About Motherly
At Motherly, we believe every parent deserves a safe, supported, and joyful journey into parenthood. Born from a personal experience of struggling to find the right care, we created Motherly to bridge the gap between families and trusted maternal support professionals.
Through our platform, parents can easily connect with doulas, lactation consultants, gynecologists, nannies, and postnatal care experts—all carefully vetted and trained to provide compassionate, reliable, and personalized support.
Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating the early days of motherhood, or seeking guidance for recovery, Motherly is here as your birth companion. Our mission is simple: to empower mothers with care, confidence, and peace of mind—every step of the way.
Our Story
From pregnancy to parenthood, Motherly is your trusted companion every step of the way.
When my wife and I found out we were expecting our first child, we were overjoyed but also overwhelmed. Both of us had demanding desk jobs that left little room for physical activity, and as we prepared for the birth of our baby, we knew we needed to take extra care to ensure a smooth delivery and a speedy recovery.
Having lived abroad, we were familiar with the concept of a doula— an expert who provides emotional, physical, and informational support to expectant parents. However, when we returned to India, we discovered that finding a doula here was not as straightforward as we had hoped. Despite the challenges, we were fortunate enough to connect with a highly skilled doula who made a profound difference in our journey.
Her support was invaluable; she guided us through the pregnancy, assisted us during labor, and provided crucial help with lactation and postnatal care. Thanks to her, my wife had a swift recovery, and we were able to enjoy our new baby without additional stress.
Our wonderful experience with the doula made us realize how vital this support system is for new parents, and it sparked an idea. We understood that many families in India could benefit from this kind of assistance but faced similar challenges in finding the right support on time.
That’s why we created Mothrly—an app designed to bridge the gap between soon-to-be parents and skilled doulas. Our goal is to simplify the process of finding and connecting with a doula, ensuring that every parent can access the essential support they need to have a positive and healthy birth experience. With Mothrly, we aim to make the journey of parenthood a bit easier and a lot more supported.
