If I Could, I Would...

[Msdunny]

This may have been a thread before, but just crossed my mind today. If you could do any job...have any profession...what would you do? Let's suppose money is no issue.

I would either:

- Write for a living. I love doing Bible study, and would love to write either a book or study for others to do.

- Open a boutique type of store, either selling children's items or fair-trade items.

- Be on the mission field with my family.

So, what about you?

Deliver babies!! I've always wanted to be a L&D RN or midwife but had to put college on hold and work straight out of high school. I don't think I like the hospital atmosphere as much anymore and would probably prefer to be a doula for home births or birth centers.

Believe it or not, I am already doing what I love. I just wish I was independently wealthy in addition to it. If I could, I would expand my services, provide more mental health services to families here, take on more kids and an assistant to do the cooking and cleaning while I spent more time with the kids.

Home daycare

I would build a bigger house though better designed for daycare layout

If I could work in any profession without care or worry about what income it brought in, I would be an anthropologist and/or a sociologist

I would also love to be a theologian.

I do love home child care as well, but if money was no object, I would like to further my education in psychology. It intrigues me to observe what makes persons "tick" and "why". This "me", "needy", "high-maintenanced" generation amuses me. I guess this is another reason I enjoy home child care. As providers, we wear many hats and psychologist is one of them. I find myself "helping" parents with tidbits of counseling as often as caring for the children.

I would teach yoga full time to children and teens. I love doing daycare but love yoga more

International travel guide...see the world!

I also would love to be a nurse in maternity to deliver babies! Children have always been my passion and what I want to do for a living. I would quit daycare to be a maternity nurse.

Or hire someone to deal with the parents! If I could just work with the kids , it would be so much easier! ::

Work at a zoo or own a pet store/pet supply store.

[Childminder]

Artist, specifically porcelain or oil.

Home day care...but bigger & better! I'd have my "dream" set-up!

Or a professional student...I'd LOVE to get my Master's and then a PhD. I am a huge nerd and I loved college!

If day care wasn't an option I'd be a librarian. Or a reading teacher.

For some funny reason I also always thought it would be cool to be the person who makes all the food for the animals at the zoo...

Photographer!

I would love to be an anthropologist or archeologist and travel around the world learning about different cultures.
