Dear Preschool Families,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Nicole Volk, most call me Nikki. I am excited to introduce myself as the new Community and Parent Involvement Specialist, as well as the Preschool Intervention and Referral Specialist.

I graduated from Georgian Court University in 2019 obtaining my Master's in Education with a School Counseling Certification. My professional journey began as a Crisis Intervention Specialist with Mobile Response Services, where I provided in-home support to families, as well as assisting them with resources within the community. Subsequently, I transitioned into the role of Guidance Counselor, until joining Eatontown Public Schools.

I reside in Toms River with my three daughters-Emma, Mia, and Lina-along with our Yorkie, "Junior", and our kitten, "Lily". Our family is quite active, particularly with cheerleading! We love all things Disney and frequently visit! I truly cherish the time spent with my daughters and eagerly anticipate returning home to them each and every day.

My passion for helping children and families, has been motivation for being in this field of work. I am committed to treating every child with the same care and respect that I would extend to my own. I aim to educate and support families in any way I can, including but not limited to guiding them towards appropriate resources.

I feel incredibly fortunate to be a part of Eatontown Public Schools and am enthusiastic about collaborating with all of you to foster an inclusive and supportive environment for our families and students.

Warm regards,
Nicole "Nikki" Volk, M. Ed
