Abstract: Kawasaki Disease (KD) is an acute febrile disease which attack children under 5 years old with unknown causes. Very few literature has been published related to the experiences of caring children with KD in Indonesia. A holistic understanding about KD is necessary to improve nursing care of children with KD. The purpose of this study was to explore mothers' experience in caring for children in the acute phase of KD. This descriptive phenomenology study used in-depth interviews to explore Indonesian mothers’ experiences. Fifteen participants were selected through convenience sampling in Jabodetabek area. The transcripts were analyzed using Colaizzi’s method. The study revealed five main themes: The nature of a mother: Struggling for the safety of children; when mothers' love conquer fatigue; sustainable family support; freak out of the high-priced and scarcely treatment; and challenges to access health services. These findings trigger the government to support Indonesian mothers for t he treatment of their children in acute phase of KD, with caring attitudes as well as social, emotional, and financial supports.
