Method: A quantitative design with a quasi-experimental approach type one group pre-test post-test design. The research sample consisted of 30 respondents selected from 85 heads of families in RT 03 Nyunyai Village. Data was collected using a validated questionnaire. Data analysis included univariate analysis, normality test with Kolmogorov-Smirnov, and bivariate analysis with t-test. Results: A significant increase in knowledge and skills after being given health education interventions. The average score of knowledge and skills increased from 11.60 on the pre-test to 15.47 on the post-test. The results of the t-test proved a significant influence with a p-value of 0.000 (< 0.05).
