I want a new career....

Posted in WantobeaNURSE on Mar 28, 2007

I am a single mother of two teenage boys.  I want to be a nurse.  I already have a  bachelors degree in education (graduated 1991! thanks to my parents, bless their hearts!!) but I have not been able to land a teaching job since my divorce in 1998.  I was able to be a stay at home mom while I was married and I had full intention of beginning a career once my children were in school.  BUT....it has been very difficult to find a job.  I guess they prefer the ones straight out of school or someone with tons of experience.  Well, I have decided that I have a great need to help others and though teaching does a great service, SO DOES NURSING!!  Right??  I understand that there is great shortage of nurses in the US today.   I just need to figure out HOW to go to nursing school, which is full time, and support my kids at the same time.  I need to take two classes before I can enroll in the program and I could take those this summer.  I get $600 a month for child support and I try to substitute teach as much as I can.  Any help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks so much for just reading my story.  I have faith that there are people in this world who want to make a difference.  I want to be one of those people TOO!!!
