BACKGROUND: Stunting is at high risk of occurring in the first two years of a child's life (0-24 months), and will be difficult to overcome if it continues until the child is more than 2 years old. An important determinant of complementary feeding to prevent stunting is the ability of caregivers/parents to provide food, including knowledge, attitudes and practices of feeding.
AIM: This study investigates the effectiveness of booklet and daily eating guide card in improving mothers’ feeding practice regarding responsive feeding.
METHODS: This study is an experimental research and development study (R&D) with pre-posttest design. Samples were selected using a purposive sampling technique and random sample technique.
RESULTS: Results showed differences in the level of knowledge, attitudes and practices of respondents between before and after being given education (Sig. (2-tailed): 0.000<0.05). It can be concluded that Booklet and daily eating guide card are proven to be effective in improving feeding practice of mothers of stunted toddlers.
CONCLUSION: These media can be used in education to improve knowledge, attitudes and practice of responsive feeding among mothers.
