At Daily Balanced Care, our mission is rooted in empowering older adults and their caregivers to navigate daily life with confidence and ease. Every piece of advice, every technique, and every product recommendation is focused on three essential pillars:

It's wonderful that you're here!
Hi, I’m Alexa, the woman behind Daily Balanced Care. I’m a proud wife to a wonderful husband and mom to two perfect, lively boys. Family means everything to me, and much of my journey has been shaped by the deep caregiving roles within my own family.
I’ve been a licensed Occupational Therapist for almost 15 years, working closely with older adults in skilled nursing facilities, hospitals, assisted and independent living communities, outpatient clinics, and in-home care. Alongside my professional experience, I’ve also been a caregiver for several loved ones. Growing up, I watched my incredibly kind mother care for her own parents with patience and grace. These experiences shaped not only how I work but why I do this work.
Being both a clinician and a caregiver has given me rare insight into what people truly need. I’ve seen the limitations of the healthcare system, the daily challenges families face, and how much support is missing once you leave the clinic or hospital. I also know that the right education and tools can turn stress into confidence.
That’s why I created Daily Balanced Care, to bridge the gap between clinical advice and real-life solutions. Through practical resources and simple, effective strategies, I support both caregivers and individuals in building safer, more functional, and more empowering daily routines.
Whether you’re caring for someone or navigating your own needs as you age, I’m here to help. My heart is in this work, and it’s my mission to make caregiving easier, self-care more achievable, and life less overwhelming for everyone involved.
Real words from caregivers and families I’ve supported.
"Finally, someone who gets it."
"I was feeling completely overwhelmed caring for my mom after her fall. The AMA call gave me real answers I could use right away, plus, just having someone listen and understand meant more than I can explain. This support is life changing."
- Jennifer M., Caregiver
"I loved spending time with Alexa"
“I wasn’t sure how much someone could really help at my age, but Alexa showed me ways to make small changes that made a big difference. I’m moving easier, feeling better, and staying independent.”
- Joy M., Past Client
"We shared many laughs"
“We worked with Alexa over a year ago and we still use the routines and tools she gave us. She was kind, knowledgeable, and truly cared about my dad’s quality of life.”
- Patricia R., Caregiver
"Alexa listened to me the way no one else would"
“I had no idea how much I didn’t know about helping my mom stay safe and independent. Alexa walked us through everything with patience and practical advice. She was a lifeline during a really overwhelming time.”
- Cindy J., Caregiver
"Helped me recover faster after knee replacement"
"Before surgery, I followed Daily Balanced Care’s pre-op exercise program to build strength and feel prepared. It made a huge difference. My recovery was smoother, faster, and less painful than friends who didn’t do the same.
The 4 and 8 week upgrades kept me moving forward, and I gained confidence week by week. I’ve used other services since then, and every one has been incredibly helpful."
- Richard S., Client
