Labor and Delivery Nurses help bring babies into the world every day they are on the job. Their job is to care for women during labor and childbirth, monitoring the baby and the mother, coaching mothers and assisting doctors. Furthermore, they prepare women, and their families, for the stages of giving birth and help patients with breastfeeding after the baby is born.
