Shanda Ditlev

Shanda Ditlev, our new Mops coodinator, resides in Manchester. She has two children, Ana is 3 and Jacob is 19 months. Shanda and her husband, Jon, have been married for 4 years. When asked what she loves most about MOPS, Shanda replied, “Everything, what's not to love?! The fellowship, the food, the informative speakers, and the crafts, of course. I love the community that is built in MOPS, we are all mothers and we all love our children.

Her hobbies include: reading, scrapbooking, cooking, but most of all- spending time with her husband. Where is her favorite place in the world to be? “There are two places that come to mind for me.. Jon and I had our honeymoon on Paradise Island in the Bahamas, and we stayed at a resort called Atlantis. The second place is a little town called Grand Marais in northern Minnesota. My family spends a week there each October. We stay in this cozy cabin which is just footsteps away from Lake Superior. There are no televisions there, only my family and the fireplace. “
