Objective: assessing the content and semantic validity of a survey on grandmothers’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices in the context of breastfeeding. Methods: methodological research for content validation of a Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices (KAP) survey by experts and semantic analysis through the comprehensibility of the items by grandmothers of breastfeeding children. Content validity indices were calculated for the items and the scale, as well as the binomial test. Absolute and relative frequencies of understanding of the items were calculated for the semantic analysis. Results: participants were 22 experts and ten grandmothers. The content validity index of the KAP survey for both the pre-test and post-test versions was 0.94. One question in the pre-test version and two questions in the post-test version did not reach > 90% comprehension. One question was excluded from the survey and 21 were reworded, resulting in 45 items distributed into three domains: knowledge (23 items), attitudes (8 items), and practices (14 items). Conclusion: the final pre- and post-test versions of the survey of grandmothers’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices on breastfeeding achieved content and semantic validity compatible with its use.
