What certifications should I get in order to enter on cyber security related jobs?

This is my profile summary:

1. I am a Nurse.
2. I dont have IT related education.
3. I am proficient in computer hardware and software troubleshooting because it is my hobby.
4. I am proficient in Python and Java.
5. I am a foreigner.
6. I am 31 years old.

I hope you can advice me.

Thank you.

Recently taken some interest in cyber security due to nature of my work. I am totally new to cyber security. My objective is to gain basic / build good foundation in security area so that it will help in my work and career.

May I know which is more for recognition and learning?

CompTia security+

After some reading, I thought compTia security+ would be good foundation course for me.
