Upcoming & Ongoing

Birth Unpacked

Registration Closed | Check back for future dates!

Birth Unpacked is an evidence-informed birth education class designed to help you approach labor, birth, and the early postpartum period with knowledge, confidence, and practical skills.

Led by pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Alexandra Quick, PT, DPT and family medicine doctor Dr. Elizabeth Shields, MD, this class combines the science of childbirth with hands-on strategies to help you prepare both your body and mind for birth.

Together, we'll explore the physiology of labor, comfort measures, movement and positioning, partner support, informed decision-making, pain management options, pushing strategies, and early postpartum recovery. Throughout the course, you'll learn how to support your body's natural processes while understanding the role of medical interventions when they become necessary.

Unlike traditional childbirth classes that focus on memorizing stages of labor, Birth Unpacked emphasizes understanding why birth unfolds the way it does. You'll leave with practical tools you can use during pregnancy, labor, and early postpartum, along with the confidence to make informed decisions that align with your goals and values.

Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, an epidural, or simply want to feel more prepared for whatever your birth journey brings, this class is designed to help you feel informed, supported, and empowered.

Birth Unpacked is more than a childbirth class—it's an opportunity to learn, ask questions, connect with other growing families, and prepare for one of life's biggest transitions with the guidance of trusted healthcare professionals.
