My Work

Montessori at Home

With over 30 years of experience, from parent and sub to school director, I have been there and done that. I made a course for parents teaching their children at home. After the course, participants have the option for ongoing support with parent mentoring at a 10% discount.

About Me

I’m Jana. I started my Montessori journey in 1990, and I’m still in classrooms everyday. Along the way I picked up experience in all areas of running a Montessori School. My own children attended Montessori from 18m- though high school and both of my children work in Montessori schools, as does my husband and sister. My grandchildren attend Montessori as well, so I’ve experienced every facet of a Montessori journey.

As a life long learner, I continuously seek to learn more and do better. I have a Master’s in Montessori, earned Indiana state licensure with a reading specialist endorsement, Montessori Applied to Children at Risk (MACAR), to name a few of my additional certifications and qualifications. I’ve been a teacher, administrator, director, teacher trainer, and head of a MACTE accredited training center. You can see my CV for my other experiences and achievements.

When I’m not reading or talking about Montessori, you’ll find me outside gardening, camping or sitting on the beach.
