Abstract

Toddler age is often called the golden period because during this period brain nerve development occurs, especially myelination, as well as a critical period. The golden period can be achieved if toddlers' nutritional needs are optimally met. On the other hand, if babies and toddlers do not get the food they need, the golden period will change into a critical period, thus disrupting their growth and development. The level of education of parents will affect the health and well-being of children, because this is inseparable from the nutritional status of children. Mothers with a high level of education will have a clearer opportunity to absorb information compared to mothers with less or no education. With a good level of education, it is hoped that a mother will be willing and able to behave well in order to improve her child's nutritional status. This Community Service activity aims to provide health education on balanced nutrition to reduce stunting in the community, especially mothers with toddlers in Desa Cangguk, Kecamatan Tanah Pasir, Kabupaten Aceh Utara. This activity used a participatory approach involving lecturers, students, health workers, and the community. The results showed an increase in public understanding and awareness of stunting prevention. It is hoped that this activity will raise public awareness about balanced nutrition for children

Abstract

The nutritional status of toddlers is an important indicator that reflects the level of public health in a region. This study aims to analyze the nutritional status of children aged 0–5 years in Teupin Desa Teupin Gapeuh Kecamatan Tanah Pasir Kabupaten Aceh Utara. This research employed a descriptive quantitative method using secondary data obtained from health records and posyandu (integrated health post) reports. The study involved a total of 60 children under five, consisting of 33 boys and 27 girls. The findings revealed that based on the weight-for-age (W/A) index, 81.7% of children had normal nutritional status, 13.3% were undernourished, and 3.3% were severely undernourished. Based on height-for-age (H/A), 90.0% were normal, 5.0% were short, and 3.3% were very short. According to the weight-for-height (W/H) index, 83.3% were normal, 11.7% were undernourished, and 5.0% were at risk of overweight. Furthermore, the prevalence of stunting, wasting, and underweight were 8.3%, 11.7%, and 16.7% respectively. These results indicate that although most children have normal nutritional status, some still experience nutritional deficiencies that require special attention. Therefore, health workers and local governments need to strengthen nutrition education programs, increase community awareness of balanced nutrition, and improve monitoring of child growth to prevent malnutrition in the area

Abstract

Anemia among pregnant women remains a major public health problem, increasing the risk of pregnancy and childbirth complications, low birth weight, preterm birth, and maternal and neonatal mortality. Low health literacy regarding adequate nutrition, iron and folic acid supplementation (IFAS), and anemia prevention contributes to its high prevalence. This community service program aimed to improve pregnant women's health literacy through nutrition education and anemia prevention. Activities included interactive health education, group discussions, demonstrations on selecting iron-rich foods, educational leaflet distribution, and pre-test and post-test evaluations. Conducted at a community health center (Puskesmas), the program involved 30 pregnant women. Participants' mean knowledge score increased from 64.2 to 88.6 after the intervention. They also demonstrated better understanding of regular IFAS consumption, iron-rich food selection, and anemia prevention during pregnancy. Active participation reflected the effectiveness of the educational approach. This program is expected to encourage healthier anemia prevention behaviors, support healthy pregnancies, and contribute to reducing stunting risk during the First 1,000 Days of Life
