry and fermented milk mixture are usually given in the morning, up to 10 hours. If the child willingly eats cottage cheese, but is allergic to whole milk or formula, try to negotiate with the doctor about replacing certain products in the recipe, in particular milk, with an additional serving of cottage cheese.
Sometimes a distribution point at the place of registration offers mothers to receive formula and other food, even if the family lives in a completely different place. The addresses of the dairy kitchen should correspond to the area in which the clinic is located (Khimki, Lobnya, Mytishchi), but the subtleties must be clarified with the pediatrician who has the child. What are the conditions for young mothers in 2018 in cities where there are no dairy kitchens?
If there is no distribution point in the city or village, the mother has the right to monetary compensation for the purchase of baby food. This issue is within the competence of the district department of social security.
Who needs dairy
To arrange food at distribution points for free, you first need to find out if this service is provided in a particular region (Mytishchi, Khimki), and what registration procedure you need to go through. This information can be obtained from the health departments where the distribution point is located. Are dairy products suitable for pregnant mothers? From what age and up to how many years can children receive it?
Until the age of four months, the allowance is due if the mother does not have enough milk for breastfeeding, formula is used, or for other reasons she is unable to breastfeed the baby. Each region sets its own rules of work, but, in general, in order to receive food at a dairy point, it is necessary to constantly register a baby under the age of two years in a particular locality.
Can children under 3 years of age receive products?
Until what age do children receive milk food? After one year, free baby food is given, as a rule, to single mothers and low-income families.
Documents to apply for the right to baby food for a child of 2-3 years old for free:
- Certificates of income of parents for 3 months;
- Certificate of registration from the passport office (for children and adults);
- birth certificates;
- Photocopies of parents' passports.
It is necessary to clarify the list in local governments, since other documents may be required at the place of work.
What is given in the dairy kitchen
Dairy kitchens give children under two years of age the highest quality dairy products that meet all sanitary standards. The finished mixture and other products of the dairy kitchen are stored for no more than a day, so it can even be used in the nutrition of infants from the moment of birth. A short implementation period confirms the absence of preservatives that contribute to long-term storage.
The products offered by the baby food distribution point differ from the products from the supermarket shelves in that they are prepared on the basis of natural (rather than powdered) milk, as in factories. Ready-made meals and mixtures from the dairy kitchen are not subjected to special processing to increase the shelf life. In different regions, working conditions and the range of products may differ, for example, in Moscow, many points (Khimki, Mytishchi, Lobnya) have switched to issuing factory meals, mainly from the Agusha company. The main disadvantage of such products is heat treatment, which is used in the factory to increase the shelf life. What are the conditions for issuing meals and working hours?
The distribution point produces food in the morning, every other day. If only milk or formula is indicated in the recipe, you can come for it once every 5 days. The work schedule of points (hours of issue): 6.30 - 10.00. This mode is due to the fact that many parents prefer to come for meals before work, in the morning.
Sometimes the pediatrician refuses to write out documents for the dairy kitchen on the grounds that the baby is breastfeeding. This is a violation of the rules - all children, without exception, are entitled to food from the dairy kitchen for free. Also, the doctor does not have the right to refuse to issue a prescription for dairy products and formula in the absence of vaccinations for the child or any tests. Such misunderstandings should be resolved with the head physician of the clinic.
Will dairy cuisine be canceled in 2018
According to various Internet news resources, deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation want to cancel food outlets (free of charge) throughout the country from January 1, 2018. What are the arguments in favor of innovation? This is due to the fact that there is no money in the treasury, so we decided to save on children. The problem with dairy kitchens is that many dairy food certificates expire next year.
To obtain a new permit, the following documents are required:
- Compliance with the requirements of the Customs Union (new equipment, recent renovation of the premises);
- Registration of state registration.
