Mrs Nellie
Founder
For more than 18 years, I have dedicated my life to nurturing and educating young children, beginning with the founding of my first bilingual nursery and later, an elementary school. My passion for early childhood development was deeply influenced by my mother, who devoted her entire career to working with children. Her guidance taught me some of the most important lessons I still carry today.
As a parent myself, I understand firsthand the importance of raising children. My personal journey raising my own son, who is now 25, along with the many children I’ve had the privilege of guiding over the years, has reinforced my belief that love is at the heart of everything. Love is the foundation upon which all successful education is built.
Music has always been a central part of my life. I graduated from a music school and later a music academy, specialising in playing the flute and directing children’s performances. Knowing the profound impact that music can have on a child’s development, it’s no surprise that music plays a significant role at SmileOn. It is a priority in our nursery because I’ve seen firsthand how it enhances children’s learning and emotional growth.
In addition to my background in music, I hold a master’s degree in child psychology, which has given me the opportunity to collaborate with some of the best experts in the field. This knowledge has been invaluable in working with both children and parents, helping to support each child’s unique developmental needs. My experiences have taught me that raising and educating children is one of the most important responsibilities we have. Our future depends on the way we nurture the next generation, and I believe that, as parents and educators, we must lead with love, dedication, and care.
At SmileOn, we are committed to creating a nurturing environment where children feel supported and inspired every day. Our goal is to help them grow into confident, compassionate, and capable individuals, ready to shape a bright future for themselves and the world around them.
