Interested in Franchising with Us? Follow These Five Steps

Franchise ownership offers the independence of being your own boss and the security of a proven system. It’s an incredible way to create stability for you and your family and have a true impact on your community, but getting started can feel intimidating. This is why at Kiddie Academy®, we offer a simple step-by-step process to ensure you feel supported every step of the way.

Our five steps to franchise ownership:

1. Connect with us through our website or fill out a confidential, no-obligation preliminary questionnaire. From there, a member of our dedicated team will take a customized approach to answer your questions and walk you through the discovery process.

2. Discover our approach through our in-depth discovery process. We’ll guide you through our support model, Franchise Disclosure Document, and give you access to educational webinars that provide more information about the development process. You’ll learn everything you need to know during this step – from financing to daily operations at your Academy.

3. Join us for Orientation Day at our corporate headquarters in Abingdon, Maryland. Here you’ll have the chance to meet with our leadership team, discuss our culture and support model, and visit our flagship Academy. This is a unique opportunity to receive additional one-on-one support and guidance from our dedicated staff, which will continue even after Orientation Day is over.

4. Launch your Kiddie Academy. During your launch, you’ll go through several important steps with the full support of our dedicated corporate team.

5. Celebrate your Grand Opening. This is your opportunity to introduce your Academy to your community and make a real difference. As always, we’ll support you both during and beyond your opening day.

Choosing franchise ownership marks the beginning of a rewarding and wonderful future. If you’d like to explore franchise ownership in your community, check out our Franchise Opportunities page to find out what’s available.
