Leadership Team
Dr. Erika Hunt and Andrew Hunt
Owner/Operators
Dr. Erika and Andrew Hunt envisioned a meticulously-designed, loving, educational, and flexible care environment when creating the vision for Scribbles Center For Learning, Inc.

Prior to working in early education, Andy worked at State Farm Insurance in Bloomington. He studied both computer science and education and has a bachelor’s degree from DePauw University. Andy is a state-certified youth soccer coach and enjoys coaching youth soccer at a local soccer club in town.
Erika holds a Ph.D. in education administration and policy from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has a passion for children and her work entails research and advocacy for strengthening education. She currently works as a Project Director for the Regional Office of Education 17. She has previously worked at Illinois State University, for Governor Jim Edgar and for two state agencies.
Andy and Erika have two children and have enjoyed getting to know all of the parents and children who have become the Scribbles Family!
