About Deshanae

Hi there! I'm a educator for Oakland Unified School District, with a passion for supporting families and helping kids feel seen, heard and known. I have worked as a Childcare Director, Assistant Camp Manager, and Children's Dance specialist. I also helped screen and managed childcare assistants for organizations. Over the past 10+ years, I've worked with children from 6 months - 16 years old. I've cooked, served meals, cleaned laundry, walked dogs and assisted with light housekeeping. In addition I organized and implemented fun activities. While watching toddlers, I enjoy practicing motor skills, singing songs and having toy time. My favorite down time activities are: freeze dance, trips to library and the park.
