Hi Bailey,

It's hard to determine jobs that are in high demand because that varies from location to location as well as the season that you're in. I'd say that nursing is a field that is always in high demand, and physician assistants are becoming higher in demand as well. If you want a job that will deal with babies/little kids, you can do any job in pediatrics. I'd say your best bet would be a nurse in the NICU or PICU. If you want to reach even further, you can become a pediatrician. CNA jobs are also in extremely high demand, so you can become a CNA and work in a location that just houses children!
