Become a Franchise Owner.

“After moving to Central Florida in 2009 with two young daughters and a son on the way, we needed a reliable and flexible opportunity to care for our children while providing financially for our well being, too. We’re now proud owners of three Academy locations.

For our first location, we acquired an independent center and converted it to the first Kiddie Academy in Central Florida. Our second location was built from the ground up in a more traditional method, working closely with every department of the Kiddie Academy corporate team to bring the school to life. For our third location, we were handpicked by the previous owners to take over for them after they decided to retire.”

“Once we had our first child, it became clear that opening a high-quality child care center was a huge need in our community, and something that we could feel good about each day.

We recognized the importance of partnering with a reputable Franchise, and Kiddie Academy stood out. The core values / mission, the amazing curriculum, the Corporate Team and other Franchise Owners, and the support around Health and Safety helped build our confidence that we could own a successful educational child care center.”

“After having three young children all under age two, we struggled to find the quality of care coupled with education we wanted for our own kids. Together, we saw that the Kiddie Academy values aligned with our own.

Even after a decade, I still love visiting the infant classrooms, sneaking in for baby hugs! I enjoy the excitement and love I receive when my students find out that I’m the surprise guest reader or yoga instructor. The warm hugs, giggles, and shared moments of kindness are what continue to bring us joy and a sense of fulfillment.”

“A well-run early learning environment can have an amazing impact on a child and his or her whole family. My children have been in educational child care centers (and now in mine!) and I have seen first-hand the impact it can make in shaping who they are.

Seeing the finished product after construction blew me away!! The Academy turned out so beautiful and we hear that during every tour. We are excited to see our vision come to life. We can’t wait to keep growing and seeing more positive outcomes for children and families from being a part of the Kiddie Academy community.”

“We have a unique opportunity to positively impact the outcome for so many children that we see every day. When we met everyone on the Kiddie Academy leadership team and other Franchise Owners, it was clear to us that everyone feels the same and shares the same values and that was really important.

Creating the community we have has been the most rewarding. We held a Spring Celebration bringing together other holidays and celebrations. The joy in everyone present was something I’ll never forget—the teachers and families are truly family to us.”

“Devon and I decided that we wanted to build something really special together. Our criteria were that we wanted to learn something new, and we wanted to make a difference in people’s lives.

There was a clear match for us in Kiddie Academy. Our conversations felt warm and genuine. We believed that the Kiddie Academy leadership team was “in it” for the right reasons, the brand is comfortable yet focused, and the curriculum got rave reviews. This is the best job I have ever had. Every. Single. Day!”

“The opportunity to blend my entrepreneurial spirit with my commitment to early childhood education made Kiddie Academy a perfect fit. Their focus on nurturing curiosity, creativity, and confidence in children resonated with my core values, motivating me to invest and expand into this impactful sector.

One of the proudest moments in my career has been my successful journey of becoming a multi-unit Kiddie Academy Franchise Owner. It’s been incredibly rewarding to see the growth of my locations, not only in numbers but in the impact we’ve had on the children and families we serve.”
