Need Guidance On Relocating Abroad To Study Nursing Or Work As A Caregiver by EloSuccess(op): 11:53pm On Aug 31, 2025
This is my story. Please advise.
I’m a young girl of 24 years, soon to be 25 in a few months. I studied Mass Communication, class of 2024.
I want to leave the country and study nursing, which has always been my dream. I wrote my WAEC this year, and my result is pretty good. I have been researching the easiest route to leave the country. I recently stumbled on caregiver jobs, which led me to start taking online courses. I’ll also be starting physical training soon on HCA and phlebotomy.
I’m considering seeking sponsorship visas as a caregiver to either Canada, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Australia, or the UK.
I honestly don’t know how to proceed. I explored scholarships in Australia and Canada, but the schools keep referring me to their registered agents, who ask me to pay ₦35M–₦45M for them to process and apply to the schools, so I gave up on that. I really need guidance on how to get a caregiver job with a sponsorship visa.
I also got an agent to help me process a study visa, but he told me to rather apply for a 6-month visa and then “find a way around it” when I get there. That didn’t sit well with me at all.
By the way, I have a small spa and aesthetics business that I run here in Nigeria, and it’s been yielding small profits, which I use to pay my bills. But you know how tough it is running a small business without the funds to properly establish it.

For the countries listed you have zero chances of getting sponsorship for a caregiver visa. You are not even a caregiver nor have experience in it to begin with. Before UK own casted they were charging people 10m naira to illegally runs it ( COS) .You have to find your into those countries by student visa , marriage, visit visa or permanent residency .

Some business owners find that going to a neighboring country makes a difference. Many of the obstacles in Nigeria aren't elsewhere. People have good things to say about Cote D'Ivoire. But ask some of the people doing it to see the current status of these places.
