The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members.

The Startling Truth
The United States has the highest maternal mortality rate of any country in the developed world. Delighted to Doula aims to reduce these deaths by providing free or low-cost postpartum support and education in underserved communities.
Our Commitment
We pledge to serve expectant mothers of the greater Dallas community as they recover from childbirth and begin to care for their newborns. We are committed to supporting, nurturing, and educating these mothers during that critical one-year period after giving birth.
We're Here To Help
Our postpartum doulas will help to soothe overwhelmed new mothers, teach them about potentially dangerous—and sometimes overlooked—postpartum symptoms, and even care for the baby while she gets some rest. Each of our postpartum doulas is a compassionate “mother to the mother.”
