How old are you guys? I am a registered nurse. Nursing assistant are also called CNA. To become a CNA, you don't have to go a college. It's a one month course and all they want is high school degrees. Also, you don't just get to work with babies. Many hospitals don't hire CNAs for Mother-baby unit. They will rather use you in a floor with adult floor where you wash older people and change their diapers.
Why does your friend want to be a CNA? It's a dead end job. You make only $8 to $11 an hour. You work long hours and you don't have time for your self.

Tell her to go to college and become a Registered nurse. It's a respectable position and you make good money as well.

CNAs are not considered nurses. They are assistant to nurses. Don't go into that profession. Become someone higher.
