Four years to become a BS/RN and an additional year for the pediatric specialty.

You must have a college degree as an RN (Registered Nurse) or an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) license before becoming a pediatric nurse.
There are various occupations that involve the care of infants. There are also different names for the same kinds of infant caregivers. Some are: * Pediatric or Neonatal Professional Nurses (RN, LPN, LVN) * Nannies * Au Pairs * Childcare providers at Childcare centers * Babysitters * Governesses (although they usually only teach older children) * Nursemaids * Childminder * Wetnurse
Yes you can. All RN programs include a pediatrics component.
There are no "start up fees" for becoming a pediatric nurse. You must be talking about the tuition that you need to spend in order to get the training. It can range fairly high with the fact that you need both the RN and the additional training courses.
The median expected salary for a typical Staff Nurse - RN - Pediatrics - Home Care in the United States is $55,496.
An RN has the opportunity to work in many different positions. Some jobs that are available for an RN are, nurse anesthetists, case manager, educator, and an analyst.
you can be an LPN (1-1.5yrs) RN (2yrs) BSN (4yrs) CRNP (2-3yrs after bsn). So I guess you have to be more specific in what kind of pediatric nursing you want to do? inpatient, outpatient, peds clin spec, peds floor nurse, school nurse, peds practitioner, etc.
To become a pediatric nurse, you typically need to complete a nursing program, which may require entrance exams such as the TEAS (Test of Essential Academic Skills) or HESI (Health Education Systems, Inc.) exam for admission into nursing schools. After completing your nursing degree, you must pass the NCLEX-RN (National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses) to become a licensed registered nurse. Additionally, some pediatric nursing positions may require certification in pediatrics, which can involve further exams.
The pay varies with the RN position and location. There is information at the related link.
