[donnacabonna]

Hi im 19 years old and I am wanting to become Nurse Anesthetist and I really want to work in Pediatrics, because I love children. I am currently enrolled a community college to get my Associate in Nursing. I do not have a job right now and I plan on moving out of my parents house with in the next year, so I need a job to save money. I was wondering should I take a Certified Nursing Aide program or a Medical Assisting one. My plan is to go to a community college for 2 years then to a 4yr to earn my BSN then my Master's in Nurse Anesthetist. So help me out guys [ppl w/ experience] is it a good idea for me to get into a Medical Assisting program or a CNA program? I really need to make extra money and save up for when I move out and I want a job until I can get my Associates as a RN.
