Nurse Midwife Jobs by State
Certified Nurse Midwife
Certified Nurse Midwives (CNM) provide primary health care to women, including gynecological exams, family planning, prenatal care, assistance in labor and delivery, and neonatal care. They are skilled in the art and science of birthing. They provide individualized care and help to minimize medical interventions. CNMs work in hospitals, clinics, health departments, homes and private practices.
Certified nurse-midwives (CNMs) are registered nurses who are also certified. To become certified, they must graduate from a nurse-midwifery program accredited by the American College of Nurse Midwives, and pass a national certification exam. CNMs are educated in both nursing and midwifery and can practice anywhere in the U.S.
In contrast, Direct-Entry Midwives (also called Lay, Licensed, or Professional Midwives) practice midwifery, but they are not registered nurses, and are not certified. You can find a list of Direct-Entry Midwife schools at the Natural Healers web site.
The American College of Nurse Midwives offers a Certified Midwife (CM) designation for Lay Midwives who graduate from a midwifery school accredited by the ACNM, and pass a certification exam. The CM designation is for lay midwives who want to show that they practice midwifery at an accredited standard.
The American College of Nurse-Midwives (ACNM) estimates that one in ten babies in the U.S. will be delivered by certified nurse-midwives. Ten years ago, only three percent of births in the U.S. were attended by nurse-midwives. In 1998 there were 277,811 CNM-attend births in the U.S.. (Source: National Vital Statistics Report, (vol. 48, no.3, 3/28/00) from the National Center for Health Statistics.) Worldwide, midwives deliver more than two-thirds of births.
Median Annual Salary
$83,908
Educational Requirements

- A current license to practice as a registered nurse in one of the 50 states
- One to two years nursing experience
- A minimum GPA of 3.0.
