The sample size calculated was 30 respondents. The sample size of 30 toddlers aged 1-12 months was divided into 15 toddlers who were given treatment and 15 toddlers who were not given treatment. The results showed that the percentage of toddlers with underweight in the intervention group decreased from a mean of 6513.33 to 6706.67 while in the control group it only decreased from a mean of 6500.00 to 6586.67. Overall, the weight status of toddlers in the intervention group changed significantly (p <0.000).
