Ivybrook Academy Franchise Overview
If you’re searching for a fulfilling chance to shape your future, indulge in your passions, and contribute to your community, Ivybrook Academy is the ideal choice. Our half-day Preschool Franchise offers a unique approach to early childhood education that distinguishes us from other programs. We embrace each child’s uniqueness and acknowledge their abilities and requirements, allowing us to provide an immensely influential experience that readies them for their futures.
Why Franchise With Ivybrook Academy?
Ivybrook Academy was created by a public-school teacher who was looking to balance quality of life with owning a business. As a highly involved mom of two very young children, she sought a means of achieving financial freedom that would also allow her more time with her kids. Enter the Ivybrook Academy model. Our Preschool franchise is all about family and offers a rewarding opportunity to take control of your future.
Ivybrook vs Daycares
Why choose to open an Ivybrook Franchise rather than a daycare? An Ivybrook Academy location features the following:
- Steady daytime hours of operation – 8:15 to 4:30
- No transportation/busing of children
- No lunches served
- Professional teachers with 4-year teaching degrees
- Innovative blended curriculum based on Reggio Emilia and Montessori methods
- Facilities are closed approximately 32 workdays per year
- When summer hours are involved, the facility closes by noon
And these are just a few of the benefits of owning your Ivybrook Academy franchise! Remember – we will assist you every step of the way on your journey through the franchising process. From helping you find the right location, developing the building plans, and going through construction to ordering your equipment and furniture, hiring staff, training, and more, we will offer the support you need and deserve. As part of the Ivybrook Academy franchise family, we’ll help you through developing, running, and owning your own private Preschool!
