Background: The emergence of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has become the most important problem and challenge for the world health organization and the Indonesian government and throughout the world. Pregnancy services, namely Antenatal Care, are one of the services that are affected both in terms of access and quality. As health workers who are at the forefront in providing maternal and neonatal services, midwives cannot be separated from the risk of exposure to COVID-19 so that there is anxiety if they can get infected. Various government efforts in seeking medical personnel to get protection from contracting the COVID-19 virus, but anxiety cannot be avoided by someone. This study aims to describe the level of anxiety of midwives when providing Antenatal Care services during the COVID-19 pandemic. This type of research uses a quantitative descriptive design with 59 respondents, namely midwives using a random sampling technique. The analysis used is univariate. The results showed that most of the anxiety levels of midwives in Antenatal Care services were mild anxiety but there was also moderate to severe anxiety.
