It depends on part of the country you live in, years experience, and advance certifications.
Some hospitals will not let you start there till you get experience with normal size people, then normal size babies. Others will take you right in.
It could be as little as 25K and probably starts around 35K.
Once you get your degree, you will still need your ACLS, PALS NALS and the list goes on.
In the year 2000, the first 1000 gram baby turned 18 and was as normal as any other 18 year old. Last I heard a 750 gram baby has a 50% chance of survival.
Advances are making them rare. A lot of nurses are afraid of high-tech pediatrics. It can be very rewarding but if you want to go there for the money, there is more to be made elsewhere. It is very demanding on your schedule. Nights and weekends are a given for new nurses. Also you will give up many holidays with your family.
Other than that, it is one of the most awesome jobs on the planet.

... imagine demanding. ALL Nurse practitioner classes will be going to Doctorate classes in 2015. All different carry close's aspect nursing classes will be going to Doctorate classes in 2025. carry close's aspect nursing will no longer exist. in case you have not began nursing college yet, then your merely 2 concepts are: physician of Nursing? or physician of medication? once you've about a three.8+ GPA and characteristic taken some college aspect instructions and maintained those grades (Calculus, Physics, Chemistry/organic and organic Chemisty). then you somewhat are on par with ninety% of another medical college applicant. in case your have about a three.2 GPA then you somewhat will probable get in to nursing college... that is a incontrovertible reality that maximum folk who follow to medical college are unlikely in. maximum of those human beings have 3.5+ gpas with their Bachelor degree in a demanding technological understanding. i have study countless books which have stated each and every medical college seat in the country ought to correctly be full of PhD applicants (applicants who carry a Doctorate degree in yet another field). and many them to no longer get in. besides the reality that you verify, sturdy success~!
