How to unlock the Daedalian Keys quest?

The quest introducing you to the Daedalian Keys mechanic and collectible can be initiated by talking to Nellie Oggspire, right after getting back from your first visit to Hogsmeade (completing the Welcome to Hogsmeade quest). This female member of the Gryffindor house can be found in Transfiguration Courtyard in Hogwarts ( The Astronomy Wing larger area).
