Kelly Perez is the Vice President for Education at Smart Love Family Services and Director of The Natalie G. Heineman Smart Love Preschool. Since 2010, she has incorporated the Smart Love approach in all aspects of this progressive early childhood educational program. These include classroom design, curriculum, teacher training and mentorship programs, and parent education. Perez has spent 36 years in the field of early childhood education. Her efforts at the Smart Love Preschool have illustrated that the Smart Love approach not only enhances every child’s curiosity and love of learning but also promotes their cognitive and social-emotional potential through a unique understanding of child development and teachers who model compassion, care, and intellectual curiosity and create a warm, open relationship with each individual student. Perez holds a BA in applied behavioral science from National-Louis University and holds two American Montessori Society teaching credentials: Infant-Toddler (birth through age three) and Early Childhood (ages two-and-a-half through six). She was nominated for the 2017 Golden Apple Stanley C. Golder Leadership Award. Her professional affiliations include the National Association for the Education of Young Children and the Illinois Association for Infant Mental Health.
