New job worries

NC for this

I've not worked in over a year due to a mixture of maternity leave & furlough and I was made redundant from my last job at the end of my mat leave recently, I was there 10 years.
I've found a new position fairly quick and I've accepted and start next week.
I'm just really unsure about it, like I just can't put my finger on why.
My partner keeps telling me I shouldn't have accepted the job and waited until something that really suited my came up. I just felt worried I'd struggle to find something for ages. He's totally happy with my being at home & our youngest being at nursery a few days but I feel like I'd be taking the piss & hate the thought of living off his wage.
I don't know what to do I just see myself starting this job and just being unhappy.
It's double the distance & more hours than my last position. The holidays haven't been confirmed to me yet either which is a worry with a school age child aswell.

I don't know if I'm just being silly and worried about starting somewhere new.

Aibu? Should I just suck it up and see how it goes or look for something that doesn't make me feel unsure.

After the first few weeks are over and you remember peoples names and you’re in the swing of work hopefully your fears will be nothing. Smile and say hi and see how it goes
