Abstract

Nutritional problems in toddlers, such as stunting and wasting, are a serious public health challenge in Indonesia, particularly in Jeneponto District. This study aimed to analyze the effect of nutrition counseling using the C ess Gammara method combined with banner and leaflet media on improving maternal knowledge, nutrient intake, and the nutritional status of toddlers, as measured by weight and height. This research employed a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design and involved 69 toddlers who had participated in counseling sessions at the Nutrition Clinic of RSUD Lanto Daeng Pasewang during 2024. The results showed significant improvements in all observed variables. Mothers' knowledge scores increased from 8 , 67 to 13 , 14; energy intake from 51 , 88% to 84 , 19%; protein from 49 , 94% to 84 , 88%; fat from 48 , 95% to 84 , 69%; carbohydrate intake from 52 , 82% to 86 , 16%; body weight from 8 , 57 kg to 9 , 66 kg; and height from 78 , 07 cm to 79 , 84 cm (p<0 , 05). These findings demonstrated that the CES Gammara approach, supported by educational media, was effective in improving maternal nutrition knowledge and the nutritional status of toddlers
