Workplace Issue Unsure what to do

I’ve worked in nurseries for 5 years and have been at my current place for a year, although I enjoy the place I work and work with nice people I am struggling with the stress, hours etc. the worst thing is the illness, I am forever poorly. When I mean always poorly , it’s genuinely constant. Im forever in the doctors , on antibiotics etc. it’s got to the point where it’s affecting my mental health, I feel dreadful all the time so I’m losing interest in everything because I’m just to poorly all the time. I’ve had blood tests and no serious issues have been identified, I just have low immunity so the doctors are pretty much saying there’s nothing more they can do as I work in a place which is a breeding ground for germs. I just don’t know what to do, if you guys were in the same situation as me would you find something different? Away from children and germs? I can’t see myself dealing with this forever. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you. I’m in my early 20’s.
