Hello! My name is Drew Richards, and I am a 27-year-old dedicated and passionate caregiver. I graduated from Elkhart Memorial High School and furthered my education at Indiana University South Bend (IUSB), where I earned a degree in Elementary Education with concentrations in Early Childhood, Special Education, and Psychology. My passion for working with children has been a lifelong journey, and I am committed to providing a nurturing, educational, and fun environment for your little ones. Since 2018, I have been a substitute teacher for Elkhart Community Schools, gaining diverse experience across various grade levels. Additionally, I had my own first-grade classroom during the 2021-2022 school year, where I honed my skills in creating engaging and supportive learning environments. I am also a proud pet parent of three dogs, which has made me very comfortable and skilled in caring for pets. I am eager to become an integral part of Read more your family, helping to support and enhance the amazing village you have created for your children.
