Every child has the right to live, grow, develop and participate reasonably, protected from violence and discrimination.
They are also entitled to health and social security services in accordance with physical, mental, spiritual and social needs,
as stated in Child Protection Law No. 23 of 2002. Toddlers are children aged 0-59 months, at this time characterized by a
very rapid process of growth and development, accompanied by changes that require more nutrients with high quality.
Monitoring of toddler growth should still be implemented through various alternative efforts to ensure toddlers are nutritionally
balanced for their developmental and growth needs. The purpose of this study was to find out the mother's behavior towards
balanced nutritional needs in toddlers. This study is deskrictive by using primary data and secondary data obtained through
interviews of respondents using questionnaires where the sample number is as many as 80 respondents. Data that has been
collected, processed by providing values and presented using distribution tables. Based on the results of this study showed
that, the majority of respondents are quite knowledgeable, namely as many as 25 respondents (40.32%), a well-rounded
minority of respondents, which is as many as 15 respondents (24.19%). The majority of respondents were negative, with 41
(66.13%), the minority being positive, with 21 respondents (33.87%). The majority did not take action, namely as many as 39
respondents (62.91%), and the minority who took action, namely as many as 23 respondents (37.09%). It is expected to the
