The most likely result is Daisy wouldn't develop deep emotional attachment with her mother.
Deep emotional attachment between parents and infant developed due to the Perception that infants have for her mother.
If the parent spent a lot of time taking care of her infant, the infant will perceive the mother as a guardian that always take care of her and someone who could make the infant feel safe.
If, the infant spent the majority of his/her childhood at they care, the emotional attachment that the infants have with the daycare teacher could be deeper than the attachment that they have to thier mother.
