And, if healthcare is your calling, why not consider a job as a traveling nurse.  This is great for those moms who children are now in high school or college, and you are looking to get back into the workforce.  Not only will you get to travel and make your own schedule, but you will get the satisfaction of knowing that you are helping people out.  I loved working in the healthcare field for the 10+ years I was a health educator, prior to my daughter's being born. Now, I am enjoying being a stay-at-home mom.  But, once they get older, I can't wait to get back into the healthcare field.
