What Families Are Saying About Alexa Roos.

"We had  the pleasure of Alexa Roos joining our family in New Zealand. 

Alexa is such an amazing , caring, kind, honest, thorough person.  

She has magic with family dynamics and children. 

Our daughters and family will never forget and appreciate the time we had with her." 

"Alexa- You have been an invaluable member of the family for the last 3.5 years. You’ve been a mentor, a role model, a friend, and you have left a lasting mark on us all! The joy, laughter and guidance you brought into our home will always be remembered. We are grateful for the last years, and our hearts and home will always be open to you."

"Alexa has been a valuable support and source of knowledge since the day I found out I was going to become a parent. Over the past eight years, I have been able to consult Alexa about any stage along the way. Her patience, empathy, and knowledge inspire me. I always feel safe to go to her with any questions and never feel judged or foolish. She is understanding and a team player looking for ways to cultivate harmony. Applying what I have learned from her has been beneficial to my family's home life. My three children love and respect her, and know she is firm but fun. I would recommend Alexa to anyone with children, whether you are looking to change the tone of your household, or if you are curious in ways to cultivate more coherence in the home."

"Alexa is fantastic! She lived with our family for five years, starting when my older son was just over a year old. My younger son was born a year later, and Alexa was with us through their earliest years. During that time, she wasn’t just helping care for our kids — she became a steady, grounding presence in our home. For them and for us.  

She understood child development in a very real, practical way. She talked to the boys in language that made sense to them at each stage and knew what they were capable of emotionally. When big feelings showed up, she never took it personally or made things worse. She helped the boys name what they were feeling, calm down, and get back on track — something I watched happen again and again. 

She set boundaries clearly and kindly. There was no shaming, blaming, or raised voice. Limits were held and reset as many times as needed until they stuck. The boys felt safe with her. They trusted her. 

Alexa was also thoughtful in how she supported us as parents. She didn’t judge or tell us what to do. If she had ideas, she shared them casually, usually by mentioning something that had worked with Hawthorn or Flint recently — sometimes that same day — and then letting it sit. It was natural, helpful, and never felt like advice. 

Years later, many parents wish they had been shown how to handle meltdowns without damage, set boundaries without fear, stay regulated themselves, and help their children shine. We were lucky enough to see that modeled every day. 

Even while juggling a 4.0 in night classes at Hopkins, she showed up calm and focused. She kept her personal life separate from our household life, which mattered more than I realized at the time. 

I would trust Alexa with my children all over again, and I’d be grateful for the chance to learn from her myself. "
