About Our Collective Practice
History and founding principle
Established in 2020 by Katya Daily, the Madam Doula Collective has grown out of the desire to continue providing families with a solo doula's individualized care and attention, as well as an agency's expanded services and safety net. We believe each family deserves the birth and postpartum experience of their dreams, and having the right team behind that dream makes it happen. And so it is our mission to support parents across the DMV with our growing experience, expertise, and care while building a supportive team culture. Every family needs a birth and postpartum team to support them through the wonderful experience of bringing life into the world.
​
Every single one of our team members is an outstanding professional, compassionate caretaker, and continuous learner ready to support you when you need it the most!
​
I am looking forward to hearing more about how we can support you! I am always happy to share about us and how we can make your birth and postpartum experience positive and empowering.

Our Partners & Resources
We know it takes a village to navigate pregnancy, birth, postpartum, motherhood, and fatherhood, so we constantly build our referral list and connections with other birth-adjacent professionals. This page was created as a complementary community resource for anyone who needs vetted resources added to "their village." As our roots in this work grow, so does this page!

Testimonials
What Our Clients Say
"Katya was so helpful after the birth of my second child. She was so sweet and caring with my newborn and was always ready to research and offer advice. I am so thankful that I found her-- I don't know how else we would have survived the first 6 weeks of adjusting to our new family dynamic!"
Leah from Washington, D.C.
"Mary was a lifesaver during our labor and delivery. She was incredibly supportive of our birth plan and helped to keep a positive perspective when that plan needed to change. Not only was she a major support for me, but her presence was very beneficial to my husband as well. I would highly recommend her and her services."
"I had a home birth recently and had the pleasure of having Katya as my doula! She was such a lovely support to have, and followed through with our birth intension with understanding and kindness - would definitely recommend her if you are in the Northern Virginia/Washington, DC area."
