Miss Elly




Hi my name is Elly Harkey.  I am the teacher in the Dragons, school age classroom.  I see them everyday when they get off the bus, help them with homework, enjoy having conversations and playing with them.  I look forward to our summer together where we will be able to have fun and exciting things to do all day.

I am currently taking college courses in the education field.  I live in Coal Valley with my boyfriend and I enjoy spending time with friends and family.

Hi, I’m Darci McLaughlin. I am Charger Child Care’s Assistant Director and I am also the teacher of the 2 – 3 year olds. I have been with Charger Child Care since September 2011. I graduated from Cambridge High School and then attended Black Hawk College for two years, and graduated with my Associate Degree in Early Childhood Development.  In 2008 I moved to the Sherrard area, and in 2009 I married Doug McLaughlin. In 2011 we bought a house in New Windsor where we currently live with our two children. I started working in child care in 2008. Since then I have worked with infants, toddlers and school age children, both as a teacher and an assistant director. I enjoy the busyness of the classroom and environment, and meeting all of our local families.
