Dear Editor of Placentum: Jurnal Ilmiah Kesehatan dan Aplikasinya,

I would like to submit our manuscript entitled “Mothers' Needs in Managing Stunting among Toddlers: A Qualitative Study in Surakarta City” for consideration in your esteemed journal.

This study explores the comprehensive needs of mothers in managing stunting among toddlers, focusing on strategies, access to affordable nutritious resources, and community support. The topic is highly relevant to maternal and child health and aligns well with the journal's scope in public health and clinical applications.

We believe that the findings provide significant contributions for policymakers and health practitioners to design interventions aimed at reducing stunting prevalence, particularly in urban settings. The qualitative approach used in this study offers in-depth insights that can serve as a reference for future programs and research.

We have ensured that the manuscript adheres to the journal's author guidelines and that it is an original work not under consideration elsewhere. We kindly request your consideration for publication.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Sincerely,
Ika Sumiyarsi Sukamto
