Just wondering if anyone can advise on best pre-nursing or healthcare course south dublin (near dublin 14,16 etc)..

i spent the last 2 years doing childcare and have had two jobs, but I am finding the work unreliable as I'm only needed here and there now, and having a young child need a steady income etc. I have been looking at part time healthcare level 5 in dundrum as my son will be in his ecce year i will just be paying childcare 2 hours a day.. looking on info for any other courses that would allow me in a few years to study to be a pediatric nurse

also is there any sort of help with childcare through plc colleges or social welfare if i did a course full time as I'm on lone parent? I did my two years doing the childcare on VTOS...

Thanks very much

Some colleges have creche subsidies e.g. ITT. I'm not sure about colleges with PLCs.

Some community creches are part of the childcare subvention scheme

Criteria is SW payment + full medical card for the full subvention
