Janet

Janet Natoli lives in Nesconset, New York with her husband, Larry, and their two
children, Zachary and Jessica. They adopted their son from Bucharest, Romania in
2000. Their daughter was adopted from Pleven, Bulgaria in 2006.

Janet has a Master's Degree from the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
She worked in banking for twelve years, leaving a position in management training
prior to her son's adoption. She also worked with learning disabled children for two
years. After the adoption of Zachary, she worked for an adoption agency for four
years, assisting families with international adoptions, as well as compiling dossiers.

Janet has been to Romania once and to Bulgaria three times. She visited Bulgaria
with her husband twice during the course of their daughter's adoption. It was
spending time in an orphanage setting that made Janet realize that she needed to
do something for the children left behind. She could not just walk away. It was this
that inspired her to form Love's Hope International with her close friend, Nicole
Kenny.

Janet's personal interests include reading, skiing, photography, travel and spending
time with family.
