Can people who have either school hour jobs, 9-5 jobs or work from home jobs comment below what job you do please, if you don't mind.

I need a career change and my daughter is starting school in September so a job to work around the school hours would be beneficial.

My background is care/nursing but I want a total career change but the only problem is I only have experience in care/nursing.

Help a mum out please!

Have you worked as a home carer? You could stipulate your hours.
You could be a SMA or TA but I believe those jobs are much sought after.
Have you considered retraining as a teacher? You can do it in one year with schemes like Schools Direct.

I work in finance. My work hours are 8-4.15 (my choice - most are 9-5.15.)

WFH 3-4 days per week.

Flexible lunch hour which is useful for appts.

The 4.15 finish is great because I get plenty of time with DC in the evenings.

What is it you do with finance exactly? I don't have any experience with that so not sure if that's something I'd be able to do, but them hours sound superb though!

I've not done home care before as I've heard you are travelling to different houses more than your actually in the houses. But I do want to come out of care.

How about social services? Either admin /support type roles or retain as a social worker?
Lots are still working from home and they tend to have Flexi hours, or part time roles, plus your nursing background will come in useful
