The Stunting is still a major problem in child health in East Kalimantan Province. Various prevention and
management efforts have been carried out through specific and sensitive interventions. Even so, the
complex determinants of stunting risk still require further analysis, especially regarding parenting
practices in families with under two years of age children. This was an observational study with a casecontrol design. The sample in this study were mothers who had under-two years of age children who lived
in the selected stunting locus, in North Penajam Paser, East Kutai, and Kutai Kartanegara Regencies. Data
were obtained from 88 children (cases) and 171 children (controls). Health care pattern data were analyzed
by Mann Whitney test and child’s feeding pattern was analyzed by the Chi-square test. This study showed
that there was a difference in the scores for health care (p-value <0.01) and child feeding pattern (pvalue=0.02) between families of under-two years of age children who are not stunted and those who are
stunted.
