Meet Darya
Hello everyone,
I am Darya, the CEO and founder of Chelsea Swim Spa, a swim school for children. I am also the excited founder of Chelsea Creperie, a coffee shop on Fulham Road. Additionally, I rent properties short-term for filming and advertising purposes. I organize monthly MasterMinds and events for entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs, focusing on practical hacks for business resilience. This is my portfolio thus far, but I have a few other exciting ideas in progress, such as a dog hotel, events, and training business.
Last but not least, I am a mother of three: two girls and a boy.
In 2021, I graduated from the 10K Small Businesses Growth Programme, a free program run by Oxford University and Goldman Sachs, which I highly recommend to anyone. I am also a business mentor for the ‘Help to Grow’ government program.
Currently, I am writing a book titled ‘The Immigrant Entrepreneur.’ This book shares the story of my journey to the United Kingdom, where I arrived with very basic English, without knowing anyone, and with barely enough money to survive for a few days. Despite these challenges, I managed to build several businesses from scratch, and I firmly believe that if I could do it, anyone can.
If you are seeking a business mentor or coach, or if you would like to join our Master Mind, please feel free to send me an email at darya@chelseaswimspa.co.uk
