I'll be honest, once you have a child of your own you may not want to go back to work, and if you do decide to go back to work you def need to love your job, trust me. I had thought about being a nanny before I had my son. It is so out of the norm and not along my career path but I quickly changed that idea when I became a full time step mom and had a child of my own. Being around other kids is even harder after you have kids of your own bc well, kids stress you out. Unless you are one of those people who absolutely loves loves being around kids all day, don't torture yourself. And trust me, the only kind of ppl who truly should be in child care or be teachers are the ones who absolutely love and adore all children all the time and love their job! Caring for children is a tough job. I think you'll want a break though once you have your own, unless you could care for your child at the daycare and work there too and get a discount. My Moto is though you definitely have to love your job
I do love kids that's why I chose to work in a field that I can interact with them. I just don't think I can work with the toddler age. I also feel like a great deal of my stress comes from how my boss is along with working in a room that I can't handle the amount of stress I'm dealing with everyday. I do have children, 2 of them and this is my 4th pregnancy so I know that it may be hard once I have my baby. Ideally, if I could be a stay at home mom I would.
