Miah shares her love for gardening and her life as a SAHM on her instagram @miahinreallife! Here, she shares a bit more about what babywearing means to her in her everyday life and how it intersects with her love for gardening!
How did you learn about babywearing?
It’s something that I have seen since long before I got pregnant. I learned about the different types of hearing from the Internet and social media so many different ways to add babywearing into your life.
What does babywearing mean to you?
Honestly, maybe wearing has giving me a sense of freedom during Postpartum time. I find myself saying yes to more things because I know my baby going to be snuggly and close to me, but I still get the full function of my hands. I think back to my ancestors and really feel connected to them when I babywear,
I feel that it is something that I was always meant to do with my children.
How has being a parent changed you?
What’s your biggest parenting tip at this stage?
To trust your intuition and stop comparing your child to other children, everybody grows a little differently and that’s OK!
What has been your experience gardening with a little ones?
Gardening with little ones can be difficult Depending on the size of your garden, Gardens need it taken care of just like another family member in your home, However it is some of the most rewarding things to show your children where food comes from.
When I don’t babywear in the garden I find myself getting significantly less done! So baby Wearing is my number one tool for gardening!
What would you tell a busy mom thinking about starting a garden?
Do it! There is nothing like having the peace in knowing that there is food in the backyard for your family. Babywearing is what makes tending to my garden easy with little ones! He knows the first thing we do in the morning is put on the carrier and check the garden!
It makes it very easy to maintain your garden knowing that you have both hands and your child is secure and safe right next to you and is experiencing life right alongside of you!
