Destanee Tugwell

Sometimes Teacher

Destanee was born in Wisconsin but grew up around Hillsborough, NC where she met her husband. In September 2020, they welcomed their first child–a daughter, Reyna. During her free time, Destanee enjoys listening to music, traveling, and spending time with her family. 

Destanee has worked in Reggio-inspired childcare before.  This work allowed her to realize that early childhood education is her vocation and true passion.  She believes that you “do what you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” Destanee is currently working toward a degree in early childhood.  Her daily goal is to help each child in her path to feel strong, capable, and loved for the unique individuals they are!
