Nellie was born to Han and Alice Lam. Both her parents were squibs, cast out from their families for their lack of magical ability. They were loving parents, fawning all over Nellie and later her twin siblings, Micah and Mika. There was nothing particularly abnormal about Nellie's early years, at least not for a muggle child. Nellie, though she was always a quiet child, had no issues making friends. Her neighbor, Elizabeth, quickly became her closest friend. She would tell her everything. That is, she would tell her everything until now.

The Lam children were raised to believe magic was a thing of fairy tales, existing only in stories. Han and Alice would later claim that they saw no reason to make the children aware of another world in which neither believed they would ever again be a part of. Having convinced themselves that their offspring would not have magical abilities, either, they were surprised the afternoon the family got home from work and school to see an owl perched on the flower box outside their living room window with Nellie's invitation to Hogwarts.

Nellie was lucky in that, while occasionally difficult, her parents fully support her entrance into the wizarding world. When she received a letter from her maternal grandparents, they left it up to their young daughter to decide how to proceed. She replied. She then also reached out to her paternal grandparents, as well. Up until this point, there have been a few letters exchanged, but not much beyond that.
