Hi! My name is Elsa and I recently relocated to Des Moines from Saint Paul, MN. I have my masters in Clinical Exercise Physiology from UW River Falls and a bachelors from University of Minnesota-Duluth. For the past two years I've been working in Cardiac Rehab in a hospital setting. Unfortunately after a few months of searching, there haven't been any openings in my field in the Des Moines area. So I've decided to pursue a job in childcare! I've always loved kids and have experience with all ages! I especially enjoy helping kids stay active and spending as much time outdoors as possible! For the past 5 years I have been a part-time PCA for three amazing females with down syndrome (began when they were 8 until age 13-14). I also have experience watching my nephew part-time and then occasionally from birth until age 3. I have my BLS Read more certification (includes CPR).
