Thanks everyone i been looking into tution reinbusrment also one day at a time

Hello I have been a Cna for about a year love the job, my co workers supervsior patients all adore my work ethic. But i am ready to take that step to become an RN. My job adores people that push forth into future parts of the nursing field but i have a problem. I have a 3 year old a home fiance and 2 cars. Before i decided to get into nursing i was a preschool teacher but my heart to help the sick kept calling so i figured i start slow and work up the nursing ladder. I am scared im gonna lose time with my child my home my future husband and the car that im paying on i need major advice on what i should do. If i stop working it will cut into our income deep. We are not rich but we are making it day to day. Im still pretty young. I feel like its my calling to be a nurse i dont wanna wait forever either Helppppp

I just got my licenses as a CNA i have been working in a nursing home for about two months and i have became stressed out. We are short staffed all the time feels like i cant breath at times. I go home over tired i can barely drive home with my eyes open. The residents love me and i love making them smile and feel good. But not having enough staff is insane. Missing my lunch break and barely getting a bathroom break. Does anymore else has an opinion or advice. I have applied for other jobs in a different setting because im ready to stop stressing. I shadowed at another job for 2a weeks and felt no stress or anything feel right in like it was my real job. Just waiting because i havent been back to work and hope someone calls me
