Are you looking to gain a deeper understanding of who you are and how you operate in the world? Are you tired of being put into a box by traditional personality tests? This class is designed for you!
In this class, we will explore the nine Enneagram types and delve into what makes them each unique. You’ll learn how to break out of traditional personality test limitations and discover more about yourself in a personal and authentic way.
Jess McGrail, Bundle Birth Nurse Mentor and professional Enneagram Coach, explains and helps you discover which of the 9 types you are dominant in so that you can improve your self-awareness and build more fulfilling relationships. You’ll learn each type’s core desire, fear, what motivates them and how you can best support those around you that resemble each type.
Join us as we unveil the Enneagram to help you deepen your understanding of your true self.

We’re excited to support you with this 8-hour, on-demand recording for your entire group. This training will provide information necessary to promote physiologic birth and/or interact with various labor patterns/interruptions through non-pharmacological nursing interventions.
We promote birth as a normal, physiologic process for the majority of birthing people, but recognize that there are common interruptions in the birth process that can have an impact on the ultimate mode of delivery. Upon successful completion of the workshop, the participant will be able to educate, triage, and better facilitate physiologic birth to meet the desires of the laboring person and accomplish a vaginal birth.
Please download the guides presented here to supplement your experience.
At the end of the class, a QR Code will be displayed on the screen for your audience to scan (also provided in your facilitator guide), take their evaluation and submit for CEs.
Everyone attending needs to fill out a class evaluation in order to receive their CEs.

FOUNDATIONS
We put our hearts and souls into this course for you. Understanding your why and building your mission statement will build a solid foundation for a lasting career. Setting a solid foundation will help you on hard days. It will help you during a demise. It will help you when your patient ends up in the OR. It will help you when you feel like you have an unfair assignment. It will help you care for a patient with different beliefs. It will help you when working with difficult coworkers. It will help you see what really matters.
This course will cover topics such as ethics, advocacy, patient rights, nurse’s rights, the essence of nursing, HIPAA and more. We know, the stuff you learn in nursing school, but our hope is that this is a fresh take on each topic, that you can actually apply what you learn in this class and that it helps continue to grow your roots deep. It IS important and we know you’ll especially see why after this class.
At the end of this course, it is expected that the student can:
- Explain what human dignity, self-determination and advocacy are and how they pertain to our field of nursing
- Develop personal goals for continued professional development, self-care, and lifelong learning.
- Practice safe, evidence-based and ethical care
*4.5 CEs from the California BRN will be awarded upon completion of this class. Class access expires 2 yrs from purchase.
We carry so much responsibility most days, and educating our patients can seem like a very daunting and impossible task to fit in at times. In this class, our goal is to give you practical tools to educate your patient and their support team effectively. You may be thinking; I don’t have all the time to do this! Especially when you are new, you can barely keep up with all the tasks and charting… but we find repeatedly that the better, the more clearly you provide education to your patients, the easier your job is in the long run.
When we discussed building rapport, trust, advocating and giving them the right to self-determination in your Foundations class; patient education is the gateway to achieving all those things for your care. You get there quicker and easier when you provide this education. The goal would be for the patient to completely understand what’s happening with their body/health and that they get to participate in that process! Think of patient education as preventive medicine. Sarah will go over topics like education versus informed consent, how to talk through EFM, how to explain pushing and inductions, and more! You will learn all of Sarah’s tips and by the end of this class, you will have tons of scripts you can incorporate into your practice.
At the end of this course it is expected that the student can:
- Explain the nurses role in patient education
- Develop a plan to implement 2 teaching tools at the bedside
- Summarize the three components of patient education
- Formulate a plan to assess, teach and verify
*7 CEs from the California BRN will be awarded upon completion of this class. Class access expires 2 yrs from purchase.

