Why work with a labor and delivery RN agency in Minneapolis?
Minnesota is not currently a Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) state, which means L&D registered nurses must obtain a Minnesota nursing license to practice in the state, even if they hold a license from another state.
Navigating licensure requirements can be complex, especially for travel labor and delivery nurses. Because licensing and credentialing often determine how soon you can start, your recruiter keeps that process moving and takes care of the details for you.

Labor and Delivery RN jobs in Minneapolis FAQs
Do I need a Minnesota license to work as an L&D RN in Minneapolis?
In most cases, yes. Labor and delivery RN roles require the appropriate state licensure, and requirements can vary. Minnesota is not a participating state in the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC), so compact licenses are not recognized in Minnesota.
Your Favorite recruiter will confirm what applies to your situation and help you work through licensing and credentialing so it doesn’t hold up your start.
What are the day-to-day responsibilities of a labor and delivery RN?
A labor and delivery RN’s day-to-day responsibilities typically include:
- Caring for and monitoring patients through labor, delivery, and recovery
- Performing and interpreting fetal monitoring
- Assisting physicians and midwives during vaginal and cesarean births
- Providing immediate care to newborns after delivery
- Supporting and educating patients and their families throughout labor
- Recognizing and responding to obstetric complications
- Documenting care accurately at every stage
How will I get paid with Favorite?
Favorite pays employees weekly, by direct deposit or paper check. This applies to labor and delivery RNs unless the facility you work with chooses a bi-weekly schedule.
