The population in this study were all children aged 3-5 years who were in the Work Area of ​​the Tarus Health Center as many as 419 toddlers. The research sample amounted to 100 people. The sampling technique in this study using the proportional stratification random sampling technique is a sampling process by dividing the population into strata, selecting random samples from each stratum, and combining them to estimate population parameters. A Chi-Square test was performed to analyze the data. The findings showed that the type of food (p = 0.000), energy adequacy (p = 0.034), and protein adequacy (p = 0.011) were all related to the nutritional status of children under five. While the frequency of unhealthy eating is not related to nutritional status (p = 0.090), it is recommended that health workers carry out more nutrition-aware family counseling, especially to parents whose toddlers have low, less, or more nutritional status, so that nutritional status can be managed effectively
