<![CDATA[Emergency situations due to choking in infants represent a significant health issue that requires prompt and appropriate intervention, particularly within early childhood education settings. In Panjunan Village, the community at Muslimat Kindergarten has expressed a need for basic information and training on first aid for choking cases in infants. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of counseling on emergency assistance for choking infants directed at parents and educators at Muslimat Kindergarten in Panjunan Village. The methodology employed is a community service approach (PkM), which involves direct counseling conducted over one month in 2025. The proposing team, consisting of experts and students, performed simulations and demonstrations of first aid techniques and provided educational materials through posters and YouTube videos. Data regarding participants' knowledge were collected through pre-tests and post-tests to measure improvements in understanding. Evaluation results indicated a significant increase in participants' knowledge regarding the procedures for handling choking infants. The use of posters and YouTube videos effectively reinforced participants' understanding both visually and practically. In conclusion, the counseling on emergency assistance for choking infants proved effective in enhancing awareness and initial response capabilities in emergency situations. This program can serve as a model for replicating similar counseling initiatives in other regions.]]>
