NNPs typically hold a Master’s or Doctoral degree in nursing with a focus on neonatology. Their education covers a wide range of subjects, including neonatal resuscitation, advanced physiology, pharmacology, and neonatal pathophysiology. They also undergo rigorous clinical training to gain hands-on experience in managing neonatal disorders. Certification from organizations such as the National Certification Corporation (NCC) is often required to practice as an NNP.
