Nevada licensing
What license a nurse needs here.
Nevada is not part of the Nurse Licensure Compact, so a multistate license from another state does not cover it. A nurse caring for your baby in Nevada needs a Nevada RN or LPN license.
Nurses here are licensed by the Nevada State Board of Nursing.
Look up any nurse's license with the Nevada State Board of Nursing or on Nursys before you hire. Every unlock of a nurse through us includes license verification.

Questions families ask
How much does a night nurse cost in Nevada?
Nurses set their own rates. Our rate guide puts licensed night nurses in Nevada at about $44 to $66 an hour, depending on the area, with Reno at the top. Through Night Nurse you pay your nurse directly, plus one flat $1,500 placement fee for a licensed nurse.
Can a nurse with a multistate license work in Nevada?
No. Nevada is not in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so a nurse caring for your baby in Nevada needs a Nevada RN or LPN license.
Do I owe my night nurse overtime in Nevada?
Possibly. You hire your nurse directly, so your family is the employer. Under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, a household employee who does not live in your home, paid by the hour, is owed time and a half for hours over 40 in a workweek. State law adds more (Nevada Domestic Workers' Bill of Rights, 2017). Nevada law names nurses as domestic service employees. They are owed time and a half after 40 hours in a week, and after 8 hours in a day only if paid less than 1.5 times the state minimum wage, which most night nurses are not. Ask a tax or legal adviser how this applies to your plan.
Does Nevada pay parents for leave after a birth?
Nevada has no state paid family leave program that pays new parents. The federal Family and Medical Leave Act gives up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave to parents who qualify, so many families plan night care around when a partner goes back to work.
