Hi! Iβm Elizabeth (Libby) Strahm. Iβm a nursing student at UAB, CPR and BLS certified, and I have several years of experience caring for children. I began babysitting at 14 and later spent summers nannying for a family in my neighborhood. I also worked as a nursing tech at Childrenβs of Alabama, where I gained valuable experience caring for children in a healthcare setting.As the oldest sister and cousin, Iβve always loved caring for kids and helping them learn and grow. In addition to babysitting, Iβve taught a kindergartenβ4th grade Sunday School class and have tutored students in math, so Iβm always happy to help with homework. Iβve cared for children ranging from 3 months old through middle school.I enjoy spending time outdoors, getting creative with activities, and encouraging minimal screen time whenever possible. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and caring environment where your children feel comfortable and parents have peace of mind. I would love the opportunity to care for your family!Side note: I am a UAB student but is does not show up on the Wyndy
