<p><em>Premature infants are at high risk for developmental disorders, including low body weight and poor sleep quality. Intensive care in the NICU often focuses on medical approaches, but non – medical intervensions such as infant massage, kangaroo mother care (KMC), and nesting techniques have been shown to be effective improving weight gain and sleep quality in premature infants. This study is a literature review study of 20 experimental articles published in 2019-2025, which were obtained from the PubMed and Google Scholar databases with specific inclusion criteria. The results show that infant massage therapy can stimulate the vagus nerve system, thereby accelerating metabolism and increasing infant appetite. Kangoroo care support weight gain and sleep quality by providing warmth from skin to skin. Nesting techniques, by positioning the baby’s body in a stable and comfortable position, can significantly improve infant sleep quality. Nursing intervetions such as infant massage, KMC, and nesting are effective and simple approaches to improving weight gain and sleep quality in premature infants during NICU care. </em></p>
