  • Business Owner & ECE

    Marella was inspired by her own three children's growth, which started when her first son was born, and mom and son shared their first special home on Bellevue. Since then she has grown in her passion to nurture children in curiosity, creativity and compassion.

    In 2019, Marella earned her Early Years Education diploma and has been running a licensed childcare center “Sweet Cherry Blossom Daycare”since 2018.

    Marella's journey led her to the Montessori Method, which was sparked by the positive impact it had on her son in a private Montessori school. In 2023, she became a certified Montessori Teacher and proudly opened Blossoms@Bellevue Academy, a Montessori program that that is based on self-directed activity, hands-on learning and collaborative play.

    Her dedication and expertise ensure a nurturing and educational environment for your child's early development.
