About Dekontee

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! My name is Dekontee but everyone who knows me calls me DK, and I've been working with children since 2012 in roles ranging from teacher's aide to applying ABA techniques as a behavioral technician to after-school nanny. I'm passionate about helping children feel seen, supported, and safe while also encouraging their curiosity and confidence. My teaching style is hands-on and rooted in patience. I believe that children learn best by doing and by watching the example we set. Fun fact: I completed my first Spartan 10K race this year and am currently training for the 21K. Just like with kids, I love a good challenge and believe in growing stronger step by step!

She is responsible, compassionate loving and caring. I love the way she takes her assignments very seriously and give her 100%. Love the humor and happy personality. Known her for 10 years by now never been disappointed.
