About Ckids Afterschool
Our mission at CKids Afterschool is to create a safe and positive environment where children can explore the beauty and wonder of Judaism. We welcome both children and parents into a community that fosters meaningful and authentic Jewish experiences. Together, we build a supportive family atmosphere where everyone is encouraged to learn, discover, and embrace their Jewish identities and futures.
To ensure an engaging and memorable experience, we offer a range of exciting, fun, and hands-on activities for kids. Through our programming and events, CKids provides a space where both children and parents can develop their sense of self, community, and friendships. We celebrate each child's unique qualities and believe that curiosity is essential, encouraging every question. This approach ensures a strong future of Jewish continuity where each child takes great pride in their heritage.
The Directors
Rabbi Levi and Moussia Shaw serve as the new directors of Ckids Afterschool and are committed to ensure that every single child who attends the afterschool has a positive, safe, and joyful experience. The Shaws are driven by the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s teachings and genuine love for every Jew combined with a vision to reveal the innate goodness in all of humanity.
As long as Moussia can remember, Jewish schools and camps have been her happy place – from a young student all the way to a teacher in Center City Jewish Preschool and now as the Director of CKids Afterschool.
Rabbi Levi spent many summers serving as a counselor, head counselor, and director in Jewish day camps throughout the United States and Israel. Most recently, he taught Judaic studies in Brooklyn and served as the special education coordinator for a large Jewish day school. He is known for his infectious, positive energy and looks forward to bringing that energy and passion into the Afterschool program where all students and staff members are given the space, opportunities, and tools they need to thrive.
