Founded in 2009 by Andri Kyriakidou, and run today together with her family.
Our Story
A Nursery Built on Family and Passion
Saint Panteleimon Nursery School was founded in 2009 by our Owner and Manager, Andri Kyriakidou, whose passion for working with and educating young children has always been at the heart of the nursery.
What began with Andri's passion for the Early Years has grown into something that now involves her whole family. Today, Andri works alongside her children, and together they work hard every day to make the nursery the very best it can be for the children and families who place their trust in us.
For Andri, one of the things she is most proud of is seeing her own passion for the Early Years passed on to her children. What started as her vision has become a shared family commitment to giving young children the happiest and strongest possible start to their educational journey.
For our family, the nursery is much more than a business or simply a place of work. It is a huge part of our lives. We genuinely care about the children who come through our doors and always strive to provide the very best for every individual child.
Working in Early Years takes dedication, patience, hard work and a willingness to constantly reflect and improve. We know there is always more we can learn and more we can do, which is why we continue to work together every day to make our nursery the best it can be.
Above everything else, we really care. We want every child to feel happy, safe, valued and excited to learn, and to leave us with wonderful foundations for the next stage of their educational journey.
This nursery is our family's life and passion, and we wouldn't change it for the world.
Our Nursery School operates at the rear of St. Panteleimon Church.

Continuing What Andri Started
Andri created the nursery from her passion for Early Years. That passion has now been passed on to her children, and today they work together to continue what she started.

With a background in Chemistry with Biomedicine and a Master’s in Clinical and Therapeutic Neuroscience, I never imagined I’d become an early years teacher. What began as helping in our family-run nursery turned into something I genuinely enjoy, something I now feel deeply passionate about.
Working with young children is incredibly fulfilling. I’ve come to realise how important the early years are; this is when children are like sponges, absorbing everything around them. It’s a time when their experiences shape how they see the world and themselves.
Every day, I strive to make our nursery school the best it can be, whether that means improving the environment, training our staff, introducing new books and resources, refining our curriculum, or simply being there to support and encourage each child.
It’s a real privilege to be part of their early years, and I will always do my best to make sure every child has a happy and meaningful start to their learning journey.
Thank you to all our parents and carers for putting your trust in us. It means so much to be part of your child’s journey, and we never take that for granted.
