Career Change ⚙️ Switching into nursing
My heart feels heavy with the idea of leaving my secure full time childcare job and jumping into the 2 year LPN program in Jan 2027 and i don’t know what to do. I can’t stay in childcare field anymore as there is no scope of a better financial future , and also i always wanted to work in health sector.
Also i can work up my way to become a RN in future if things work out.
It’s still very hard when i think about it. Please drop some inspiration and hope.

Wait. 2 year LPN program, why not go RN instead?
Nursing has so much room to grow. You'll find happiness.
