Moadon Yeladim, “Kids Club”, is Kavana’s after-school program for kids in K-5th grade (ages 6 to 11 years old). Blending elements of study and play, staff work to build a ‘summer camp’-like atmosphere. Programming is designed to foster a deeper sense of belonging and to build Jewish identity. Working to provide significant exposure to Hebrew and Judaics, each session includes playing together, eating together, and learning together through games, stories, arts and discussion. *Snack provided by Kavana

2025/2026 Program Dates:
Hadar A.
Hadar (she/her) is excited to join the Kavana family as an educator on the Moadon Yeladim team. Hadar is a licensed civil engineer and works at SDOT with the goal of making Seattle a safer place for those walking and biking. Outside of work, Hadar enjoys long distance running, cheering on the Seattle Storm, and exploring Washington with her fiancée MaryKate and their dog Charlie.
Yuli B.
Yuli is currently a junior at Lincoln High school in Wallingford. Last year, she spent a semester abroad in Israel! She has been a learner at Kavana since Middle School and is now a part of the High School cohort. Yuli enjoys spending time playing sports like softball and ultimate frisbee as well as running along the Burke Gilman trail. She also loves thrifting and jewelry making. She is excited to share her love of Judaism and finding community with the Moadon Yeladim kids!
Elena C.
Elena began exploring the Kavana kids and family programs when her daughter attended Tinker-Gan in 2023. She’s enjoyed participating in events with the vibrant Jewish community at Kavana, and is excited to share love of Judaism with the kids of Moadon Yeladim. At home, Elena is often found tinkering with all manner of objects around the house, or diving into amateur woodworking (she's still got all her fingers!) — she's always up for building something new and weird.
Morgan W.
Morgan is excited to be back for her third year teaching as part of the south-end Moadon Yeladim and Middle School Program teams. A Seattle native, Morgan has been involved in Jewish life through summer camps, youth groups (NFTY), and spent a semester in Israel in high school learning all about Jewish history. Getting to learn, teach, and build community with the Kavana community makes Wednesdays a highlight of her week. Outside of Kavana, Morgan works at Cancer Pathways as a program manager and educator. Morgan can often be found listening to an audiobook, trying out a new craft (currently it's embroidery), or playing with her very snuggly cat.
Maerav D.
Hi! My family and I have been involved with the Kavana community for many years, and this is my third year working at Moadon. This past year was my second summer as a camp counselor at the JCC. I love working with kids—it’s such a big part of my life and something that brings me a lot of joy. I’m a junior in high school who loves working out, trying new foods, swimming in the lake and ocean. You could always find me hanging out with friends, playing with my dog or listening to music in the car! Super excited to be back, excited for what this year brings.
Micah S.
Micah is a PhD student at the University of Washington working towards a degree in linguistics. He has a passion for languages and history. Prior to beginning his current program of study, Micah worked as a teacher in a small community in eastern Oregon. He is excited for the opportunity to share his enjoyment of learning with your students.
Susan T.
My name is Susan but I am more commonly known as Nonnie. I arrived in Seattle approximately 13 years ago from New York, 18 months after my first grandchild was born. It has been a terrific journey. When not baking challah and cookies, playing or teaching mahjong, or watching the Mariners with my husband you can find me with my grandchildren either here or in California. We like to swim, play ball and go on vacations together. Two summers ago we went to Greece to visit my father’s place of birth, Ionnina. I love working with families and I am looking forward to spending time with the Kavana families.
Talia T.
Talia has been a member of the Kavana community on and off for over 10 years. She likes playing guitar, watching horror movies, and learning about Jewish history.
Alphie A.
Alphie is a Junior at Lincoln High School and is thrilled to be working in an official teaching position! He has been attending Kavana's programming for his whole life (you probably know his mom!), and has volunteered at Kavana over the last 3 years. He also works with kids in several other contexts, including through an internship with the Adaptive and Inclusive Movement (AIM). Outside of his participation in Kavana and work with kids, he does theater and dance, and if he's not doing one of those things, he's probably crocheting. He's excited to bring both his positive energy and his Jewish knowledge into Moadon!
Mia P.
Hi, my name is Mia and I grew up here in Kavana. I am in 10th grade at the Northwest School. I love singing, doing 1000-piece puzzles, and acting in musical theater productions. I'm looking forward to teaching Moadon for the first time this year and getting to know all of the kids and families.
