You become a pediatric registered nurse in Florida by earning an Associate Degree in Nursing or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, passing the NCLEX-RN exam, and obtaining an active license from the Florida Board of Nursing.

After licensure, most pediatric roles require clinical experience in a pediatric or neonatal setting.
