The critical study participants were 3 parents and source triangulation consisting of 2 teachers and 1 manajer who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criterion at Jungle School. Determination of test subjects by way of quantitative sampling. Data processing methods involve the elimination, display, conclusion, and verification of data. The findings revealed that the three parents had guidance for administering nutrition programs, including preparation, delivery, and assessment procedures. Parental assistance at the preparation level involves consultations with teachers and administrators on assessing age-specific food consumption, dietary patterns, and children's history of allergies. In the implementation process, parental encouragement involves children's involvement in feeding together, monitoring body weight and height, and consuming vitamins periodically organized by the boss. During the assessment, parents have given guidance to school officials, including the need for a diet and wellness-related parenting programs involving qualified professionals or collaborators and the local Community Health Center's role in the supervision of children's nutrition and health.
