Mature single parent UNI

Hi,

I am hoping to do ODP or paramedic science starting 2019.
I have a 2yr old and I’m a single parent.
I don’t have any support nearby to help with childcare and I am panicking about night shift placements. I have absolutely no one I can ask for help to stay with my child overnight. And then once qualified I will be doing shifts that will sometimes be night shifts, again I have the same dilemma. Does anyone have experience with this?

I am considering changing my course choice to something completely different that won’t involve night shifts but tbh the choices don’t really appeal to me.

Please help. I have to have everything decided buy January :/
Thanks in adavance
