You take care of everyone else.
It’s time to take care of your finances.

Clarity. Confidence. Control.

For nurses done with financial overwhelm.

Tired of feeling behind with your money? Feel like money is always stressful? 

Most money advice doesn’t fit real nurse life.
We do things differently here, just for nurses.

MEET OUR FOUNDER 

Built for nurses, led by a nurse who's been there.

April Waddell is a former pediatric ICU nurse who understands how overwhelming money can feel in a nursing career. After working through her own financial confusion, she turned that experience into a mission: helping nurses feel calm, confident, and in control of their money.

She created NurseMoneyDate® in 2021 because most financial advice isn’t built for nurses. It ignores burnout, student debt, rotating shifts, and the emotional labor nurses carry every day. April believes nurses deserve financial guidance that actually fits their lives, not generic advice that adds more stress.

Through education, mentorship, and practical, real-world tools, April helps nurses move out of overwhelm and into sustainable wealth-building. Her approach is judgment-free and grounded in progress, not perfection. No shame. No guilt. Just clarity and confidence that lasts.

Over the last four years, NurseMoneyDate® has helped over 100+ nurses:

Invite April as a speaker at your next nursing event.

Looking for a speaker who actually gets nurses and won’t bore them with outdated budgeting tips?

Whether you're hosting a conference, workshop, or staff development session, April delivers custom presentations that meet your audience where they are. From student loan overwhelm to long-term wealth planning, April makes money make sense and keeps it engaging, relevant, and refreshingly honest.

Nurse Katie finally feels in control of her money...

"This was everything my husband Mitch and I needed. April broke down complex ideas and systems in a way that was much easier to understand. We felt that we had no idea where our money was going and how we were spending it, but now feel in charge of our money and investments. She meets you where you are in your financial journey. We feel like we understand how and when we can retire while also enjoying how we live in freedom now."

Katie BSN, RN | Corporate Nurse

Nurse Stephanie already made her money back, and then more...

“April has helped me understand my financial wellness and ways to improve it. I feel like I have a realistic plan of what to do next. By investing in her program, I’ve saved thousands of dollars. The most surprising thing about the whole experience was how easy it was to understand the information. I wish I had completed this program sooner!”
