National data shows that 36.8% of children under five are stunted and 16% of children under five have growth problems. The Ministry of Health has created a stimulation program for early intervention and detection on the growth and development of infants under five which is coordinated with families, communities, health workers to deal with it. The preliminary study showed that 2.2% of children under five were stunted and malnourished in 2019 in Telagasari Village, Karawang Regency and children aged 2 years and 3 years were not able to walk. The dominance of infant growth monitoring services at posyandu (Integrated Health Service for infant) is part of the problem that needs to be addressed. Based on the description of the problem, it is necessary to have community service in the form of screening for infant development through baby massage services. Community service activities was implemented through counseling program. While adhering to health protocols, the service activity carried out in the village community hall was attended by 20 participants focusing on the socialization and counseling on baby development screening as well as how to do baby massage. Monitoring services and baby massage assistance were carried out by home visit once a week for 4 weeks and by the third week all four participating mothers were able to massage their babies. Average growth of infants before intervention was 8.45 and after intervention was 9.6. As this service activity offers some benefits for participants and mothers, therefore it is necessary to develop community service in other villages.
