Hi all
Not been on here for a long time but needing to sound off and get some much needed advice if you lovely ladies don't mind. I have applied to college to do access to nursing as I really feel it's time for a change. The past few months I am having more bad days than good and feel it's time for a change. My son is in his first year at nursery although love spending time with him, he is very hard work and just feel every day is a struggle with him and other kids. He's not as 'into everything' when it's just us and wonder if it's the right thing having children with us all the time. We are having some of his 'behaviours' looked into the now but going through a really difficult phase where I'm not sure if this is good for him or good for the other children. I've always like the idea of nursing so thought this would be a good year to start as I would do a year at college (getting same hols etc as school) before doing uni when he is Primary 1.
Has any of you ladies ever done nursing/caring as a job previous? Got so many things going through my head and scared in case I make the wrong decision. I've been thinking of applying for a home carer job for a shift at the weekend to see how I get on. Has anyone done that before? What's it really like etc? I've just dropped a day with one of my children and another two may be leaving in July so may be needing to change anway. Ohhh why are decisions so hard to make???
