Upcoming Events.
At Birthing the Magic Collaborative, we curate culturally grounded perinatal education designed for Black birthing people and those who support them. Our workshops bring together trusted experts, lived experiences, and evidence-based knowledge to separate fact from fiction and provide information that is both credible and compassionate.
We believe that Black motherhood is a birthright, not a battle. Our sessions are safe, affirming spaces where Black women and families can learn, connect, and leave empowered with tools for healthier pregnancies, births, and postpartum experiences.
Workshops are open to expecting parents, new parents, grandparents, doulas, nurses, community members—anyone who is committed to supporting safe and joyful birth outcomes for Black families.

4Kira4Dads: Fatherhood and Advocacy for Safer Births
Join our partner, 4Kira4Moms, for a meaningful conversation about their new fatherhood initiative, 4Kira4Dads, and the profound impact fathers can have during pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
Together, we’ll explore how fathers can show up with presence, respect, and intention to support mamas through one of life’s most powerful experiences. We’ll talk about how fathers can take part in the wonder of birth, build strong early bonds with their babies, and contribute to healthier outcomes for the whole family.
This conversation will also highlight tangible ways fathers and partners can be engaged, from learning key risk factors and warning signs to helping monitor blood pressure, asking thoughtful questions, attending appointments, and understanding when to speak up or seek support.
Through 4Kira4Dads, fathers are invited to see themselves as essential members of the birth team, helping ensure that mamas feel seen, heard, and supported every step of the way.
