Dear Sathish,
There is no minimum or maximum distance provided in the Act or Rules for Creche. Although nursing breaks for 15 minutes each are given under the act. It is upto the management to provide crèche nearest to the working place of employees so as to save the transition time. Do not mix the nursing breaks with the interval for rest, it is separate like lunch break and all.
Hope your query is answered.
