Alexandria Tanski - Director
Alexandria Tanski graduated from the College of Saint Rose in 2012 with a degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education and has devoted her entire adult life to Early Childhood Education. Alexandria has worked in various childcare and school settings over the last fifteen years, including student teaching, volunteer work, instructing after school art classes, and teaching in day care centers.
In 2015, and with the help of her parents, Alexandria opened Little Achievers, a licensed Group Family Day Care, in Rotterdam. Six years later, she was given the opportunity to expand her program and open the day care center of her dreams with the help and encouragement of her business partner, Roxeanne Lansing.
Alexandria is highly committed to her calling in early childhood as she sees a need for children in Upstate New York to have a healthy environment with positive guidance. Her main goal is to create an atmosphere where parents can confidently leave their children, knowing they are in a safe and educational environment, allowing them to focus on all other daily life happenings.
Alexandria loves spending quality time with her new husband Eric, 10 year old godson Malachi, family, and friends. She looks forward to growing her family along with yours.