Benefit or product: which is more profitable
By law, children from 1-3 years of age in various cases have the right to receive a standard set of dairy products. But since many families do not use these benefits, the state budget incurs unjustified costs. The main reason for refusing to visit the children's kitchen lies in the conditions of their work: for many mothers, travel to the distribution point (Khimki, Mytishchi, Lobnya) back and forth is more expensive than the products that are given there. Someone simply does not have the opportunity to leave an infant to go for the food he is supposed to. Therefore, the government of the Russian Federation proposes to carry out from January 1, 2018, the "monetization" of all mothers with small children, as well as pregnant women.
Many regions have already switched to cash compensation for milk nutrition for children under two years of age and pregnant mothers. But, unfortunately, these amounts are significantly inferior to the price of a set of mandatory products from the dairy kitchen. For example, in the Yaroslavl region they give compensation in the amount of 200 rubles, while in the Leningrad region - 700 rubles. And in Chuvashia, such payments amount to only 100 rubles. Most parents are against such changes, since you cannot buy the products that are given out in children's kitchens with this money. There is still no formula for calculating the monetary equivalent. The cost of a basket of baby food is 50 rubles. It is impossible to buy a similar set of products in stores with this money.
According to some experts, changing the form of benefits for pregnant women and young mothers from January 1, 2018 is economically beneficial for the authorities.
The material benefit is:
- In savings on the maintenance of baby food distribution points since the beginning of 2018;
- In the need to control their work in compliance with all standards of sanitary hygiene;
- in the payment of salaries to staff.
Far from all young mothers use the services of a dairy kitchen. Someone for personal reasons, but someone simply does not have the opportunity. However, if there is a distribution point for children's products in the area, you should not refuse the opportunity referring to any reasons, because a healthy child is a joy for his parents.
Dairy cuisine, as a measure of social assistance, did not remain in the distant Soviet past, but exists on the territory Russian Federation still. In accordance with federal legislation, this program is financed from regional budgets, so it is at the local level that a decision is made on which benefit group is entitled to free distribution of baby milk and what are the norms for issuing special food.
Who is eligible for free dairy kitchen?
Throughout Russia, the following groups of the population have the right to receive milk on a free basis:
- babies under one year old who eat artificial mixtures or receive a combined diet;

- preschool children up to the age of seven from families with many children;
- disabled children until the age of fifteen.
Expectant mothers and women who feed their children with breast milk have the right to receive special milk until the child is six months old.
If a child who was left without parental care had the right to receive special milk, the right can be transferred to his guardians.
To receive milk, you must first take a doctor's note who observes a pregnant woman in a antenatal clinic, or at a pediatrician who observes children. The standard diet of a dairy kitchen includes milk mixtures in dry and liquid form, cereals, mashed vegetables and fruits, as well as juices.

February 23, 2018 
Before 2016, many experts assumed that dairy kitchens in the capital would either be abolished altogether and residents would be provided with appropriate cash benefits, or they would be reorganized and placed at pharmacies. The bills approved by the Department of Health of the capital left dairy kitchens in their original form. They carry out their activities in most cases at children's clinics, while in 2016 their range was significantly expanded.

Data as of April 2016
From the table above, it can be seen that the range of products is quite large and includes both milk formulas for very young children, and mashed potatoes, kefir, and cottage cheese for older children. In addition, the legislator provided for the supply of products with the availability of various types of juices and purees, which the supplier determines independently.
Who will supply products for the dairy kitchen in 2016
Among applicants for the supply of products for dairy cuisine, a competition is held annually, the obligatory conditions of which are the availability of certificates for children's products that meet all the requirements of the Customs Union.
According to the results of the competition, the following suppliers were selected for 2016:
- Agat LLC (complementary foods, juices);
- OJSC Wimm-Bill-Dann (milk and kefir);
- JSC "Novomilk" (milk and cottage cheese).
Therefore, the cottage cheese supplied by Novomilk JSC will be Krepysh, and the kefir supplied by Wimm-Bill-Dann OJSC will be Agusha-1 and Agusha-2. These suppliers are manufacturers, so it was not difficult to determine the type of baby products supplied.
