Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive in children under five years of age (toddlers) due to chronic malnutrition and recurrent infections. Children are classified as stunted if their length or height is below minus two standard deviations of the size or height of children their age. Stunting handling must synergize between ministries/institutions, regional governments, and the business world/community. This study aims to help cadres and parents monitor the growth and development of typical toddlers in general and stunted toddlers in particular by using the BERAKSI Application. The method used in compiling this application is "Waterfall," a sequential software development process starting from planning, modeling, implementation (construction), and testing. The stages in developing the waterfall method are requirements (needs analysis), system design, coding and testing, program implementation, and maintenance. The results of the application compilation research, namely BERAKSI, display four menu features, including 1) Growth, 2) Development, 3) Balanced Nutrition, and 3) Parenting. The advantage of the BERAKSI Program application compared to similar applications is that it has updates in the form of interventions providing balanced nutrition for toddlers who experience stunting and malnutrition with menus that have been consulted and recommended by nutritionists, as well as having a parenting menu that has been consulted and advised by child psychologists. Field data input into the BERAKSI application can be saved and downloaded on Google Spreadsheet. The BERAKSI application can be downloaded without paying via Playstore using an Android-based mobile device connected to the internet network.
