About Me & The Blog

About The Author

Hey guys, I’m Eryka!

My husband and I are raising our girl Izzy in upstate SC. I was born and raised in Maine.

Busy Little Izzy was started because I wanted to share baby/kids educational activities and products that I found made motherhood easier. It obviously has morphed into so much more over this past decade.

I am a former special education teacher and Birth Through Five Education major, with a certification in K-5th grade general education and special education.

I use to share mostly our favorite places to travel (which includes lodging and food), tips on how we enjoy travel with our child, educational supports and activities, favorite fashions and shops, home decor, recipes and more.

The blog has changed as Izzy and I have grown and changed. As a family we talk emotions, feelings, and wellness. We are always learning about products, toxins and how to achieve our best mental and physical wellness. We hope you enjoy following along our journey.

I share product swaps, recipes, gardening and so much more!

If you are looking to start your wellness journey, I highly recommend you start with my Kitchen Swaps or Bathroom Swaps blog post. Be sure to follow us along on Instagram for more info daily!
