Meet the Founder
In Montessori pedagogy, a teacher is called a Directress, because she directs the children in their own learning.
Ms. Žaneta is a Montessori Elementary Directress, nanny, governess, and children's mindfulness facilitator. She has a heartfelt desire to serve and support children as they grow into their full expression.
Aligning with Dr. Maria Montessori's philosophy, Žaneta emphasizes the crucial role of adults in preparing an environment that fosters children's natural process of learning and discovery.
Integrating 16 years of experience in childcare and education, Žaneta created the Cosmic Citizens Club to take Dr. Montessori's philosophy beyond the classroom.
Our Values
At the core of the Cosmic Citizens Club lies the belief that children possess all they need to develop and thrive: curiosity, playfulness, creativity, and wonder. That's why the Great Stories are expertly crafted to ignite and nurture these innate qualities, guiding them toward the marvels of the natural world.
Our aim isn't just to convey knowledge but to inspire children to connect deeply with their cosmic home. To achieve this, we've updated and adapted Dr. Montessori's Cosmic Education to facilitate intellectual and embodied engagement of all senses and faculties.
Each story thoughtfully balances the amount of information children take in with opportunities to discover and create.
Your child will be enthralled by the beauty of our cosmos, and through their interaction with these stories, be empowered with the knowing that they belong here, and that they too can impact and contribute to the beauty of our cosmic home.

Great Stories
A Series for the Homeschooling Family
Set along a dramatized narrative that initiates at the Big Bang, this series of impressionistic stories ignites a sense of wonder in children, granting them understanding and appreciation for the interconnectedness of all things. This is a Deep Time, Big History perspective on the evolution of the universe itself.
Embedded within these inspiring stories is an interdisciplinary, systems approach to cosmology, geography, evolutionary biology, anthropology, history, linguistics, and mathematics.
Each of the five Great Stories is covered over 6 in-person presentations one week apart, with science experiments, beautiful materials, artistic demonstrations, and hands-on projects to build your child's concrete understanding of these abstract and larger-than-life concepts.
However, the purpose is not just to convey factual information but to spark your child's curiosity and encourage further exploration and study. Your child will be offered opportunities and guidelines for additional study in between sessions.
Human history is seen as part of the history of our Earth and biosphere, and the Earth’s history, in turn, is seen as part of the history of the Universe. In this way, the different disciplines that make up this large story can be used to illuminate each other. The unified account of the past assembled in this way can help us understand our own place within the Universe.
