Karen
Ballard - Regional Director / Director
Karen Ballard is the Regional Director of The Learning Tree
Child Care Centers.
Karen began her career with The Learning Tree in August of
1998 as a Head Teacher in a toddler classroom. Her passion for early
childhood education was fueled in that class and her love for children and
their families grew. In June of 2002 she switched gears a bit and transferred
to The South Lyon Learning Tree as Director. It was as a Director that
she
became enthusiastic about watching children and teachers grow
and learn. In December of 2003 she was given the
opportunity to be Regional Director, overseeing the operations of all three
Learning Trees.
As Regional Director
she has the pleasure of traveling from
center to center throughout the week, talking with parents, training the
administration at each center and still finds time to do what
her heart loves
most- play with the children. She graduated from William
Tyndale College in December of 1998 with a degree in Early Childhood
Education and is continuing her education at Madonna University.
She looks
forward to being a part of each child’s early learning
experience and knows
that The Learning Tree is the perfect fit for you and your family.
