Chanda Bryant

Hi, I’m Chanda, the founder of Crown + Cradle Doula Co., LLC a faith-rooted practice devoted to nurturing parents through the sacred journey of birth and beyond.

​

I am a healthcare administration professional, birth and postpartum doula, nanny, and a doctoral student researching maternal and infant health.  Additionally, I am also a member of the FIMR Case Review Team (CRT) and the Dallas County-Community Action for Birth Equity Coalition (CAN BE). My calling into birth work began long before degrees, certifications, committees, and credentials, it started with a deep desire to serve, uplift, and honor families during life’s most transformative moments.

​

My care is grounded in evidence-based support, BIPOC cultural sensitivity, and spiritual presence. Whether I'm offering calming presence at a birth, providing attentive nanny care, preparing nourishing meals, or walking alongside you in postpartum recovery, I show up with compassion, reverence, and heart.

​​

I'm also a certified placenta encapsulator, certified lactation educator, and have years of teaching experience as a ESL teacher! 

​

When I’m not supporting families, you’ll find me spending time with my own, crocheting, volunteering at my local gym working with children, mentoring aspiring healthcare administrators and birth workers, or researching ways to help close the maternal health equity gap.

​

Crown + Cradle is more than a company to me, it’s a ministry of presence, advocacy, and grace.
