Management

Anne Harrison, Director

eah7q@virginia.edu

I am originally from Gloucestershire, England. I graduated in Early Childhood Education from Gloucestershire College. In 1984 I moved to the United States. I have been working for the KLC/CCLC family of schools since January 1995, and have been a director since 1999. I have worked through the process of NAEYC Accreditation at all levels, and I enjoy the challenge of maintaining those standards on a daily basis as well as empowering our team to exceed them.

My husband and I have two beautiful daughters. Our dog and hamster complete our family. Away from work I enjoy spending time at home with my family and friends. I, also, love to read. My other spare time is taken up by either watching one daughter on the soccer field or the other one on the basketball court.

Taryn Evans, Assistant Director

I grew up on a large farm in rural Pennsylvania. Agriculture was very important to our way of life. I studied it throughout high school and graduated with a specialty in Horticulture. I earned my Bachelors of Science from Delaware Valley College with a degree in Secondary Education Agriculture. I have been working at the University of Virginia Child Development Center since 2006. It provides me the opportunity to link my personal love of agriculture with my passion of educating children.  I enjoy helping children discover the connection between agriculture and their daily lives.

I look at life as an adventure and I love seeing what the world has to offer.   My daughter became my little hero very early in her life and has taught me so much about who I am.  I enjoy fishing, boating, campfires, local history and above all, spending time with my daughter and husband on our little homestead.

Tammy Burdge, Assistant Director

I moved from Randolph, New Jersey to Charlottesville, Virginia in 2011. I have been in the childcare field since 1995 and worked with children of all ages. I started with KLC in 2006 first as a preschool teacher and now as assistant director of the Infant and Toddler Center. I worked with special needs children for six of those years.

I have my Associates Degree in Science with a concentration in Early Childhood Education from the County College of Morris and my Bachelor’s Degree in Organizational Management with a concentration in Early Childhood Education from Ashford University. I am near completion of my Masters Degree in Teaching with a concentration in Special Education from Liberty University.

My family consists of my mom, dad, sister, nephew and my dog. In my free time I like to go to the beach, watch movies and spend quality time with friends and family.
