In an exciting news for maternal health in the Middle East, MotherBeing has launched Daleela, the first Arabic-language maternal wellness platform. This innovative service aims to provide expectant and new mothers with much-needed support, guidance, and resources throughout their pregnancy and postpartum journey.
Daleela, which means “guide” in Arabic, is a fitting name for this groundbreaking platform. By offering a wealth of information and support in the native language of its target audience, Daleela seeks to bridge the significant gap in maternal health education in the Middle East.
The platform provides expectant and new mothers with access to a wide range of resources, including:
- Articles on pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care
- Videos featuring expert advice from healthcare professionals
- Community forums where mothers can connect and share experiences
- Personalized support from certified maternal health coaches
One of the key strengths of Daleela is its focus on addressing the unique challenges faced by mothers in the Middle East. From cultural stigmas surrounding mental health to limited access to quality healthcare, Middle Eastern mothers often struggle to find the support they need during this transformative time in their lives.
By providing a safe, confidential space for mothers to access information and connect with others who understand their experiences, Daleela aims to break down these barriers and empower women to prioritize their own health and well-being.
The launch of Daleela comes at a critical time, as the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the urgent need for accessible, remote maternal health services. With many women unable to attend in-person prenatal appointments or access their usual support networks, digital platforms like Daleela have become a lifeline for expectant and new mothers.
Research has shown that access to quality maternal health support can have a significant impact on both mother and baby. Women who receive adequate prenatal care are less likely to experience complications during pregnancy and childbirth, while those who have access to postpartum support are at lower risk for developing postpartum depression and other mental health issues.
The development of Daleela was a collaborative effort, bringing together experts in maternal health, technology, and cultural competency. The platform was created in partnership with healthcare professionals, including OB-GYNs, midwives, and mental health specialists, to ensure that all content is accurate, up-to-date, and relevant to the needs of Middle Eastern mothers.
MotherBeing also worked closely with local organizations and community leaders to better understand the unique challenges and cultural considerations that impact maternal health in the region. This collaborative approach has resulted in a platform that is not only informative but also culturally sensitive and responsive to the needs of its users.
MotherBeing plans to expand the reach and impact of Daleela by partnering with healthcare providers, insurers, and employers across the region. By integrating the platform into existing healthcare systems and workplace wellness programs, the company aims to make maternal health support more accessible and affordable for all women in the Middle East.
