UNISA Yogyakarta Students Support Toddler Health Posts in Notoprajan

Students from the Community Service Program (KKN) Group 71 of ‘Aisyiyah University (UNISA) Yogyakarta provided tangible support for routine Posyandu Balita activities in RW 01 Notoprajan. Held at the former Ngabean Elementary School, this activity on Friday (August 15, 2025) was a form of collaboration between students, health cadres, and the community to improve children’s health.

The presence of UNISA Yogyakarta KKN students not only assisted in service delivery but also played a crucial role in enhancing parental knowledge. Local health workers conducted data collection and anthropometric measurements, such as height, weight, and head circumference, as indicators of infant nutritional status.

Nida Agustiani, a member of the UNISA Yogyakarta KKN group 71, explained that they were actively involved in providing vitamin A, conducting dental health checks, and organizing nutrition education sessions.

“The counseling material focused on the appropriate texture of complementary foods (MP-ASI) according to age. To ensure continuous education, the community also received practical modules on supplementary feeding (PMT) that can be applied at home,” said Nida.

This activity was enthusiastically welcomed by parents. They received health services and new knowledge that was very useful. This collaboration reflects positive synergy in efforts to create a healthier and smarter generation. With this support, the Notoprajan RW 01 Toddler Health Center is expected to strengthen its preventive and promotional functions in a sustainable manner.
