Malnutrition is a health problem that is still often found in developing countries. Based on SSGI data for 2022, the prevalence of stunting in Semarang City reached 10.4%. The Sekaran Community Health Center area recorded 3.07% of stunted toddlers in 2022, while as of December 2022 there were 74 underweight toddlers and 40 wasted toddlers. The establishment of daycare is one of the efforts made by the Sekaran Community Health Center to overcome the problem of stunting. This community service aims to assist nutritional care for toddlers with stunting at the Sekar Kasih Daycare located in Patemon Village, with the implementation of community service activities taking place since the daycare was established on March 1 2023 - August 1 2023.
