The importance of advances in technology is recognized. However, it can impair the child's development when misused. The principal objective of this research is to analyze the use of technologies and their impact on the child's development. The specific ones, to identify which are the means used by children and the intensity of use of the most common technologies, analyze how those responsible control the use and examine the benefits and harms that technologies bring to children's lives. The study was carried out in the Basic Health Units of São Paulo City, where the person responsible for accompanying the child is interviewed. We opted for content analysis, thematic modality. Data analysis allowed us to identify three themes: A) The access to technology: most-watched content; B) The use of technology interfering with the child's development and C) Monitoring the use of technologies.
