A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Destinee! I have several years of experience working with pre-k and elementary-aged children, including those with special needs. I’m passionate about creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can learn, grow, and express themselves.

I’ve also coached both basketball and cheer, which has helped me develop strong skills in teamwork, patience, and creative play. I love planning engaging activities, cooking healthy meals, and finding ways to make everyday moments both educational and enjoyable.

I truly enjoy building connections with the families I work with and being someone they can count on for consistency, care, and positivity.
