Introduction: anemia is one of the most frequent pathologies worldwide; Due to the great negative and irreversible impact on the neural development of children, it affects learning and scores on tests of intellectual and motor development in children. Objective: To determine the factors associated with the presence of anemia in children under 3 years of age treated at the P.S. Masusa - Punchana, 2020. Material and methods: The study was quantitative, with a descriptive, cross- sectional and correlational design; the sample consisted of 50 children from 0 to 36 months of age. Two instruments were used: the questionnaire and the data collection sheet, which were validated. Results: Their main results were: Of the 100% of children with anemia, 73.3% have mild anemia, 18.3% moderate anemia and 8.3% severe anemia and are between 12 and 36 months old (88.3%) (p = 0.011), according to their mother, 71.7% have an age of 18 to 35 years, 70.0% have a secondary education level, 75.0% are housewives, 45.0% have 1 child and 56.7% have a monthly income less than or equal to 300 soles. Likewise, all mothers during pregnancy had mild, moderate and severe anemia; anemia mostly occurs in children who received EBF up to 3 months and 4 to 5 months of age (p = 0.006); sometimes they consumed foods of animal origin rich in iron (p = 0.000), 65% did not take micronutrients in their diet (p = 0.019), and 23.3% (p = 0.046) were not dewormed. Conclusions: It is concluded that the factors associated with sociodemographic, maternal and protective characteristics such as age of the child, age of the mother, anemia of the mother during pregnancy, feeding with SCI, frequency of consumption of foods rich in iron, not consumption of micronutrients and not deworming are associated with anemia in children under 3 years of age