Or perhaps you’re caught in the internal struggle of resorting to pharmacological interventions too soon because you lack alternative strategies? Imagine having the expertise to guide your patients through labor with confidence, equipping them with effective coping mechanisms even when you step out of the room.
Introducing our transformative 5-hour course tailored to elevate your ability to support laboring patients, whether with or without epidurals. Through a dynamic blend of engaging lectures and hands-on hospital simulations, you’ll unlock the secrets of breath control, intuitive responses, optimal positions, soothing touch techniques, and the crucial art of adjusting mood and offering encouragement. Led by the seasoned expert Sarah Lavonne, you’ll not only master a strategic approach but also gain profound insights into the underlying principles driving effective labor support.
But wait, there’s more! Enrolling in this course gives you a preview into one month of the Bundle Birth Nurse Mentorship program, where you can delve deeper into refining your skills. Plus, each participant receives an exclusive 38-page workbook designed to enhance your learning journey.

We are POSITIVE that this is the class you’re most excited about for all of mentorship 😆JK! BUT surprise! It might actually be the most important! We encourage you to stick with this one as this will help you not only protect yourself, your license but also your patient’s birth experiences.
In this class, you will learn from different perspectives/experts to explain to us what shared decision-making and informed consent actually are, what it looks like in practice and what we are responsible for. Shared decision-making is the goal, and we believe that our role is right in the middle of that process, facilitating the needs of both the provider and patient. This is no easy task. We believe in you and believe you will do what’s right when it comes to shared decision-making. Baby steps. We are up against culture and system that doesn’t always do this perfectly, and that’s ok! You are accountable to yourself and your patients. Do your best! Utilize your resources, and speak up for what is right. Your influence in this process MATTERS, and you are not alone.
At the end of this course it is expected that the student can:
Objectives:
1) The student can describe their role and responsibility in the informed consent process.
2) The student can differentiate between verbal, written and implied consent.
3) The student can recognize the difference between informed consent and shared decision-making.

We know that this is a module that many of you have been looking forward to – it’s your 101 entry into building your expertise in physiologic birth. In this class, we are going to teach you how to set the body up for labor progress, as well as what actually happens in the body during labor, so that you can recognize when it’s “working” vs. disrupted.
As nurses we have power and influence over the birth room – we can negotiate more time with the doctor, and make a suggestion that can help move closer to a vaginal birth or get in the way. We are “experts” at birth; let’s then be experts at the anatomy and physiology of birth because when you understand what is and should happen, you can better anticipate, plan for and adjust to help achieve a vaginal birth. Knowing that position changes, in general, are our weapon in fighting the c-section. We have to keep them moving – so let’s understand what we’re doing and why it may help. We hope you are as inspired by this content as we are and that you walk away from this module feeling challenged, encouraged, and excited to go to work and help these birthing families bring life into the world.
At the end of this course it is expected that the student can:
- Summarize what physiologic birth is and what can disrupt it.
- Distinguish different parts and levels of the female pelvis and how the fetus moves through it.
- Create a care plan for a fetus that is asynclitic and occiput posterior.
*4.5 CEs from the California BRN will be awarded upon completion of this class. Class access expires two years from purchase.

