Although the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia has decreased, it remains high according to WHO criteria. Stunting has the potential to reduce productivity in adulthood and increase the risk of degenerative diseases. The causes of stunting are complex and varied. This study aims to determine the relationship between maternal education level, nutritional intake, and family parenting on the incidence of stunting in children under five in the working area of Puskesmas Hiang, Kerinci Regency. This research used a quantitative method with a cross-sectional design. Data collection was conducted from March to May 2024. The study population consisted of 837 children under five, with a sample of 94 children selected using proportional random sampling. The independent variables in this study included “maternal education level, nutritional intake, and family parenting,” while the dependent variable was “stunting.” Data analysis was conducted using the Chi-Square test. The prevalence of stunting in children under five reached 23.4%.
