I have a very 'Advanced' Question!

Does anyone know the education requirements to become a Neonatal Nurse? I think that's what I want to do. Stupid question, I know, but google has done me no good.

Yes. And I do know it varies from area to area but I just want a "basic" idea of what it requires.

You could probably find out how to go about it at School

I was thinking about that. I may ask the School Nurse or Guidance Counselor. Thanks

Probably. I'm not so good with all that stuff but I think you require 1-4 College years of studying nursing, and not so much 'Neonatal' Nursing. It's all indirectly but I think you can apply for a hospital after college. Then again I may be wrong!?

You'll need at least a bachelor's degree in nursing, not to mention specialized training.

Yeah I read about that too. 😬 All this high-educating stuff. I love wittle babies though 😄 and I love to help so I think this would be a good career. Now I just have to figure out a way.

I'm actually really trying my best. That load I said way earlier was a bunch of crock really. Yes there HAVE been days that I said "Screw it" but nowadays I'm more focused. I even kept my Grades in the C's and up Averages last semester so that's a start.

Thanks. Coincidentally before I even started thinking of Neonatal Nursing I signed up for next years classes and I have signed up for Anatomy/Physiology (one class), and Child Care 1 and 2.
And no, Male Nurse is not hard to believe, my Step-Uncle (Justin, who died's Step Dad) so I take no shame to that!
