Careers in the nursing profession seem to always be in high demand. There are many different specialties a nurse can choose, one of which is neonatal nursing. Neonatal nursing is caring for a specific age group, specifically new born babies up to about 28 days old. This can be a very rewarding, and very stressful, position in which to work. There are actually three different paths within the neonatal specialty. They include working with healthy newborns, caring for ill or premature babies, and working in specialty care such as the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU.) The majority of nurses (60%) work in hospitals, with most of the remainder working in a physician’s office, healthcare center, nursing home, school, or other facility. There are some nurses who travel either between different facilities or to patients homes as well. When it comes to neonatal nurses, however, an overwhelming majority work in hospitals. Becoming a nurse requires education and a licensing process. The minimum amount of education required is a diploma from an accredited nursing program, though this limits a candidates opportunity within the field. Most nurses obtain either an Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN,) though some go on to get a masters degree (MSN) to open up opportunity in more specialized areas of nursing. The licensing process is different in each state, although all states require that the candidate pass the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN) and graduate from an approved program in order to obtain the license. In addition to these education and license requirements, many positions require specific certification. As a neonatal nurse, an employer may require a Neonatal Resuscitation Provider, Neonatal Intensive Care Nursing or Neonatal Nurse Practitioner certification. Many employers will also require that a nurse have demonstrated general clinical experience before they work as a neonatal nurse. A Registered Nurse (RN) starting out with can expect a starting salary of about $38,000, while a new neonatal nurse can expect about $49,000. The average salary for a neonatal nurse is about $80,000.
