Our Mission
At Daughters of Daisy Marie Doula Services, our mission is to provide unwavering support, guidance, and advocacy for women during the sacred and transformative experience of childbirth. We believe we can change our narratives one birth at a time by helping create new, beautiful birth legacies for mothers and families.

We dedicate ourselves to ensuring that every woman feels heard, respected, and empowered as they navigate the intricate tapestry of pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. Through culturally sensitive care, education, and personalized support, we strive to make each birthing experience a source of strength, resilience, and joy for the women we serve.
At Daughters of Daisy Marie, we stand firmly by the belief that every woman deserves a doula and should feel empowered, supported, and deeply connected to her cultural roots.
