Thanks for stopping by this blog!  This is not a new website by any means, but after a series of moves since 2017, it feels a like a good time to make a fresh start on this website!  If you are looking for the blog archives, there are many previous posts that you can find by clicking here.

To reintroduce myself, I am Criston White, a mother of FOUR kids (here with me).  I began my birth doula studies and started Bundle of Love Birth Services in southeast Saskatchewan in 2014, when my 2nd child was almost 1 year old.  I finished my birth doula studies, began taking clients, and became certified through Childbirth International in 2015.  Since then I have taken rebozo training, and started my breastfeeding counselor studies, but the studies for that have been stopped and started a few times due my last 2 children being born and due to various moves we have made!  Bundle of Love Birth Services operated in the Saskatoon area beginning in 2017 after my maternity leave with my 3rd child, while we made our home in various communities near the city for a few years. 

However, most recently (as of August 2020), my husband's work brought us to northwest Saskatchewan, just outside Loon Lake.  We are settling well in this area, and enjoying our beautiful surroundings as we get to know our new community.  I am just wrapping up my maternity leave after my 4th child was born a year ago as well. 

During my maternity leave, COVID-19 reached Saskatchewan, and this pandemic has made many changes to how service businesses including birth doulas and breastfeeding counselors operate, but the good news is that not much has changed for this business!  I have always been open to supporting clients in whatever ways work best for them - be it through digital/virtual support or in person support!  I have always been flexible in offering customized support packages, and while COVID-19 has changed a lot in our society, I believe women and their families should not have to sacrifice their desire for support in this time because there is a pandemic going on while their babies are on the way - I am committed to finding ways to support women in safe, comfortable, and helpful ways despite the chaos that sometimes surrounds us!

Please consider this the official Bundle of Love Birth Services announcement that as of August 2020, I am NOW supporting birth doula clients planning their births for Meadow Lake, Lloydminster, or North Battleford, Saskatchewan. I am also supporting breastfeeding clients in Meadow Lake and the surrounding area.  While I am not yet certified as a breastfeeding counselor, I am happy to help however I can while I continue my studies!

My birth doula work started out of my passion to support other women during their pregnancies and births and early postpartum time, and I also developed a passion to support and help women who are learning to breastfeed and who may be experiencing specific challenges.  I am excited to be able to now bring this support to women and their families in northwest Saskatchewan!

    “I do not care what kind of birth you have…a homebirth, a scheduled caesarean, epidural hospital birth, or if you birth alone in the woods next to baby deer. 
    I care that you had options, that you were supported in your choices, and that you were respected.”
