Labor and Delivery CNA Jobs Overview

Certified nursing assistants (CNAs) perform a wide range of supporting tasks to help patients feel comfortable, while assisting RNs and other nursing professionals in their roles. Common responsibilities of labor and delivery CNA jobs in particular include monitoring patients’ vital signs, assisting expectant mothers with mobility and hygiene, and providing emotional support throughout the labor and delivery process (actual scope of practice will vary by state and facility). The demand for CNAs is expected to grow by 4% from 2022 to 2032, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Want a fresh start to your healthcare career? Whether you’re looking for entry-level labor and delivery CNA jobs or you’re a seasoned pro, IntelyCare’s industry-leading job board gives you access to part-time, full-time, contract, temporary, or per diem CNA openings in labor and delivery and other specialized nursing fields.

Labor and Delivery CNA Skills, Education, and Certifications

Interested in learning how to become a labor and delivery CNA? Requirements for aspiring CNAs differ by state, and this specialty may require additional certifications pertaining to various roles in the L&D unit. Not all hospitals and birthing centers employ nurse assistants, however, and in those that do, jobs in labor and delivery are highly sought after.

Also, keep in mind that CNAs are referred to by other titles in some states:

  • State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA): Ohio
  • Licensed nursing assistant (LNA): New Hampshire, Vermont
  • State Registered Nursing Assistant (SRNA): Kentucky

Aspiring CNAs must have a high school degree or a GED, in addition to completion of a state-approved nurse assistant training program. These programs are typically offered by community colleges and online institutions. Then, you’ll need to pass the CNA certification exam (which, depending on your state, may include skill demonstrations) to become eligible for work in this field.

If you’re looking into labor and delivery CNA jobs in particular, then you’ll want to consider the temperament and soft skills required for the role (take a look at the requirements of becoming a labor and delivery nurse for guidance). Nursing professionals working in L&D units must be compassionate, personable, and have strong interpersonal communication skills.

Resume and Cover Letter forLabor and Delivery CNAs

Make sure your CNA resume and cover letter are current and written in a way that highlights how your skills, experience, and interests make you an ideal candidate for the L&D unit. Since nursing professionals working in labor and delivery are among the happiest, it should come as no surprise that jobs for nursing assistants in this speciality are particularly competitive. Make sure you convey your genuine interest in the L&D specialty in your cover letter.

Interviewing for CNA Jobs in Labor and Delivery Units

Having the right temperament and poise is important for any healthcare position, but is especially critical for L&D CNAs. You may want to review common questions asked during CNA job interviews, such as why you want to work as a CNA and how you handle difficult or tense situations, but also prepare to answer questions more specific to this specialty. Take a look at frequently asked labor and delivery nurse interview questions to help you get ready for your interview.

Labor and Delivery CNA Jobs: Salary and Compensation

The national average pay for CNAs is $39,610 annually or $19.04 hourly, but actual pay will vary by state, how much experience you have, education, and even by type of facility. For instance, CNAs working in general medical and surgical hospitals (where L&D units typically are located) may be paid an annual salary of $40,840 in the U.S., compared to $35,640 for home health care CNAs at the low end of the pay spectrum. These areas have some of the highest salaries for nursing assistants:

Many facilities, particularly those who hire CNAs as W2 employees rather than as contractors, also offer a wide range of benefits such as health coverage, vision and dental insurance, paid time off, and retirement plans. Perks sometimes include free company merch, catered lunches, or employee wellness programs.
