Summary/Abstract: One of the ambitions of any civilized society is to ensure a healthy start in life for children. To this end, kindergartens create a healthy environment for children's development and contribute to this start. Educators' knowledge of current health models, but also of the models of the parents of children in kindergarten, contributes to appropriate choices for children in terms of developing food awareness, healthy behavior, and creating appropriate health models. The study was conducted in three kindergartens and involved 24 educators and 89 parents. After applying the two questionnaires to highlight the starting points (on various health issues), a long-term intervention was developed for both categories of respondents. The results obtained highlight the importance of interventions at the kindergarten level.
