Annie Strasser

Hello there! My name is Annie Strasser. I attended Brigham Young University-Idaho where I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Child Development. I love teaching children and helping others learn more about children. A lot has changed since college. I have a family of my own now. I’m married and have two daughters, one is three and the other is one. I also am pregnant with my third child. Life is great and I wouldn’t change a thing! Having a role in a child’s life is very important! Never take for granted the impact you can have on them. But helping a child to grow and nurturing them can be a big task, I have been in your shoes and I know that when we have the right education and tools it can make a big difference.
