Stick or twist - new career

Hi, looking for advice / thoughts…
I currently have a permanent term time only job in a preschool just at the bottom of my road (my 2 kids attend the primary next door so ideal location) pay isn’t brilliant but we get by.
I’ve been there for 7 years (working in childcare sector for 16 years) and I’ve got as high as I can career wise without going to uni to do a teaching degree (which wouldn’t be easy to juggle I know, and seeing teachers leaving at a rate of knots makes me fearful)
I feel a bit bored and unmotivated now with this line of work, and wondering if I should try something new…
I keep looking at opportunities in healthcare, but the nhs also seems quite dire at the moment….
Do I stick with the easy option until
the kids are older and in high school and look for opportunities then? Or would I have missed the boat by that point (my youngest of four, I’m 37!)
sorry for long post. TIA.
