About Me
Hi, I’m Trena Gomez!
I am a mother of 4 amazing children. My husband Abraham and I were married summer 2020. I have had an educational, fun daycare for 18 years now. My family and I moved into Montgomery in 2010 and we just love this neighbourhood! It’s such a safe community, it kind of feels like a small town. Just down the street there is a fun little park and a large play field. My children often play here, enjoying all of the seasons!
I absolutely love children and believe they learn so much when they are young. They need to be in a safe home like environment to thrive, while they are away from their parents. I make healthy meals and snacks and have structured activities mixed with unstructured ones. Being creative and learning how to be a team player are important to learn at a young age, along with being able to have some independence. I believe each child and their parents are different and will try to meet everyone’s needs. Children need good role models to teach them values and respect of themselves and others. I love knowing that I can be a part of that!
If you think we could be a fit please contact me, I would love to meet you and your little one.
As of August 1, 2016 we are a Licensed Group Family Childcare Home!
