Ilana Blumsohn
LA jBabies Community Connector, City West
I’m so excited to be an LA jBabies Community Connector, and look forward to supporting you on your journey through parenthood!
Before becoming a mother last year, I was a social worker in the infant adoption and foster care world and worked in youth programming for Jewish nonprofits both in Los Angeles and on the East Coast.
When I’m not working or spending time with my son, I love playing piano, hiking, and hosting friends and family for Shabbat dinner and brunch. I also love connecting with my extended international family who live on five different continents!
LA jBabies was so supportive and nurturing for my husband and me as new parents, and I’m so excited to get to know you and to create a vibrant community together.
“My favorite PJ Library book is “One, Two, Three, Shabbat” by Naomi Shulman, which I read every Friday with my son. Shabbat is a very special time for my family, and I love that the story introduces my son to some of the same rituals we practice together every week. Even the dog resembles ours!”
We can’t wait to meet you.
People are at the heart of everything we do. Driven by relationships and powered by the Federation, our team works with shared purpose and values to create extraordinary community experiences.
