I have a bachelors in El. Ed. and taught for a few years (kindergarten) before having my first child 12 years ago. Teaching was not for me and dont ever want to go back. I had my last child 6 1/2 years ago. I had to do something to help our financial siutation so I took on babysitting babies. I said I would stop once my youngest started Kindergarten. Well she is now in 1st grade. I want to do something I truly enjoy. I have never had a job I thought "hey I like what I do." I have always (and should have gone into this field 20 years ago) been into fitness and nutrition.
My question is...is there anything I can do with my bachelors in education in Fitness & Nutrition that wouldnt involve years of schooling. I looked into Physical therapy but would actually have to commute to a town 3 hours away. I also dont know if I could actually be a personal trainer. Would love something in Nutrition but where and what? But how do I get started? I wouldnt even know of a good online school program. Certifications? I'm clueless.
Any ideas?

You would be a good PErsonal trainer You listen to people and understand what they are saying. You answer questions clearly too. What does that place on Dupont do? I thought it was a personal training school.0
