The objective of this community service activity is to enhance the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of postpartum mothers regarding breastfeeding their infants. The methods employed included lectures and question-and-answer sessions with mothers. This activity took place in the Postnatal Care Room of Padjonga Daeng Ngalle Hospital, Takalar Regency, on March 20, 2024, with the participation of six postpartum mothers. The results of education and support provided to postpartum mothers on exclusive breastfeeding using leaflets and flip charts showed that prior to the intervention, only 2 mothers (33.33%) had good knowledge, and after the education and support, this number increased to 5 mothers (83.33%) in the post-intervention test.
