I am lucky to have a job which works around my children. I have done it for a long time. I'm really good at it if I do say myself. My daughter is still relatively young so working around the children is a good thing.
I am however feeling a bit trapped as I can't move up or even sideways. I would need to change totally. I can't afford to not work.
If I wait for my daughter to finish primary school I will be 47. Is it even possible to start a new career then? Can I do some general at home, training in IT to boost my skills for example?
I can't imagine any employer wants someone who has done the same job for 24 years?
Any advice or experience is welcome. 🙏🏻
