Our Story

Who We Are

Whittaker's Wings Foundation was lovingly established after founders Ryan and Crystal Zeeman, devastatingly lost their daughter Whittaker, at 40+1 weeks gestation in July 2021.

Our Mission

Our foremost mission is to provide compassionate, immediate, practical assistance and guidance to families navigating the heart-wrenching loss of a baby between 20 weeks gestation and term birth.

We strive to illuminate and champion family-led after-death care practices for stillborn infants, offering support and encouragement during this profoundly difficult journey.

Our Vision

We are dedicated to advocating for enhanced stillbirth support and training within tertiary and hospital settings, while also fostering greater awareness and understanding of miscarriage, stillbirth, and bereavement care among the general populace.

Our Impact

Care Packs

Our care packs provide essential items, emotional support, and resources to bereaved parents, offering comfort during their most difficult time.

Education

We offer guidance and heart-led education to hospitals and tertiary education providers on after-death care options, helping health care workers confidently provide support to bereaved families.
