I am not a Registered Nurse by profession but I heard in 2011 that people qualified in different fields/areas require childcare work experience... maybe the rules change every year.

We hired my sister inlaw as a live-in caregiver on the RN basis. She had work experience in Saudi Arabia as a RN, but never worked as a caregiver. On the application for the work permit, her Registration number as a RN in the Philippines was requested. Visa was issued without question.

Hi, I think, you being a RN is more than enough.

"Successful Completion of Related Training or Experience

Your training or experience should be in EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION, geriatric care, or pediatric nursing, to name just a few areas. If you are a licensed registered nurse, with experience, you are normally considered to meet this requirement."
