daughterly
Of a girl-child
Daughterly describes behavior, feelings, or qualities befitting a daughter—affectionate, dutiful, or devoted in the way daughters traditionally relate to parents: She showed daughterly concern for her aging mother.
The word parallels motherly, fatherly, and sisterly but sees less use.
