Breast milk remains the best nutrition that can protect babies and toddlers from various diseases, including during the COVID-19 outbreak. Changes in breastfeeding patterns during the COVID-19 pandemic need to be understood by breastfeeding mothers, both those suspected of being infected with COVID-19 and mothers who choose not to breastfeed directly. Objective: The aim of this research is to review literature, articles, and research documents regarding providing exclusive breast milk to babies during the pandemic COVID-19. Method: The method used in writing this article is a review of research results related to providing exclusive breast milk to babies during the pandemic COVID-19. The type of data used is secondary data. The data sources in this literature review study were obtained by searching scientific research articles from 2021 to 2022 using data bases such as Google Scholar and Science Direct. Result: Mothers knowledge regarding providing exclusive breast milk to babies during the pandemic COVID-19 shows that there are still many who do not know the procedures for giving breast milk.
