About Us

I have been an educator for as long as I can remember.  I was the reliable, neighborhood babysitter, who was booked each weekend day and night from middle school through my college years where, it was only natural, I would graduate with a degree in Elementary Education.  From there I spent my summers and school years in various positions throughout schools in CT and MA. I worked as paraprofessionals and teacher assistants until I was hired in Springfield, MA as a 2nd grade teacher.  My teaching career grew over the next five years where I taught 2nd grade, 5th grade, was named the Math Dept head and sat on various leadership teams.My life drastically changed when I became a mom and chose to leave the classroom to fulfill my most important role, Mom. While being a mom I became obesessed with sensory play and the benefits my children gained because of the pinterest worthy sensory bins I would curate for them.It wasn't until a neighbor asked me to tutor their child when I realized how much I missed being in the classroom and that educator role. That's when I decided to take a leap of faith and combine my love for education and sensory play leading to the birth of Mrs. Gomes on the Go. I get to mesh my two favorite titles and educate children while having my own children by my side. I am currently a mobile business offering sensory play events throughout CT. There are multiple opportunities to attend a Mrs. Gomes planned event, or plan your own for a party or birthday!I have some big goals and am happy you are here to grow with me!
