Pediatric Registered Nurse Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a pediatric registered nurse in New York?

To become a pediatric registered nurse in New York, you must first earn a nursing degree and pass the NCLEX-RN, then obtain licensure through the New York State Education Department's Office of the Professions. After receiving your New York RN license, you can apply to pediatric units directly or pursue a new-graduate residency program. Many nurses further specialize by earning a Certified Pediatric Nurse credential through the Pediatric Nursing Certification Board.

How much do pediatric registered nurses make in New York?

Pediatric registered nurses in New York earn a median of about $109,440 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $79,760 for the lowest 10% to over $157,090 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire pediatric registered nurses in New York?

Employers hiring pediatric registered nurses in New York right now include Christian Nursing Registry, Accucare Nursing, and Caring Angels Home Care, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. New York's concentration of large academic medical centers and dedicated children's hospitals means demand remains steady throughout the year across the state.

Which New York cities have the most pediatric registered nurse jobs?

The cities with the most pediatric registered nurse openings in New York are Rochester, Brooklyn, and Bronx. New York City drives the bulk of demand given its density of major academic medical centers and specialty children's facilities, while Buffalo and Albany reflect strong regional health systems that anchor pediatric care across upstate communities.

Are there remote pediatric registered nurse jobs in New York?

Yes, but they're rare. Pediatric nursing is a hands-on clinical role and the overwhelming majority of positions require in-person patient care. About 0% of pediatric registered nurse openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those tend to involve telehealth triage, care coordination, or case management functions rather than direct bedside care.

How can I get hired as a pediatric registered nurse in New York with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying to a formal new-graduate residency program, which major New York employers such as Northwell Health, NewYork-Presbyterian, and NYC Health + Hospitals run specifically for RNs without specialized pediatric experience. These structured programs rotate new nurses through pediatric units over several months. Nurses transitioning from adjacent roles like mother-baby, neonatal, or general med-surg also make strong candidates, and holding an active New York RN license with a current BLS certification gives any new applicant a clear edge.

Where can I find and apply to pediatric registered nurse jobs in New York?

You can find and apply to pediatric registered nurse jobs in New York on Migrate Mate, which lists current New York openings updated regularly. Find the roles that fit your experience and location, then apply directly to the employer through the listing.
