Conclusions: the level of knowledge in caregivers about nutrition was low in 27.3%, medium in 37% and 35.7% high. In cultural characteristics, in the eating pattern dimension; 55.7% is adequate, 32.9% average and 11.4% inadequate, in the dimension of socioeconomic factors 55.7%, with adequate cultural characteristics, 37.1% average and 7.1% inadequate.
