Sue Lackhouse, Return to top of Page

Teacher and Teacher's Aide
I work with the pre-school children and help prepare them for Kindergarten. I love to spend time with my family. We go boating in the summer, garden, do yard work, and just spend time outdoors together. We also enjoy playing games, martial arts, and crafts. My husband Gary and I have two children: Kasi and Jason.

Melissa Morley,

Office Administrator
I am usually the first person that our families meet. I began my career at Little Lambs in 2003 as a Teacher's Aide, but took on more and more responsibilities when the Director at that time began to cut back her hours. My responsibilities include all registration and financial records, keeping current files on all our students, and assisting our Director as needed. As a certified food handler, I can often be found assisting with lunch. I love greeting each child every day. I also love the time that I spend with my family, two cats and Golden Retriever. My girls keep me busy with their many activities, and we attend services at Trinity where I am a member of the choir.

Christine Hartfelder,

Director
My day-to-day responsibilities at Little Lambs are varied and can include working on building issues, organizational and staffing related duties, and program development. My favorite daily activities are those related directly to the children, such as teaching the five year old Little Lambs class and leading our Little Lambs Chapel time. Before coming to Trinity, I was in retail management, and I absolutely love that I am now in a position to aid in the development of young children while sharing the love of our savior with them and their families. I also love spending time with my family and being outside gardening and hiking

Lisa Wright,

Teacher
My background is in daycare, and I have fun working on art projects, playing games, reading books, telling stories and singing songs with our little lambs. I love spending time with my family and enjoy doing things outside, like walking, fishing, camping, swimming, biking and gardening. I am married with one 12-year old child.

Tammy Littleton,

Teacher's Aide and Counselor
My position at Little Lambs consists of playing with our pre-school students and assisting at project time, large motor outside or gym time, hand washing line-up and snack time. I am also responsible for sending home projects and other correspondence. Before coming to Little Lambs, I worked at a library and as a playground supervisor. Aside from my job, my passions are listening to music, writing, gardening and reading the Sunday Tribune. I am married with two children: Leah is a senior at Eastern Illinois University, and Lance is a senior at Grant Community High School.

Jodi Herrington,

Teacher's Aide
I do whatever is needed in the classrooms. Typically, I get projects and games together for the children. I have fifteen years of daycare experience, and worked at Prime Time Day Care before coming to Trinity. I love to spend time with my family and friends, and am happily married with two boys.

Jennifer L'Heureux,

Lead Teacher
My students call me Mrs. L. I currently teach the 3 and 4-year old preschool class as well as the Kids Klub children. Before coming to Trinity, I worked in a daycare in Michigan. I enjoy hiking, camping, and just about anything outdoors. I also like playing board games, doing puzzles and going to Wolves hockey games.
