A little bit about me

Hello! I’m Alexa. I graduated from college in 2020 with a B.A. in psychology, and I am passionate about working with kids. I believe that childhood is a wonderful, magical, and sacred time, and that adults have a responsibility to protect it. I have spent my career so far doing exactly that— my previous two positions were working as a foster care case manager and as an early childhood mental health consultant through UVA’s statewide ECMHC program. While I am newer to professional childcare, I been babysitting since I was 14, and worked as a summer camp counselor every summer through college.

I am a hands-on care provider who can give your child the appropriate level of structure and guidance necessary to learn, be creative, and thrive 😊 I have experience helping children grow emotionally and behaviorally— i.e., teaching kids to express their emotions and needs with their words instead of their bodies ("meltdowns").
