About · Founder & Play Coach

Hi, I'm Alexa.

I'm a sensory play teacher, homeschool mom of two, and the creator of the play-based method behind everything here. For 20+ years I've helped kids learn the way they're actually built to — through play. With a 20K+ community and a feature on PBS Kids South Florida, my mission is simple: show you that teaching at home can be joyful, low-pressure, and full of play.

You don't need to be a teacher. You just need a place to begin.

My story

I grew up thinking I was dumb.

School measured the things I wasn't — neat handwriting, sitting still, the right answer on the worksheet — and missed the things I was. My creativity didn't count for anything in that system, so I decided I simply wasn't smart.

It took until college, studying advertising, for someone to finally measure what my brain could actually do. I graduated with honors and won the best portfolio award — and for the first time, the system told me I was good at something. That gap — being the kid school gave up on, then becoming the adult who refused to give up on other kids — is the spine of everything I've built since.

What I believe

Play isn't the opposite of learning. It's the delivery system.

Every program I teach is the thing I wish someone had handed me as a kid: permission to learn by playing. You don't need to be a teacher. You don't need a Pinterest-perfect setup. You need a simple plan — and permission to keep it light.

These days

Where I am now

Today I homeschool my 8-year-old, still teach my two weekly classes, and still have to relearn my own lesson on the hard days — because knowing better and doing better under exhaustion are two very different things. That mom, on that day, is exactly who I make everything for.
