Our Teachers

Pamela Hinson, Owner

Twenty-seven years ago, Pamela established her home daycare to actively participate in her daughter’s upbringing. In the process, she served as a Girl Scout troop leader for a decade and a youth developmental specialist for six years. Three years ago, she earned her National CDA and launched a large home daycare named Building Blocks to Learning LLC. Her growth continued as she achieved accreditation and the gold seal two years ago. Currently, she is a lead mentor with ELC, guiding others in starting their home daycares, and serves on the advisory committee of the Pinellas County Licensed Board. Pamela is a proponent of the idea that a smaller learning environment lays the groundwork for children’s early development. Building Blocks to Learning boasts excellent teachers: Aldron Hinson, full-time, Kierra Keys, part-time, and Marcella Ruso, substitute, all equipped with training credentials, National CDA, School Readiness preservice training, and a shared zeal for child education.

Philosophy

At Building Blocks to Learning, we strive to create a safe and caring environment for children to learn and grow. Our philosophy is based on play, creative expression, and problem solving. We believe that when children are truly engaged with their environment, anything is possible. Our team of passionate, experienced, and compassionate teachers create an innovative space for children to explore and express their own ideas to foster their engagement.

Location

We are located off US 19 near Wal-Mart, south of Twin Brooks Gulf Course in St. Petersburg.
