Methodology: The study has adopted a Quantitative approach (True-experimental research design, Pre-test post-test control group research design). 60 samples who fulfills the criteria, selected using simple probability random sampling technique knowledge and practice of the mothers. Major findings and results: The findings show that effectiveness of structured teaching programme on level of knowledge which indicate the difference in pre and post-test level of knowledge scores. In this study the mean post score on the level of knowledge among experimental group was 12.66 respectively. The obtained paired “t” value was = 12.36 respectively which was significant at P = < 0.001 level. This finding reveals that level of knowledge gradually increases in experimental group. This finding shows STP is highly effective in improving the level of knowledge hence research H1 hypothesis is accepted.
