<![CDATA[Introduction: Child nutrition issues remain a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, particularly stunting. Stunting is a condition in which children experience growth failure due to malnutrition, leading to long-term health issues and cognitive development problems. The current prevalence of stunting in Indonesia remains high, still exceeding the national target. This study aimed to describe family-based child nutrition services and family-related factors supporting stunting prevention among families with children under five years. Methods: This study employed a quantitative descriptive design. The study was conducted among 100 families with children aged 12–59 months in the working area of Karang Pule Community Health Center. Respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire to assess knowledge, attitudes, family support, the role of health workers, and family-based child nutrition services. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and presented as frequencies and percentages. Results: The findings showed that 60% of respondents had good knowledge, 70% had positive attitudes, 65% reported strong family support, and 55% perceived a good role of health workers. Family-based nutrition services were rated as good by 58% of respondents . Conclusions: Knowledge, attitudes, family support, and the role of health workers contribute to the successful implementation of family-based child nutrition services. Strengthening family participation and improving nutrition education may enhance efforts to prevent stunting among children under five years of age ]]>
