career advice, please help

I had a very good job in the City with flexible hours but was made redundant last week. am a mom of a 18 month old and not sure whether I want to go back to a job in the City - very competitive and stressful. am wondering whether i should seek professional help - a career advisor maybe...
has anyone done this and is it worth it? as far as I understand it costs quite a lot, so would be grateful for a second opinion.

Its the contact a mumsnetter service whereby you send a message to another mumsnetter and mumsnet pass it on. Just tried to CAT you with my email address however you are set up not to receive messages from other mumsnetters!
If you go to shortcuts(mine are showing at the bottom of this screen and look for the Membership heading. Contact a mumsnetter should be listed there. Click on the link and it talks you through.
