Homeless mother narrates how Alexis Sky saved her and her child from the streets
A mother who was rendered homeless last week after unforseen circumstances befell her all at once, got an angel of help in the form of Alexis Sky and she took to Instagram to narrate how Alexis found her and her baby and took them off the streets.
Reality star, Alexis Sky, 25, said she was in her car, going for breakfast, when she saw some homeless people on the street. She began handing out money then saw a woman and her baby boy. Alexis asked the woman what she needed and when she told her, Alexis was about to drive off to get the things for her, but she changed her mind and decided to do something even better.
Alexis said she wanted to ask if she could take the woman’s son but was scared to. So she asked someone to ask on her behalf. The helpless mother obliged and Alexis took the boy named Omari with her, gave him a bath, fed him, then she got him and his mother a nice hotel to stay in for a few days.
The child’s mother took to Instagram to share the story and praise Alexis for her kindness. She also narrated how she ended up on the streets. She ended by saying that she now has a place to stay, thanks to Alexis, and she has a job now.

I’m still trying to wrap my head around everything. I’m so open and honest about my struggles. And lately things have been very hard. I’m a single parent and I had NO JOB. I have been trying as HARD as I can! I got evicted from my apartment Friday with no where to go! I rarely talk to my family or have real friends so I had NO support system. By the time I picked my son up from daycare, all the shelters had no vacancy and weren’t accepting intake until Monday morning. I sat outside of Atlanta Union Missions Women and Childrens Day Shelter feeling defeated. I talk alot of positivity but at the end of the day Im HUMAN with emotions. I told myself that in order to not slip into a darker depression I had to change the way I was thinking or viewing the situation. Along with those positive thoughts negative came too, like you’re a bad mother and you are a bad person and no one would love you enough to help you. I still made sure to not let those negative thoughts overpower me . The first miracle was an older woman who slept outside for years had a brand new cot and kids blanket. I never saw a bed out there before! She was so nice to me despite her mental state. And the weather was not bad, honestly I believe my son thought we were camping out. We were always home in my apartment since he was born. Now Sunday is here. I’m feeling better because Monday is around the corner. I prayed to God and left it there. Alot of different organizations were pulling up giving us food, toiletries, and etc. I even got a brand new tent for the night. A car pulls up and a lady rolls down the window. At first, honestly I thought, she is really pretty. Then I realized , it was @alexisskyy_ . She saw my son and I think she sympathized and was concerned for him. At first she offered to buy him what he needed diapers milk etc. Then she smiled and was like” Can I take him?” I just felt a rush of relief. And usually my son is glued to my side but I knew I could trust her. I just couldnt stop crying. She did what she said she would and more. I have a hotel now and I found a job today. And orientation tomorrow. Angels do exist. Thank you Alexis. I can never repay you. #alexisskyy