LLC "Agat" is not a manufacturer, but carries out only wholesale trade. It will be impossible to determine which specific canned food, as well as juices, will be supplied. Only the range of types of canned food and juices is known:
- mashed potatoes with veal, pork, chicken, turkey (meat and vegetable with chicken and beef);
- puree vegetables such as cauliflower, pumpkin, broccoli, carrots, and squash;
- puree from the following fruits: apple, apricot, pear, as well as berry-fruit with the addition of currants or blueberries.
Attention! All canned foods provided under the program are supplied without added preservatives and starch.
What is included in the dairy cuisine for pregnant and lactating
The menu of dairy cuisine in the capital for pregnant women and for nursing mothers is juice and milk. The difference lies only in the monthly volumes of products provided. So, for pregnant women with a permanent registration of the norm of products are the following:
Nursing mothers are provided with approximately 1/3 more products, which is 12,000 g and 4,290 g, respectively. Pregnant women receive products from the moment they register with a medical institution and after writing an application for the provision of products within the framework of the project. The distribution of products is carried out throughout the pregnancy.
Procedure for registration of a dairy kitchen: requirements and documents
The recipient of the products must write a personal statement. Pregnant and lactating mothers write an application in person and act independently as recipients. If the recipients of dairy products by law are children, regardless of their age, then the application is written by one of the parents or other legal representatives (guardians or adoptive parents).
This application should be sent to the head of the medical institution, on the basis of which the applicant is subsequently included in the lists of persons for the distribution of products free of charge. The organization to which the application is submitted is determined depending on the category of recipients, namely:
- pregnant women should send an application to the antenatal clinic;
- parents of children and nursing mothers should apply to the medical institution where the child is observed (as a rule, the clinic at the place of registration).
In addition to the application, documents are attached that confirm the right to receive products from the dairy kitchen. Among these documents are:
In addition, documents are required to establish that the potential recipient of dairy products has a permanent registration in Moscow, since the program in question is valid only for residents of the capital.
Time and rules for issuing children's products in dairy kitchens in Moscow
The order contains a specific time for the issuance of preferential products. So, the operating mode for distribution points is set from 06:30 to 12:00 daily. At the moment, in various districts of the capitals, the distribution of products within the framework of the project is constantly carried out by up to 6 milk distribution points at each children's polyclinic.
Attention! To resolve issues of providing preferential categories with products from dairy cuisine, Moscow residents should contact the Hot Line numbers that work at each children's clinic.
Delivery of goods is carried out on the basis of the relevant prescriptions of doctors. To issue such a prescription, you should come to the doctor's appointment with the child, if the recipient is a child.
Prescriptions for pregnant women and children under 1 year of age are issued within a month from the date of application, for lactating women and children under 3 years of age up to 3 months, for other social categories up to six months.
Will dairy kitchens be cancelled?
This issue has been discussed for a long time not only among recipients of preferential products, but also among legislators. The introduction of anti-crisis measures throughout the country only exacerbates the situation.
It is likely that dairy kitchens will not be completely abolished in the coming years, since the policy of the state is aimed primarily at ensuring a happy childhood. The provision of socially unprotected categories, which include recipients of free products, is an important social guarantee.
In almost every developed country there is such a thing as a dairy kitchen. Russia is no exception. This unit is intended for families with small children (up to two or three years old) and is a form of assistance from the state. The composition of the issued dairy products may vary depending on the city. But in order to receive such state assistance, you need to collect the necessary list of documents and go through a certain procedure, which will be discussed below.
Like any state aid, in order to receive dairy products from the kitchen, you need to collect a certain list of documents.
