Natalie was born and raised in Ukraine, where she began working with children as a Teacher’s Aide at the local kindergarten and found a passion for nurturing child development. That passion followed her as she immigrated to Israel, where she had the great opportunity to learn about the country’s rich culture and language. After living in Israel for six years, she immigrated to the United States, where she was able to obtain an Associate’s Degree in Child Development while working at Ramaz Dayschool. Natalie has over 18 years of experience working with children and is thrilled to be part of the JCC Brooklyn team!!
