Objective: to describe the process of introducing foods to children born with cleft lip and palate. Method: descriptive study with a qualitative approach, carried out in a Support Association for Patients with Cleft Lip and Palate. Data collection was carried out from May to July 2022, through audio-recorded interviews, later transcribed and analyzed according to Bardin's Content Analysis technique. The study was approved by the Permanent Ethics Committee on Research with Human Beings with opinion no. 4,095,950. Results: 11 mothers participated, aged between 18 and 40 years. The reports allowed the creation of two thematic categories: Food introduction: process, facilities and challenges and; Nutrition of children born with cleft lip and palate and surgical procedures. Final considerations: Diet is directly influenced by surgical procedures and, although these improve quality of life, they can have a negative impact on nutrition.
