Okay so here's another question for anyone who has an answer. If I want to get into a "mother/baby unit" what can I do to make myself look more qualified, even though I won't have any working experience in that area???? Are there classes or certifications to make me more knowledgeable in this area???? Thanks

Hello. I am a high school student that is thinking about future job options. I have always thought that I would like to be a nurse, caring for women and their new babies, or at least women anyway. If I become a nurse, I know that I want to work in OB/GYN - more specifically with the newborns - but I know I would do okay is GYN too. The actual question is this - is it okay to be a nurse in OB/GYN and only want to do pre-natal + gynecology OR postpartum/healthy newborn care. I don't think want to be in L&D or in NICU. IS THAT OKAY? I would really appreciate any information that anyone has to offer.
