About Alexus

Experience: 10 yrs

My name is Alexus, and I'm a 30-year-old educator, mom, and passionate caregiver. I'm a proud graduate of Bowie State University with a B. S. in Early Childhood and Special Education, and I'm currently pursuing my master's degree to become a certified Reading and Math Instructional Specialist. I currently teach 2nd grade at a DC Public School and have over 10 years of experience working with children-as both a dedicated nanny and an educator. I absolutely love working with kids and have the joy of raising a bright and beautiful 8-year-old of my own. Over the past five years in the classroom, I've been recognized for my success in improving student performance, including through state-wide data scores. I specialize in helping young learners build strong reading and math foundations-and have successfully moved students up to two grade levels beyond where they began. Watching children grow in confidence and skill is what fuels my passion every day.

Alexus cared for my almost two year old for two 10 hour days while I worked in the area and did a great job. She was very punctual and knowledgeable about caring for a child his age. She even brought toys for him to play with, which was very helpful because we were visiting from out of town. I will definitely contact her the next time I am in the area and need childcare.
