About Dru

Hi everyone, my name is Dru! I'm 22 years old and I recently moved to Grinnell from Minnesota! I have babysat and helped watch kids at church events ever since I was about 14, and I have younger cousins I've helped look after over the years. For me, kids have always been my happy place in a way. I have always enjoyed being around them and taking care of them. When I was in high school, I participated in a college level class in which I helped out a couple classrooms during the school year. The first half of the year, I worked with an 8th grade history class, and assisted as needed. The second half of the year, I worked with a 1st grade class, mainly helping the kids with reading and writing, as well as doing crafts and other activities the teacher did with them. I would love to have the opportunity to help more kids, no matter what age they are. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me!
