Abstract

To ensure future generations' success, improving young children's cognitive well-being is vital. This study analyses the complicated relationship between evidence-based midwifery practices, environmental factors, and 24-36-month-olds' cognitive well-being. Studies have shown that air pollution and chemical exposure can harm a child's brain.A cross-sectional study examined midwifery practices and environmental quality in Banjarbaru City. The sample included 80 mothers and children. Midwifery practices were assessed using an evidence-based scale, and environmental quality was assessed using an index. The findings show that midwifery practices like exclusive breastfeeding and supplemental nutrition promote children's cognitive development. Additionally, brain health scores are greater in clean environments with less air pollution, sanitation, and chemical exposure.This study emphasises the role of midwives in promoting brain health through evidence-based methods and promotes a holistic approach to child care. The study helps design targeted interventions and strategies to improve future generations' cognitive health.
