Daily commute from BR to NOLA

Hey folks. I'll be moving to BR soon for a job, and my girlfriend is a nurse and potentially eyeing a job at Childrens Hospital New Orleans. We're thinking of getting a place in the east side of BR/Prairieville, and she says she thinks she can deal with the commute but we're looking for opinions from people who do it regularly. She'd be working 3 days per week, needing to be there at 7am and leaving around 7:30pm so hopefully she'd be avoiding most of rush hour. If anyone has some advice or insight, we'd appreciate it! Thanks!
