About Alex

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'm Alex:) I am 21 years old and currently studying to become a practicing doula. I was a school teacher for children ages 5-7 at a daycare in Sun Prairie, Wi, I am CPR certified and love kids I have my own apartment that I can watch kids at also! For the past 2 years I have been working as a Registered Behavioral Therapist working with children diagnosed with Autism. I have experience working with kids of all ages from newborn to teens, as well as experience with children on and off the spectrum. I have found that the strategies I have learned from my work as an RBT has helped with my gentle parenting style of childcare. My passion is helping new moms and families in need!

We were very nervous and didn't know what to expect when looking for a sitter for our high energy 1.5 year old. I am so grateful to have been contacted by Alex because she was as perfect as a fit as we could have had for our family. Her knowledge in ND/autism in children, general childcare, and gentle/respectful care-giving was exactly what we were looking for. She was able to provide gentle, firm boundaries with our little while also fostering a kind, caring relationship to encourage confidence and healthy attachment. She was always encouraging learning in a chill, low-pressure way- which was perfect for our kiddo. She also took my son out on excursions to the local parks and libraries and provided updates/pictures. I just can't emphasize enough how wonderful she was with our little one. Alex was always straightforward with schedule availability and ALWAYS punctual. We really could not have found a better match for our family, which is why her recent out of state move was so heartbreaking. The bar has been set so high that I haven't even started looking for another sitter. There is no replacing Alex in our family. So, if you do hire Alex, please know you have a very capable and knowledgeable person looking after your little. Your baby will be safe and loved.
