    You only need an associate's degree to work as a neonatal or labor and delivery nurse. There is no unit in a hospital that requires a bachelor's degree for a nurse to work there. There will be some jobs in most areas of a hospital that will require higher degrees - usually jobs in administration or management. A labor and delivery nurse wears many different hats. They must be able to respond to emergencies, they must be comfortable teaching patients, they must be culturally sensitive, and they must know how to circulate and/or scrub on surgeries.

To work as a Postpartum or Mother/Baby nurse, all you need to do is become an RN. Same goes for NICU, and Labor/Delivery. Some hospital networks do prefer a BSN, but there is not a "nursing law" that stipulates only RNs with a BSN can work in certain areas as primary care nurses.
