Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
(Group 1: Mothers Receiving Individual Face-to-Face Education)
After identifying the mothers to whom the education will be provided, they will be contacted by phone using their contact information and informed about the study. Mothers who agree to participate will be invited to the Family Health Center (FHC). Before the education, the Data Collection Form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered.
The first session of individual face-to-face education will then be conducted using previously prepared educational content. An educational brochure related to the content of the training will be given to the mothers. After the education session, the data collection form, vaccine attitudes scale, and vaccine hesitancy scale will be administered again.
The second education session will be conducted two weeks later. In this session, the previously provided information will be reviewed and reinforced, and the mothers' questions will be answered. Following the session, the data collection form, vaccine attitudes scale, and vaccine hesitancy scale will be re-administered.
Experimental Group 2
(Group 2: Mothers Receiving Group Education)
After identifying the mothers to whom the education will be provided, they will be contacted by phone and informed about the study. Mothers who agree to participate will be invited to the FHC to attend group education sessions scheduled at appropriate dates and times. Before the education, the Data Collection Form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered.
The first session of the group education will be conducted using previously prepared educational content. An educational brochure related to the content of the training will be given to the mothers. After the education session, the data collection form, vaccine attitudes scale, and vaccine hesitancy scale will be administered again.
The second education session will be conducted two weeks later. In this session, the previously provided information will be reviewed and reinforced, and the mothers' questions will be answered. Following the session, the data collection form, vaccine attitudes scale, and vaccine hesitancy scale will be re-administered.
Control Group
(Group 3: Mothers Receiving Routine Education)
After identifying the mothers who will receive routine education at the FHC, they will be contacted by phone and informed about the study. The mothers will be invited to the FHC, where the Data Collection Form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered prior to the education.
Subsequently, the routine education provided by the FHC will be delivered, and an educational brochure will also be given to the mothers in the control group. After the education, the data collection form, vaccine attitudes scale, and vaccine hesitancy scale will be administered again.
Two weeks later, the mothers will be invited to the FHC again, the routine education will be repeated, and after the education, the data collection form, vaccine attitudes scale, and vaccine hesitancy scale will be re-administered.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Group 1: Mothers receiving individual face-to-face education
After identifying eligible mothers, they will be contacted by phone and informed about the study. Mothers who agree to participate will be invited to the Family Health Center (FHC). Before the training, the Data Collection Form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered.
The first session of individual face-to-face education will be conducted using pre-prepared training content. An educational brochure related to the training content will be provided. After the session, the same forms and scales will be re-administered.
Two weeks later, a second individual training session will be conducted to review and reinforce the previous education, and mothers' questions will be answered. Following the session, the data collection form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered again.
Vaccination attitude
This study was planned to determine the effect of face-to-face and group education given to mothers regarding childhood vaccinations on their attitudes and decisions about vaccination. It is thought that the education provided will help eliminate mothers' misconceptions and false beliefs about vaccines in the short term and contribute to positive changes in their attitudes and decisions regarding vaccination. Moreover, it is anticipated that, in the long term, this intervention will contribute to achieving better immunization rates and protecting children from vaccine-preventable diseases. This study is also important in terms of emphasizing the midwife's role in protecting and improving infant and community health.
Group 2: Mothers receiving group education
After identifying eligible mothers, they will be contacted by phone and informed about the study. Mothers who agree to participate will be invited to the Family Health Center (FHC) on scheduled dates for group training sessions. Before the training, the Data Collection Form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered.
The first group education session will be conducted using pre-prepared training content, and an educational brochure will be provided. After the session, the same forms and scales will be re-administered.
Two weeks later, a second group education session will be conducted to review and reinforce the previous education, and participants' questions will be answered. After the session, the data collection form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered again.

Group 3: Control group (receiving the routine unit-based information)
After identifying mothers who will receive routine informational training at the Family Health Center (FHC), they will be contacted by phone and informed about the study. Mothers who agree to participate will be invited to the FHC. Before the routine training, the Data Collection Form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered.
Routine training provided by the FHC will then be conducted. After the training, the same data collection form and scales will be re-administered.
Two weeks later, participants will be invited again to receive routine training once more, and following the training, the Data Collection Form, Vaccine Attitudes Scale, and Vaccine Hesitancy Scale will be administered again.
