Meet the Staff

Carol Anderson - Owner/Operator

Welcome to our Norwalk Childcare Center!

For over 12 years, my husband and I have owned and operated Tutor Time Child Care. Together since college where I earned a BS in Home Economics and Fashion Design, we worked for a time in New York City and then moved with our two boys to Connecticut about 20 years ago.

One of the reasons that led to our decision to open a Tutor Time Child Care Center was our very real difficulty as working parents looking for quality child care for our own children. With Tutor Time, we felt that no other program met the needs of parents with a safe secure environment, caring teachers, fantastic educational curriculum and hours that fit every schedule.

Now as onsite owners, we’re in our schools each week offering families the highest quality child care program that makes everyone – children, parents and teachers – happy.

Arthur Lungo – Owner /Operator

I gained appreciation for the role of teacher as well as educating children with my first job after college – as a junior high school math teacher. After that, for many years I put my BS in Business Management to good use working in New York City.

But once my family and I had moved to Connecticut, something became very evident: the area’s lack of a quality child care program with an educational curriculum that was also geared towards working parents. We discovered, though, that Tutor Time more than met those needs! And opening our own was an easy choice as it combined our love of teaching children with previous experiences to successfully operate a business that could provide the best service to families.

Now we work hard to keep everyone happy from children to parents and our staff. In fact, we’re delighted to note that many of our teachers have been with us for over 5 years – and a number have even earned a 10-year pin! We pride ourselves on an exceptional child care experience for families who choose Tutor Time.

Doris Quagliani – Area Director in Norwalk, Milford and Shelton

I am no stranger to what goes into child care and what should come out of it. For over 20 years I’ve worked in the field in Connecticut, but equally important, I’m the mother of five with almost all of them active in ice hockey!

Education and children have always been driving passions in my career, which includes a BS in Business Management and an Associates Degree in Early Childhood Education. I also hold a State of Connecticut Directors Credential and a Head Teacher Certification.

From the first day it opened, I have been a part of Tutor Time Norwalk. Now 12 years later, I’m still there and at our other two centers working with Directors and teachers to help bring our programs to life and ensure they run smoothly and effectively. One of the great joys of this job is continually hearing the results of our efforts by talking with parents about their children’s daily Tutor Time experiences. To me, every day is a fun day – and it’s especially true at Tutor Time!

Jennifer Clancy- Director

I’ve had the pleasure of working at Tutor Time for 5 years. Starting out as a Teacher in the Tutor Time Jr. Preschool Classroom soon I became the Head Teacher of the Pre-K Life Smart Program. After that I was promoted to Assistant Director. Each position helped me grow professionally in the field of Early Childhood Education and Administration. I am the Director and very proud of the education programs I facilitate at Tutor Time. I have taken Early Childhood classes at Norwalk Community College and I have my State of Connecticut Head Teacher Certificate. What I love best about working here is knowing that I help the parents feel confident in Tutor Time. If I am not at Tutor Time you can find me at the beach or on the boat! I enjoy spending time with my family. My favorite time of year is football season because I am a huge Dallas Cowboy fan and love going to games with my father!

Jo-Ann Figueroa- Assistant Director

I’ve been working here at Tutor Time for seven years. I started working as an afternoon assistant working in the Twaddler Classroom. During this time I was attending Norwalk Community College taking Early Childhood Education classes. I also attended the University of Connecticut and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Business and Technology. I am the Assistant Director at Tutor Time. I’ve had the most rewarding experiences working here. I enjoy overseeing the Life Smart and Start Smart Programs My favorite part of the curriculum is that it allows the children to excel in the areas they are most comfortable in. It’s amazing how the children play and learn in so many different ways. When I’m not at Tutor Time I am spending time with friends and family.

Jodi Jacobellis - Administrative Assistant

I have been working in the Early Childhood Education field for over 12 years. When I first joined Tutor Time in Norwalk I worked in the Infant Classroom and then was promoted to the position of Administrative Assistant. I am currently taking classes in Early Childhood Education. I enjoy being at Tutor Time and seeing the smiles on the children's faces when they feel it is a second home to them. It makes my job completely worthwhile! I was born in Stamford, CT and spend my spare time with my family mostly watching my young cousins play football and baseball. I am an animal lover with four dogs and one rabbit at home.
