The most significant percentage figures are shown in children aged 0-2 years, then the age group 3-6 years and 16-18 years. Transmission occurs due to direct patient contact, especially in adults who transmit it to children. It needs the role of parents, in this case, mothers, to be a pioneer for families to prevent COVID-19 in children. This service aims to increase the mother's knowledge about COVID-19 disease in children and prevent COVID-19 illness in children. Devotional methods are lectures, Q&A, and demonstrations. To find out the increase in expertise using pre-test knowledge test and post-test.
