I’m Demetria Largie — a mother, author, and literacy advocate with over 8 years of experience as a classroom teacher and instructional coach. I earned my B.A. in Elementary Education from the University of South Florida and my M.Ed. in Educational Leadership from Saint Leo University. As a teen mom who turned challenges into stepping stones, I know firsthand how powerful it is to be seen, encouraged, and supported. That’s why I foundedDiapers & Dreams LLC — to combine my love for education and storytelling into a mission that reaches beyond the classroom and into the heart of the community.

Whether I’m writing books, leading workshops, or speaking to educators and families, my message is clear: representation matters, and every child deserves stories that celebrate who they are and what they’re capable of.
