That's the biggest hurdle I think. Once you have a gap on your resume, it is hard to re-enter the workforce even if you have the time once your child starts school.


I guess it depends on where you live. If you get established in a community, it's not that difficult. I've taken a year off of work (twice) to do some personal things and never had trouble getting back in the saddle.

Staying busy doing community stuff helps fill the gap in the resume. Many employers look favorable on that.

Roger, what is the hospital situation like where you live, schools, housing costs etc? Oakland is not a city that a little girl dreams of moving to when she grows up. We have thought alot about Washington and Colorado (like nature, snowboarding, freedom )....never really considered Alaska, but I am open to anywhere RNs make a decent income, schools are good, and I can afford a small and modest home on one income...
