A little bit about me

As a dedicated and caring mother of two, I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children. With experience in child development through volunteer work at an after-school program, I am patient, responsible, and passionate about helping kids learn and grow. I love incorporating creative activities, fostering a love for learning, and ensuring each child feels valued and supported. Whether it’s homework help, fun activities, or simply providing a comforting presence, I am committed to making a positive impact in every child’s life.

A little bit about me

Hi there!
I am currently a junior at the University of South Carolina majoring in Mass Communications. I have worked in customer service and communications for 3 years. I love arts and crafts, cooking/baking, and traveling!

I have experience working with children as I was a counselor for two summers at a YMCA in Virginia. I was also an Orientation Leader for the University of South Carolina from [phone number hidden], so I have experience with larger crowds as well. I have volunteered with numerous organizations that are for and with children as well.

**** I have gone through First Aid and CPR training twice before for a water park, but do not currently have the certification.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Destiney. I have extensive experience caring for children and truly enjoy supporting their growth and development. I am currently pursuing my master’s in Speech-Language Pathology, which has deepened my understanding of child development and communication skills.

Previously, I worked as a kindergarten teacher, where I had the joy of working with children from diverse backgrounds and cultures. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and creating a safe and encouraging environment.

Outside of work and school, I enjoy walking my dog, spending time at the gym, being outdoors, and volunteering as a cheer coach. I’m passionate about bringing both care and creativity into everything I do, and I look forward to supporting families with the same dedication.
