About

The Blog
Momtroopers is all about the intersection of teaching and motherhood. I’m Katrina and I play the role of Mama to my two kids and Teacher Kat to my students. Just like you, I am also going through the many challenges of being a Mama- the never-ending Frozen marathons, the struggle to resist their cuteness or to be patient every time they say “no!” and the need for the extra energy boost for playtime while maintaining a home. Which is why I like to surround myself with curious, compassionate and humble Mamas out there who also serve as my reminder that You’re already doing better than you think you are, Trooper Mama.

And that is why you drop by Momtroopers. It was built to share creative and practical tips that are highly effective to teaching and parenting.  It is a tool to reach out (and rant) to other moms who are also in the first few years of motherhood. This blog aims to connect with moms who are looking for trusted resources- from beauty, home, to parenting and even kids’ schooling. It’s a place where moms significantly learn practical ways to manage family life, choosing the more practical options, without sacrificing quality. Let Momtroopers help you in building a home filled with hope and creative ideas.

She also created Nylon Kids-an arts and crafts activity provider for children’s parties. She is a regular contributor to Smart Parenting and lifestyle editor of Taste Company. Endlessly curious, she continues to find fun and entertaining activities that homeschoolers like her would love to try out in their own home. Currently, she is homeschooling her toddler daughter and is still busily breastfeeding her son.
