Meet Alexandra

  • Comfortable with pets

hi! I’m Alex, I have 2 kids. Nolan, age 2, and Harper, age 4. I’ve been home with them since Harper was born and I adore spending my days finding fun activities from education to straight out silly things to do. I also am an artist by trade so there is never a shortage of creative play ideas. I am a nurturing mom committed to gentle parenting. My kids have two very different personalities so I have the skills equipped to bond with a very shy reserved child as well as a future ceo. I know how to foster a spectrum of personalities to help them be 100% their authentic selves. I do not discipline, I coach and redirect to achieve desired behaviors. We have an 85 lb chocolate lab, Baines, who absolutely adores kids and is a gentle giant. He’s very obedient and will listen to kids!
