Abstract

The health of children under five years of age is an important factor for the survival of future generations, so it is important to assess the nutritional status of toddlers on an ongoing basis to determine the nutritional status of toddlers. This study aims to describe the nutritional status of toddlers aged 0-59 months in the working area of ??the Bandarharjo Community Health Center, Semarang City. The research method used is descriptive and chi-square correlation test analysis. This research sample consisted of 360 toddlers who were selected using purposive sampling techniques. Nutritional status is measured by measuring body weight and height, then classified using body mass index (BMI) according to WHO standards.

The research results show that the prevalence of nutritional status of children under five in the Bandarharjo area varies significantly. A total of 61.7% of toddlers aged 2 - 5 years, 59.7% were male, 73.3% had normal nutritional status (TB/U), 75.8% had normal nutritional status (WW/U), 74, 4% normal nutritional status (WW/TB), 93.1% good nutritional status (LILA), and 85.3% normal nutritional status (head circumference). And there is a significant relationship between baby age, baby gender, parents' occupation and religion on nutritional status (p<0.001) based on TB/U, BB/U, BB/TB and Lila. Conclusion: baby's age, baby's gender, parents' occupation, and religion have a significant relationship with the nutritional status of toddlers based on TB/U, BB/U, BB/TB and Lila indicators. Considering the importance of regular nutritional monitoring, it is recommended that health service facilities continue to carry out regular evaluations of the nutritional status of toddlers to detect and prevent nutritional problems as early as possible.
