The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge, practices on the use of multimicronutrients, feeding habits and socioeconomic level with the nutritional status of the children from 6 to 35 months were cared in growth and development office at Indiana´s health centre 2016-2017. Indiana is located on the Amazon river, 32 km away from the city of Iquitos. It had a transverse type quantitative approach, with a sample of 103 individuals. Instruments were applied to collect information about knowledge and practices of multimicronutrients usage, socioeconomic level and feeding habits. The research found that nutritional status according to the height and age indicator, 31.1% (32 children) presented normal height for their age, 34.0% (35 children), presented short stature for their age, 32.0 % (33 children) presented Risk of short stature and 2.9% (3 children) presented severe short stature respectively. In the hemoglobin level, 32.0% (33 children) had a normal hemoglobin level, 37.9% (39 children) had mild anemia and 30.1% (31 children) had moderate anemia, there was no children with severe anemia. On the level of Knowledge Level: 50.5% (52 mothers) had an adequate level of knowledge and 49.5% (51 mothers) presented inadequate level of knowledge respectively. With respect to the practical use of multimicronutrients, 85.4% (88 mothers) presented incorrect practices and mothers with correct practices represent 14.6% (15 mothers) proportionally. Finally, a highly significant statistical relationship was found between the level of knowledge, practices, socioeconomic level, and feeding habits with the hemoglobin levels presented by children who were cared in growth and development office ar Indiana´s health center 2016-2017.
