Abstract

During providing services Posyandu Lestari I and Ringinsari I only include anthropometric measurements in infants and toddlers, complementary breastfeeding, immunization, administration of Vitamin A and Deworming (February and August), while counseling services for mothers and toddlers of babies at the tables of four posyandu have not been implemented.  Counseling at Posyandu will only be carried out when there are health workers who visit, which is usually only in February and August every year. The purpose of this community service is to improve the services provided by the posyandu, one of which is to reactivate the fourth table. The service at the fourth table is the  service provided by the cadre in the form of counseling for infant and toddler mothers The method used in education on improving posyandu services is training on the use of posyandu backsheets to assist cadres in providing counseling at the fourth table of the posyandu.  The result obtained from this Community Service is that there are differences in providing counseling before and after getting education on the use of backsheets for counseling at the desks of the four posyandu. Counseling services at the fourth table can increase the satisfaction of mothers of babies and toddlers in receiving services at posyandu.
