   SaraAN replied to SaraAN's topic in Uniform/Gear

   Thank you for all the feedback! I put them on to check and there's definitely not enough room for 2 fingers. And it is only the heel lifting rather than my whole foot coming out. I think I'm just not used to them yet. I'll keep wearing them around th...

8. Mom of 4 - can I handle nursing school?

   SaraAN replied to berry987's topic in General Students

   I'm in a similar position. I have 3 boys (2, 6, and 9). I've been home with them and a military wife, traveling all over. I'm starting nursing school in August and feeling pretty confident about it. I feel so much more equipped this time around. When...

   SaraAN replied to MNSS's topic in General Students

   We've used care.com in the past with great luck. Start 2-3 months early so you can interview several nannies and have them come out for a few hours to get to know the kids.
