Abstract: One of the most appropriate efforts to maintain the growth of infants aged 0-6 months is exclusive breastfeeding. Exclusive breastfeeding has a close relationship with the nutritional status of infants. Breast milk is considered the only food that babies need in the first 6 months of life. One of the recommended stimulation and stimulation is baby massage, because it is easy to learn and economical. One of the basic mechanisms of baby massage is an increase in the activity of the Nervus Vagus so that food absorption becomes better and the baby gets hungry quickly. Breast milk will be produced more and more the more it is requested. The result of community service activities is an increase in the skills of baby mothers in performing baby massage to their babies. This is supported by the results of filling out a knowledge questionnaire related to the steps of baby massage before and after training, namely before training 5 people (50%) had sufficient knowledge about baby massage and after training 6 people (60%) had good knowledge about baby massage.
