In preliminary studies, it was found that most children experienced delays in motor, cognitive, language, and socio-emotional. If the mother's knowledge of the first 1000 days of life is lacking, it will cause the growth and development of the child to be less than optimal. Objectives: To find out the relationship between the mother's knowledge about the importance of the first 1000 days of life with the child's growth and development. Method: Analytical research of correlation with cross sectional correlation approach.  A sample of 50 respondents from a total population of 100 respondents was taken by purposive sampling technique.
