You were made to do more than survive the fourth trimester.

Welcome to Core to Care's Postpartum 101 Workshops. We're here to guide you through the beautiful and challenging journey of new motherhood with expert knowledge and a supportive community. Discover how our occupational therapy-rooted approach can empower your recovery and help you build sustainable habits for a confident postpartum experience.

What you'll gain

Our Postpartum 101 Workshops are designed to offer more than just information. We provide practical tools, real clinical guidance, and a supportive community for new moms navigating the fourth trimester. Here’s what sets us apart:

Understand your recovery

Learn what the “fourth trimester” means for your body, mind, and daily life, and why occupational therapy is uniquely equipped to support it.

Build sustainable habits

Develop practical routines around sleep, nutrition, movement, and self-care that actually work for a new mom’s real life.

Feel less alone

Connect with other postpartum families navigating the same season, whether in person at the library or virtually.

Who our workshops are for

The Postpartum 101 Workshop Series are designed for new moms seeking real clinical guidance and a supportive community. If you're looking for practical, evidence-based strategies to navigate your recovery, you've found your place.

Perfect for you if:

∙   New moms in the fourth trimester — whether you’re 2 weeks or 6 months postpartum, it’s never too early or too late to get support

∙   Moms who feel like something is off but don’t know where to start — you’re not sick, but you’re not quite yourself either

∙   Families navigating postpartum without a strong support system nearby — the virtual series means you can show up from your couch, in your pajamas, baby in arms

∙   Moms who want real clinical guidance, not just generic advice — our workshops are rooted in occupational therapy, not opinions

∙   Partners and support people — understanding the fourth trimester helps everyone in the household show up better

∙   Moms considering a Core to Care package — the workshop series is a great way to experience our approach before committing to a full program

How you’ll feel after:

After completing the Postpartum 101 Workshop Series, you will feel:

∙   Seen — like your struggles are real, valid, and worth addressing

∙   Empowered — equipped with tools and knowledge to advocate for your own recovery

∙   Less overwhelmed — with a clear, structured understanding of what your body and mind are going through

∙   Connected — part of a community of moms who get it, not isolated in your experience

∙   Confident — in returning to movement, routines, and daily life at your own pace

∙   Hopeful — knowing that thriving postpartum is possible, not just surviving

You will know:

∙   What the fourth trimester actually means and why it matters clinically

∙   How sleep deprivation and stress impact your functional recovery — and what to do about it

∙   How to nourish your body for healing, not just convenience

∙   How to return to movement safely without risking your recovery

∙   How to build a self-care practice that is realistic for a new mom

∙   Who is in your village — and how to ask for what you actually need
