본 연구의 목적은 영유아교사의 급식 운영 실태와 급식 지도를 분석하는 것이다. 연구대상은 G광역시의 유치원과 어린이집에 근무하는 171명의 영유아교사이다. 연구도구는 유아교육현장의 급식 운영 실태와 급식 지도를 측정하는 질문지를 사용하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 18.0 통계 프로그램을 사용하여 빈도분석, 기술통계, $x^2$, F검증, Duncan 사후 검증을 실시한 결과 첫째, 교사의 근무기관 유형에 따라 급식 시간 운영과 급식 제공 분량, 급식 배분형태에서 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 또한, 교사가 담당하는 학급 원아의 연령에 따라 급식 시간 운영과 급식 제공 분량, 급식 배분 형태, 늦게 먹는 유아의 지도 유형에서 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 영유아교사는 급식 지도 내용 중에서 '식사 후 내용', '식사 전 내용', '식사 중 내용' 순으로 강조한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 교사의 근무기관에 따라 '식사 후 내용'에서 차이가 있었고, 교사가 담당하는 학급 원아의 연령에 따라서는 '식사 전 내용'과 '식사 중 내용'에서 유의미한 차이가 있었다. 이것으로 보아 교사의 근무기관 유형과 담당학급 원아의 연령은 급식 운영 실태에 영향을 주는 요인이었으며, 유아교사가 영아교사보다 대체적으로 급식지도를 잘하고 있음을 시사하는 바이다.
