Baby massage is a form of early stimulation that is beneficial for improving the physical and emotional health of infants, while strengthening the bond between mother and child. However, infant massage skills in the community are still limited, and most mothers rely solely on baby spa services without understanding safe and correct massage techniques. This community service activity aims to improve mothers' knowledge and skills in performing infant massage while fostering the entrepreneurial spirit of midwifery students through complementary midwifery service practices. The activity method uses a participatory action learning approach involving 20 participants, mothers with infants aged 6–12 months in the Pandaan Community Health Center (Puskesmas) working area. The activity was carried out through preparation, education, demonstration of infant massage practices, and evaluation. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in participants' skills in performing infant massage according to procedures and an interest in developing infant massage services as a home-based business opportunity. Midwifery students also gained real-world experience in implementing health service-based entrepreneurship. This program has proven effective in improving maternal health literacy and supporting the development of innovative and sustainable midwifery entrepreneurship.
