Mid Level
Embark on a meaningful travel nursing journey as a Registered Nurse in the Mother Baby specialty, premiering in Vail, Colorado, with a start date of 04/05/2026 for a multi-week assignment that guarantees at least 24.0 hours per week. This is more than a job posting—it’s an invitation to shape the early moments of families’ lives, to empower new parents with confidence, and to grow within a supportive community that celebrates clinical excellence, compassion, and professional development. In the Mother Baby setting, you’ll blend evidence-based postpartum and newborn care with education, advocacy, and the kind of teamwork that makes challenging days feel rewarding. Picture yourself guiding families through postpartum recovery, newborn assessments, jaundice screening, lactation support, and parental education while partnering with physicians, therapists, and unit colleagues to ensure safe, holistic care. And as you bring healing and reassurance to families, you’ll find a workplace culture that values your voice, your learning, and your well-being.
Location Benefits: Nestled in the iconic beauty of Colorado’s Front Range, Vail offers a unique blend of small-town charm and world-class mountain experiences. From pristine alpine vistas and powdery slopes to vibrant dining and cultural options, you’ll enjoy a high quality of life that supports balance between rewarding clinical work and outdoor exploration. Vail’s medical community is renowned for patient-centered care, interdisciplinary collaboration, and a commitment to delivering exceptional outcomes for mothers and newborns. Beyond your assignment, the opportunity exists to broaden your horizons by collaborating on adaptable placements across the U.S., gaining exposure to diverse patient populations and hospital settings. The local environment encourages resilience, creativity, and continued learning—whether you’re mentoring new nurses, refining lactation counseling skills, or leading family-centered rounds in a fast-paced postpartum unit. This is a chance to immerse yourself in a location that harmonizes breathtaking scenery with meaningful, life-changing care.
Role Specifics and Benefits:
- Key Responsibilities: As a Mother Baby RN, you will perform comprehensive postpartum and newborn assessments, monitor maternal and neonatal vitals, support lactation and feeding plans, provide newborn screenings and immunization education, assist with pain management and recovery protocols, teach new parents safe infant care, promote safe sleep practices, coordinate discharge planning, and document thoroughly in the electronic health record. You’ll collaborate with obstetric teams, nurses, social workers, and lactation consultants to ensure smooth transitions from hospital to home and to address families’ questions with empathy and clarity. You’ll advocate for patient safety, participate in infection prevention, and contribute to unit quality initiatives that elevate the standard of care.
- Professional Growth: The Mother Baby environment is rich with opportunities for advancement, mentorship, and specialization. You’ll have access to continuing education, leadership development, and potential pathways to lead roles within perinatal services, analytics-driven performance improvement projects, or education/clinical outreach to new families and community settings. Expect a dynamic learning environment where your clinical judgment is supported and your ideas for improving patient experience are encouraged.
- Competitive Benefits and Financial Support: This assignment offers competitive weekly pay in the range of $2,632-$2,844, with guaranteed hours of 24.0 per week. We also provide a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease your transition to the destination, along with potential extension opportunities if you and the facility wish to continue the placement.
