Our professional real estate team has years of experience selecting locations throughout the country. We utilize sophisticated market demographic software and site selection strategies, as well as market and site tours/inspections to help the franchisee select most suitable site available.
One important aspect of our strategy for growth is the relationships our experienced real estate team establishes with landlords and developers. High quality facilities developed in locations that make good business sense are the result.
We provide a full spectrum of support to our Franchisees, including assistance with site selection, building design and development. This entails support with regulatory approvals for building, zoning and child-care licensing throughout the construction phase.
Once open, Kiddie Academy Franchises are continually supported with training and guidance on financial management, operations and marketing. Our comprehensive set of systems and methodologies helps each franchisee maintain uniform, high-quality standards.
