Violence against children is pointed like one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in childhood and should be identified by all professionals who deal with this public, including teachers. The aim was to evaluate the preparation of infantile education teachers, concerning the perception and notification of cases of violence against children. All the child educational institutions in Araçatuba-City, SP, Brazil were visited. The professionals who consented (n=236), answered a questionnaire about that theme. The data was analyzed on the quantitative and qualitative form. 91.1% of professionals considered themselves responsible for notification and 86.9% feel themselves able to identify attacks. 80.9% had received information about violence against children; however, 67.7% feel insecure about the identification of cases. It was concluded that the most of professionals still don't feel themselves prepared to face violence, even having an early training and this can generate negligence.