The following documentation is required to process meals in a dairy kitchen:
- a statement written in the name of the head physician of the designated medical institution to which you are applying for meals;
- certificate of average family income;
- the applicant's internal passport;
- a copy of the certificate registering the fact of the birth of the child;
- a certificate issued by a children's clinic confirming the transfer from breastfeeding or artificial to mixed feeding of a newborn;
- a certificate giving information on the number and composition of registered persons in the place of residence of the applicant;
- a certificate that is issued upon registration of a person at the place of arrival (when issuing a certificate of average family income);
- certificate, with information on family income for the last three months. It should include the following information: salary, pension, alimony, unemployment benefit, scholarships, etc.;
- work book (copy) or employment contract. This document is needed in the case when an able-bodied family member is not currently working;
- documentation confirming the lack of income (for example, the lack of payment of various benefits, scholarships, limited working capacity, etc.);
- certificate of registered marriage or divorce thereof (copy);
- certificate of the appointment of alimony (which are received and paid);
- a written statement from one of the guardians or parents confirming that there is no previous permission to receive free dairy products;
- a prescription issued by a local pediatrician, which makes it possible to receive free milk baby food. A prescription is issued only if the parents came to the appointment with the baby, otherwise the doctor cannot prescribe it (although this fact depends on the region). The prescription is issued for a month and contains information about the quantities and composition of the dairy products received;
- a medical policy for a child on his compulsory insurance;
- a certificate confirming the registration of the newborn at the place of residence of his parents;
- documents that may be the basis for issuing free milk meals: a certificate confirming that the family has many children, a child has a disability or chronic illness, etc.
Registration stages
Registration of this state aid is possible in several places (it all depends on the need and the situation in which it is issued).
Stages of dairy kitchen design:
- Finding out if this service is available in your city. Information is issued by the Department of Health;
- contacting your child's pediatrician for a prescription required in the kitchen. The prescription number is entered into the child's card. The prescription must be taken every month, and before the 25th;
- after that, you need to collect the remaining documents and submit them to the food outlet at the place of residence. You can receive the ordered dairy products within ten days from the date of registration.
The norm of issuance in the usual case is once every two days, and in the case of prescribing only milk, you need to receive food once every five days.
The delivery of food is carried out only during strictly defined hours of operation of milk. They usually work from early morning, even on holidays and weekends.
Orders in the kitchen, depending on the area, can vary greatly. So, in some regions, dairy products can be issued only to the parent who issued the permit (issuance to other persons is possible only with a written power of attorney), in others - to relatives or even acquaintances.
Who needs dairy
Before ordering this assistance, you need to find out if you are eligible for it.
The list of persons who are entitled to this state assistance may vary depending on the region of the country.
In an approximate form, the list of persons who are entitled to free milk meals includes;
- newborn children up to a year in case of combined or artificial feeding;
- children in the age range from one to two;
- children who belong to a large family (up to seven years);
- disabled children under 15 years of age;
- pregnant women. In this situation, the conclusion on the issuance of milk nutrition is drawn up by the doctor of the antenatal clinic who leads the pregnancy;
- lactating women until the newborn reaches six months of age.
It is legally established that only one of the parents / guardians is entitled to receive permission for free meals for newborns and children of the second year of life in the following situations:
- for a newborn (up to a year old), parents are eligible whose average per capita family income does not exceed two living wages in size (calculated per capita);
- for children in the age range from one to two years with an average per capita family income of parents that does not exceed one living wage (calculated per capita).
Children over the age of two are generally not eligible for free meals. However, in some regions exceptions are allowed (for example, in Moscow). Therefore, such opportunities should be additionally learned directly on the ground.
All children can be fed, regardless of diet, health and most medical conditions.
In addition to the above requirements for recipients, a mandatory medical opinion is required to apply for this type of assistance.
Getting a prescription
In this section, we will consider in more detail the moment of receipt of the recipe. As already noted, it is prescribed by the local pediatrician. The doctor draws up a prescription based on the child's indicators: weight, height, health status and nutritional characteristics.
To obtain a prescription, you must provide a certificate confirming the appropriate average per capita income for the specified family, as well as information about the composition of the family.
The prescription is issued to the applicant on the same day that the application was made.
After the prescription has been written out, the registration of this assistance can be considered almost completed.
What kind of food is served in the kitchen?
The norm that determines the issuance of milk nutrition is calculated by local governments. They also regulate the procedure for its registration and determine the organization that will deal with its issuance.
