Latar Belakang: Malnutrisi masih menjadi masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang signifikan secara global dan nasional, khususnya pada kelompok ibu dan balita. Tingginya prevalensi stunting dan masalah gizi lainnya menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan gizi ibu memiliki peran penting dalam pencegahan malnutrisi. Edukasi gizi merupakan salah satu upaya promotif yang efektif untuk meningkatkan pemahaman ibu tentang kebutuhan gizi balita. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh edukasi kesehatan melalui media leaflet terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi balita. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kuantitatif dengan pendekatan quasi-experimental melalui rancangan one group pretest–posttest. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Puskesmas Uteun Pulo Kabupaten Nagan Raya pada tanggal 20 Desember 2025. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 30 ibu yang memiliki balita usia 1–5 tahun, yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Data pengetahuan ibu dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner sebelum dan sesudah pemberian edukasi gizi menggunakan media leaflet. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan bivariat menggunakan uji Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya peningkatan rata-rata skor pengetahuan ibu dari 12,13 pada pretest menjadi 14,87 pada posttest. Uji Wilcoxon menunjukkan nilai p = 0,000 (p < 0,05), yang menandakan adanya pengaruh signifikan edukasi gizi melalui media leaflet terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi. Kesimpulan dan Saran: Edukasi kesehatan melalui media leaflet terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan pengetahuan ibu tentang gizi balita. Oleh karena itu, media leaflet disarankan untuk digunakan secara berkelanjutan sebagai salah satu strategi promosi kesehatan di puskesmas guna mendukung pencegahan masalah gizi pada balita.
