The handling of stunting at the village level so far cannot be said to be effective due to the absence of prevention centers by healthcare professionals. The objective is to develop the role of the village midwife as a central role for stunting prevention with a clear flow of tasks and responsibilities. The implication of this research will be to emphasize a more structured stunting prevention system. This research used a case study method with a descriptive design. The instrument used for data acquisition was a semi-structured question list through in-depth interviews, supported by document reviews from reputable journals for the last five years (2016-2021). The target of the interview was a village midwife in Trenggalek, East Java. The data analysis was PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Output). There were 7 themes from the interviews and 8 reputable journals as supporting data for the PICO selection. The analysis concluded that developing the role of midwives in dealing with stunting, required management reform (SOP), increased collaboration between professions and sectors, family economy, and availability of funds. It was recommended that village midwives are the most appropriate health professionals at village-level stunting prevention centers who report to the BKKBN institution.
