Are you already a qualified midwife looking to return to practice? No courses will be fully online, it's mainly practical!

You can't train as a nurse or midwife online. It's 50:50 theory and placements on wards.

Interested in this thread?

You might be able to do some preparatory work online, but qualifying as a midwife will require a significant amount of practical work.....obviously.

You might want to check your sources about this course. Also, qualifying will require placements etc will mean you're away from your family at times whilst working shifts.

Don't feel guilty about leaving the children. They will be at school mostly or going to school.

A day will come when they will up and leave so why not have a career and at least you will be sorted. You need to follow your passion now whilst they are young. Depending on the ages they won't even remember you not being there
