Introduction: Stunting is a chronic malnutrition problem caused by lack of nutritional intake for a long time, resulting in growth disorders in children, namely the child's height is shorter than the standard age. Mother's self-efficacy in offering MP-ASI is a mother's self-confidence in carrying out the feeding process which includes the quantity and quality of MP-ASI, safety in providing food and the responsive feeding.
