What parents ask before they call
I've never run a business. Is that a problem?
No. Most owners are first-time business owners. Training covers operations, enrollment, marketing and the software that runs the center.
How many hours a week will it take?
It's a hands-on business, especially in the first months, but hours concentrate after school and weekends. Absentee ownership isn't allowed; part-time owner-operators are common.
What ages do centers serve?
Ages 3 to 14 — from PreK programs through middle school, plus ACT/SAT test prep.
