Labor and Delivery CNA Skills, Education, and Certifications

Interested in learning how to become a CNA with an L&D focus? Requirements for aspiring CNAs differ by state, and this specialty may require additional certifications pertaining to various roles in the L&D unit. Not all hospitals and birthing centers employ nurse assistants, however, and in those that do, jobs in labor and delivery likely are highly sought after.

Aspiring CNAs must have a high school degree or a GED, in addition to completion of a state-approved nurse assistant training program. These programs are typically offered by community colleges and online institutions. Then, you’ll need to pass the CNA certification exam (which, depending on your state, may include skill demonstrations) to become eligible for work in this field. While not required for L&D CNA jobs, consider obtaining any of the following certifications:

Certified Breastfeeding Counselor
Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC)
Pediatric Emergency Assessment, Recognition, and Stabilization (PEARS) certification
Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) certification

If you’re looking into CNA labor and delivery jobs in particular, then you’ll want to consider the temperament and soft skills required for the role (take a look at the requirements of becoming a labor and delivery nurse for guidance). Nursing professionals working in L&D units must be compassionate, personable, and have strong interpersonal communication skills.

Resume and Cover Letter for Labor and Delivery CNAs

Make sure your CNA resume and cover letter are current and written in a way that highlights how your relevant skills, experience, and interests make you an ideal candidate for the L&D unit. Since nursing professionals working in labor and delivery are among the happiest, it should come as no surprise that jobs for nursing assistants in this speciality are particularly competitive. Make sure your cover letter conveys your genuine interest in L&D.

Interviewing for CNA Labor and Delivery Jobs

Having the right temperament is important for any healthcare position, but it is especially critical for L&D CNAs. You may want to review common questions asked during CNA job interviews, such as why you want to work as a CNA and how you handle difficult or tense situations, but also prepare to answer questions more specific to this specialty. Take a look at frequently asked labor and delivery nurse interview questions to help you get ready for your interview.

Salary and Compensation for Nursing Assistant Jobs in Labor and Delivery

The national average pay for CNAs is $42,700 annually, but actual pay will vary by state, how much experience you have, education, and even by type of facility. These states have some of the highest salaries for nursing assistants:
