Come for the Flexibility, Stay for the Smiles

If you want to feel truly appreciated, come to BAYADA.

BAYADA Home Health Care is seeking a compassionate Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) with a passion for pediatric care to join our Essex County Team.

There is something special about helping a child thrive at home. As a BAYADA nurse, you'll provide one-on-one care that allows children to remain in a familiar environment while giving families the support and peace of mind they need. You'll have the time to focus on your patient's individual needs, celebrate milestones, and build meaningful relationships with both the child and their family.

Unlike fast-paced clinical settings, pediatric home care allows you to provide personalized, consistent care to the same clients over time. We work with your availability to match you with ongoing cases, creating continuity for both our nurses and the families we serve.

These openings are different enough in focus, keywords, and messaging that Indeed should clearly recognize them as separate opportunities rather than near-duplicate postings.

What our pediatric nurses love about BAYADA:

Weekly pay (every Thursday)
Flexible scheduling built around your availability
One-on-one care with a single child per shift
Short commute times near your home
$1,200 nurse referral bonus
Watching milestones, building trust, and becoming part of a family’s village

Traditional shifts (8’s, 10’s, or 12’s)
Hands-on, relationship-based care
The joy of helping children grow, learn, and thrive
Time to truly focus on your patient—no rushing, no rotating visits

What your day looks like:

Travel to one child’s home on a schedule you choose
Follow and document physician orders
Perform assessments and monitor condition changes
Provide skilled, compassionate care in a calm home setting
Build strong, lasting connections with clients and families

How BAYADA sets you up for success:

Paid training from day one (office, in-home, and online)
Hands-on practice in award-winning pediatric simulation labs
24/7 clinical support—you’re never alone
Easy electronic charting with Statewise

We care for children of all ages and acuity levels and provide extensive paid training so you feel confident and supported on your very first shift.

401(k) with company match*
Employer-paid life insurance*
