Nicole is a bilingual school psychologist and mom of four with over 13 years of experience working with kids and families. Through her work in schools and her own parenting journey, she noticed something missing from many programs and supports—space for kids to grow through simple, meaningful play.

As parents, we’re always trying to give our kids well-rounded experiences that help them grow into confident, capable people. We often look to sports, clubs, or lessons to build those skills—but what if kids could get those same benefits in a different way? Not through structured performance or pressure, but through small group experiences that support social growth, confidence, and connection.

That’s why Nicole and her husband Alex created The Clubhouse Wellness Center—a place where kids can explore a wide variety of activities, from board games and STEM challenges to creative play and obstacle courses. But it’s not just about the activities—it’s about creating space for kids to problem-solve, collaborate, and build friendships in a low-pressure, high-support environment.

In today’s fast-moving world, technology makes interactions quick and convenient—but nothing replaces the value of face-to-face connection. The Clubhouse was built on the belief that kids grow best when they’re seen, supported, and given the chance to play and learn with others.

For Nicole, The Clubhouse is more than just a project—it’s a reflection of everything she believes about childhood and community. Every part of it was designed with intention, heart, and a deep understanding of what kids and families truly need to thrive.

Alex is a dad of four and a longtime youth coach who’s spent years helping kids build confidence, learn teamwork, and grow as leaders—on and off the field. He believes sports and play are some of the best ways to teach life lessons that truly stick.

He’s deeply involved in the local sports community, from recreational and travel soccer to ice hockey. Alex is an active member on boards for various local sports programs, combining his love for coaching with a strong commitment to building positive experiences for kids and families.

While his professional background is in construction and utilities, coaching has always been his passion. Known as “Coach Alex” to many local kids, he brings energy, structure, and steady encouragement wherever he goes. He’s all about showing up, leading by example, and helping kids feel proud of themselves.

As co-founder of The Clubhouse Wellness Center, Alex helps create a space where kids can be active, supported, and feel like they’re part of something special. Whether they’re here to play, build confidence, or just be themselves—he’s here for it.