We know birth matters
Those of us who support birth know that the experiences of our births stay with us and have a lasting impact. How we feel about our birth begins the story of our parenting. With the COVID-19 pandemic, birth has become an even more complex experience within the system.
As a birth professional…
Do you see your clients and patients develop trauma from their births? Do you feel overwhelmed or just need some clarity about it? Do you fear that you will see an increase in trauma with the recent developments and feel powerless?
While over 30% of those giving birth describe the experience as traumatic, up to 8% will go on to develop PTSD as a result of the experience. It’s my opinion that these numbers will increase over the coming months. As birth professionals, we will undoubtedly attend traumatic births (virtually or in-person) and yet we are given little if any information about best practices for preventing trauma to our clients. What are we supposed to do here?
Can we do anything?
Description
In this class, we will discuss:
- What is birth trauma?
- Who is most at risk for PTSD after birth?
- What are the signs of birth trauma?
- What can we do in the birth room (virtually or in-person) to minimize psychological trauma to our clients?
This class will emphasize therapeutic skills that can be adapted to the real world by an experienced licensed trauma therapist and certified doula who has been there.
Perfect for doulas, nurses, midwives and OBs
Goal
After this class, you will have a deeper understanding of the subject of birth trauma as well as five immediately applicable new skills for the birth room with your clients and patients. You will leave the class (finally!) equipped to grapple with this timely and important topic.
Learning Objectives:
- Define birth trauma and understand who is most at risk.
- Understand the most common reasons why birth trauma occurs.
- Learn ways that we can prevent or protect against birth trauma at the very next birth we support.
- Discuss specific strategies we can use to help our clients or patients prevent or lessen birth trauma symptoms they already have.
Course includes 14 lessons and a 20 pg workbook.
* 2.75 CEs from the California BRN are given for this course. Class expires two years from the purchase date.

Fetal monitoring takes up a big portion of our shifts, our brain space, and our stress! Whether your patient is on continuous fetal monitoring or intermittent, it is time-consuming and a lot to manage. We wanted to create a class that helped it all make sense, clarify your questions and give you a foundation or work from your foundation to continue to feel more and more confident in your FM interpretation and nursing interventions. We want you to walk away from this course feeling confident that you know what you are talking about, what you are charting, and how to keep your patients safe, all the while supporting their preferences and dignity.
We also wanted you to have a solid understanding of the legal implications of FM, how to protect yourself, what common pitfalls go to court and overall release you from some stress related to your fetal monitoring interpretation. You will learn from Pam Hetrick again as she goes over some real case studies that she has encountered as an expert nurse witness.
At the end of this course it is expected that the student can:
- Student will identify and label fetal heart rate characteristics
- Student can create a care plan for fetal resuscitation
- Student can describe the pathophysiology of decelerations.
*5 CEs will be awarded upon completion of this class. Class access expires 2 yrs from purchase.
The reality is, that we spend the majority of our time as nurses caring for the birthing person intrapartum and the fetus, not the newborn! The more we thought about it, though, the more we realized that if this process was going to be as thorough as possible, we had to include this topic. Whew! Everyone is scared of that floppy baby. We have, at bear minimum, heard awful stories of babies coming out blue, apneic, needing to run a full code, or having to give blood immediately. It does happen. The good news is, it’s NOT going to happen on every shift. The other good news is that you WILL have to use these skills at some point in your career, which is exactly why we included it! We want you to walk away from this module feeling like you know what is happening to your baby pathophysiology-wise so that you can identify what is normal from what is abnormal, respond appropriately and notify the right people for help. Remembering that you may be the link between this baby getting the help they need, preventing further complications and even death.
You got this.
At the end of this course it is expected that the student can:
- Student describes the pathology of the extrauterine steps newborns take upon delivery.
- Student compares the different respiratory issues a newborn can have after delivery.
- Student can demonstrate the steps to resuscitation.
*4 CEs from the California BRN will be awarded upon completion of this class. Class access expires 2 yrs from purchase.
Birth professionals pour their heart and soul out for families. We see it all – many times beautiful, healing birth memories, and other times, we are left not knowing how to cope or what to do with the trauma we have experienced, witnessed or inadvertently participated in.
Whether you’re a L&D nurse, doctor, midwife, tech, doula or other birthing professional, we want to help you heal after a “bad birth”. We want you to have the tools to live a lasting, fulfilling career, and be able to continue to do what you love from a place of health and love.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand and describe PTSD as a central nervous system phenomenon
- Assess and identify trauma symptoms in themselves and colleagues
- Name at least 3 systemic solutions to the problem of professional trauma
- Prevent professional trauma with at least 3 specific strategies
- Implement a personal acute trauma self-treatment plan
This class is our support and love to you. You can do this, and now you have the tools to do so.
