Empowering Birth. Ending Preventable Loss.
Every birth tells a story, and at Doulio, those stories add up to measurable impact and lives saved.
Through our network of skilled doulas and partner organizations, we’re tackling one of the most preventable crises in America: maternal mortality. By ensuring every mother has access to continuous, culturally-competent support, we’re reducing complications, improving outcomes, and creating safer birth experiences across the country.
Our approach blends compassionate, community-based care with data-driven maternal health insights. The result: lower cesarean rates, higher breastfeeding initiation, and nearly universal skin-to-skin contact.
Each number represents a life protected, a family supported, and a system moving closer to true equity in maternal health.

Our Commitment to Impact
At Doulio, impact isn’t just a metric, it’s our mission in motion.
We believe in the curb cut effect: when we design systems that center the most vulnerable, everyone benefits. By focusing on those most at risk in the birthing community, we create pathways that elevate care standards for all families.
Even within one of the most advanced nations, the reality is clear, those giving birth in the U.S. often face worse outcomes than parents in less resourced countries. That inequity fuels our work.
Our approach to equity in maternal health begins with listening, learning, and building solutions that remove barriers to quality care. Every program, partnership, and product we develop is guided by one truth: when we uplift those most impacted, we transform outcomes for everyone.
Our Programs
Doulio’s programs are designed to meet families where they are — whether that’s in hospitals, homes, or rural towns across the country. Through deep partnerships and data-backed training, we empower doulas to serve diverse communities and address the root causes of maternal health inequities.
From tackling the maternal health crisis head-on, to supporting birthing mothers in recovery, to training doulas in rural and underserved areas, every initiative reflects our belief that care should be personal, accessible, and powered by both compassion and technology.
