Abstract

Toddlers are one of the most at-risk populations exposed to various health problems (illness and death). According to WHO, toddler mortality rate (TMR) is as high as 35 for every 1000 live births in 2012. Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS), 2012. TMR in Indonesia is as high as 32 per 10,000 live births (Indonesian Health Ministry, 2015a). In North Sulawesi province, the TMR is as high as 35 per 1,000 live births. (Health Profile of North Sulawesi Province, 2010). Based on 2013 Primary Health Research, the most cause of infant mortality is due to neonatal respiratory problems (35.9%), prematurity (32.4%), sepsis (12%), hypothermia (6.3%), blood disorder /jaundice (5.6%), post-maturity (2.8%) and congenital abnormalities (1.8%) (Indonesian Health Ministry, 2015b). One of the strategy to accelerate the reduction of TMR is by increasing community access to a better health services at both basic and referral levels, to mobilize and encourage the empowerment of women, families and communities for healthy living, to mobilize the use of maternal and child health guidance books, to improve surveillance systems, monitoring and information on child health.
