Samples were taken using a total population technique of 25 respondents. The research instrument used the HARS (Hamilton et al.), which consists of 14 items. This research has passed ethical test no. 067/STIKES PN/KEPK/V/2023. Before the intervention, respondents filled out personal and anxiety data questionnaires. Then, respondents were given a notebook to write down what they felt every day, and their anxiety level was measured again. The research results showed that the average level of maternal anxiety decreased by (7.56%) before the intervention (27.00) and after the intervention (19.44), p-value 0.000 < 0.05. So, H0 was rejected, which means that the daily journal is effective in reducing the anxiety level of mothers who have hemophilic children at HMHI Riau. The research results showed that the majority of respondents had the same anxiety both before and after the intervention, namely feeling afraid about their thoughts about their children; they are worried that their child will experience injury or bleeding during their daily activities.
