AIBU to ask how I leave childcare at 50 with no other experience?

Childcare isn't what it used to be. I'm not as fit as I used to be and I am not enjoying it. I want to leave childcare but not sure what my next step could be?

Has anyone left childcare and done something else successfully? I particularly resent the low pay for the responsibilities required and I've reached my limit now.

Any advice welcome

As above regarding family workers.

There are also a number of jobs in schools - pastoral/attendance roles, due to DfE pressure to increase attendance.
In addition, my LA have a number of SEND hub jobs (caseworker, managers) and EAL/refugee support jobs.
Depending where you are, try charities too (including the Refugee Council).

Skilled education professionals are increasingly hard to find!
