If you are a caring and compassionate individual, our BN (Hons) Nursing (Child) degree will help you become a highly skilled and much sought-after graduate nurse, specialising in caring for children across a variety of settings.

This is a dynamic and interactive professional course that places the needs of patients at its centre. Throughout the course, our team of supportive and accessible lecturers will help you to realise your potential to become a caring, effective and autonomous nurse who is able to deliver and lead child care within an ever-changing health and social care environment.

The course enables you to develop and display the values required in modern healthcare: working together for patients; respect and dignity; commitment to quality of care; compassion, and improving lives. It also addresses contemporary challenges such as the ageing population, increasingly prevalent long-term health conditions and public health.
