Activities That Can Be Done at Posyandu
At the Posyandu Balita activities, several activities are carried out, such as weighing body weight, measuring height, and measuring head circumference in toddlers and children.
1. Family Planning Program (KB)
Posyandu is an ideal place to obtain information about family planning programs. Moms can consult with experts about safe and suitable contraceptive methods for the family's needs. This program helps Moms make wise decisions regarding the desired number of children, allowing the family to provide adequate attention and affection to each family member.

This program helps moms understand their children's health needs, enabling them to grow and develop optimally.
3. Child Health Program
Posyandu organizes special health programs for children. Moms can bring their children for regular check-ups, vaccinations, and initial treatment if the child experiences health issues. By participating in this program, Moms can ensure that their children are protected from diseases that can be prevented through immunization and proper healthcare.
4. Nutrition Monitoring
Adequate and balanced nutrition is very important for children's growth. At Posyandu, there is a nutrition monitoring program that helps Moms understand their children's nutritional needs.
