Hello, my name is Elsa Jakobsen. I am 22 years old and currently getting my Master of Social Work at VCU and working at a behavioral health hospital. I have experience working with adolescents and caring for young children. I love kids and I am hoping to help out some parents in need of caregiving! My most recent experience is caring for toddlers 3 and under, but I have experience with all ages! I am CPR certified and have a clean driving/criminal record. Reach out for additional information and questions, thank you!
