Background: Very little research has been done on factors associated with knowledge level in hydration in parents and caregivers of children 4 to 6 years of age, especially in developing countries. Objectives: To identify factors associated with knowledge level in hydration in parents of children between 4 and 6 years of age in Metropolitan Lima. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was performed in which a validated survey was conducted after a non-probabilistic snowball sample of 81 parents in Metropolitan Lima. Results: Associations were only found between knowledge level in hydration and factors such as educational level (higher level vs. no higher level: PR unadjusted=1.79; 95% CI: 1.07 to 2.98; p=0.026 and PRa=2.06; 95% CI: 1.25-3.38; p=0,004) and sex (male vs. female: PR unadjusted=0.66; 95% CI: 0.37 to 1.19; p=0,167 and PRa=0.57; 95% CI: 0.34-0.94; p=0,027). Second, regarding knowledge level in hydration, 61.3% of parents and/or caregivers had regular to good knowledge versus 38.3% who had low knowledge. Conclusion: An association was found between knowledge level in hydration with educational level and sex; however, it is recommended to repeat the study overcoming the limitations.
