My name is Amber Stevens and I’m a Californian transplanted in Georgia.  I was born and raised in rural Central California.  My hometown of Newman, has a sneaky resemblance to Mayberry, and has most of the residents are cows rather than people.  Most people don’t picture California this way, and my husband was one of them.  He was surprised by the humbleness of Newman.

In my day to day life, I wear many hats…I’m a servant to Christ, a wife and mother, a teacher, a business owner of Heavenly Hold, and a blogger!  My relationship with Christ is my first priority.  He is my all and sustains me through each day.  I love being a wife and mother.  Since I was a little girl, I knew that I would play these roles and it’s very fulfilling.

I’m extremely passionate about babywearing (the topic of my blog).  Most people are unfamiliar with the term (including me, until I became a mom) and find it a strange word.  Babywearing is simply carrying your baby in a sling or carrier and having your hands free.  I began researching babywearing when my daughter was a few months old.  I had gotten a DVT (blood clot) in my leg after delivering her and was unable to get around very easily for more than a month.  Pair that trial, with a baby that constantly wanted to be held and you’ll understand why my back and neck were strained!  I learned that there are a multitude of benefits to wearing your baby.  Some of these benefits include having a happier, smarter and healthier baby, plus a happier mama since she has her hands free!

Babywearing and being a mom is the topic of my blog, Babywearing Buzz.  I chose the topic of babywearing to help educate more moms on the topic and to open them up to the possibility of wearing their little ones.  I also cover topics related to mothering such as nursing and my day to day life with children.  My blog is intended to be a friendly way to communicate and meet new friends online as well as share my learning experiences.  I also use it to learn new things, as I am a first time mom that certainly doesn’t know everything!

I look forward to meeting and sharing with my new readers at HerProBlog.COM.  I hope you’ll be able to learn something from me, and I from you!
