Sampling was conducted by purposive sampling method and was conducted based on inclusion and exclusion criterias.Results: The total samples obtained in this study were 124 samples. This study showed that the characteristics of toddlers with ARI among others the most frequent age is 24-35 months (30,6%), most of them were male (61,3%) and weren’t exclusively breastfed (69,4%). Futhermore, this study also found that there was a correlation between exclusivity of breastfeeding and the incidence of ARI in toddlers (p<0,05).
