Alex knew she wanted to be a certified occupational therapist assistant after being included in therapy sessions with her brother, who has a learning disability and auditory processing disorder. She has been a certified occupational therapy assistant (COTA) for over 5 years. She worked in outpatient pediatrics for four years and has worked in the school system for over a year.
Alex is the second born of 7 kids. In her free time, she loves socializing and planning game nights with friends and family, playing sports, and reading. One of her greatest passions, is missionary work to serve God and others over seas. She has been to Jamaica, where she shared the Gospel and worked with elementary kids in Jamaican schools. She has also been to Guatemala and volunteered at a family-run orphanage that cares for over 30 kids! She is a Christian and loves the Lord dearly. None of this would be possible without Him.
Alex's role is to oversee CFK, complete free home observsation visits, and complete the treatment of any kiddos that come through Caring for Kids Pediatrics.

Meet Jamie! She has years of experience including nursing, scheduling, finances, and human relations. She will be managing scheduling and the business organization.
Jamie is Alex's mom and one of the primary reasons that CFK exists. She has quite a bit of experience when it comes to children with disabilities. Jamie identified that her son had a disability and had to advocate for him, in order to receive the appropriate services to best meet his needs. She understands, better than anyone, the struggle to get your child the help you know they need. She also understands the exhaustion to work alongside your child to help them adjust to the world around them. As the parent to a child with a disability, she is a great resource!
Jamie is mom to seven biological children and fosters her husband's niece. She loves spending time with her family and would love to have them around every minute of the day. In addition to doing anything with her family, she loves studying, playing with her french bulldogs, and tending to her chickens whom she affectionally calls her "girls".
