About Us

Since its founding in 1989, Rainbow Station has consistently proven itself as a leader in early education and school-age recreation. With unique concepts such as PLAYWORKS© (This program teaches our Preschoolers how to play and interact with other children) Rainbow Station has created initiatives that continue to raise the bar for preschools on a national level.

We are proud to be the first "Leadership Preschool" in the country, based on adopting the nationally acclaimed initiatives outlined in Sean Covey's "7 Habits of Happy Kids," which focuses on leadership development beyond academics. This is a new model of modern leadership where every child is nurtured as a leader, and our teachers are equipped with proven tools to instill a deep sense of responsibility and personal leadership accountability in their students. Our "learn early, learn well, and lead" philosophy helps children become successful citizens with skills in areas such as responsibility, balance, and synergy that will be foundational for their future success.

We offer our students what no other school does, a full spectrum of care for the whole child. From academics and health to leading edge leadership development initiative, as well we have on-site care by a pediatric nurse.

Why Rainbow Station Franchise?

The short story: There's high demand for quality early education — and Rainbow Station is among the few proven to deliver it. America consistently shows a demand for quality preschools. With more than 13 million children under age 6 enrolled in child care, according to the U.S. Department of Education, it is one of the fastest-growing industries in the country. An ever increasing number of mothers are now working mothers who are employed for 30 or more hours per week. This is a clear indication that child care is a critical need to support today's families.

It's not just child care, but quality child care is in even higher demand. Only 6 percent of child care centers and preschools nationwide meet the accreditation standards of the National Association for the Education of Young Children — Rainbow Station is among them. This means only 6 percent of child care centers and preschools nationwide follow a curriculum emphasizing individual interests and talents, offer low child-teacher ratios, teach children how to learn, and offer an environment in which children are happy, relaxed, and involved with play. The basic economics of supply and demand demonstrate Rainbow Station's value as a top-tier provider of the quality care and education lacking in today's national landscape.

Q & A with Stevie Gator

 
  • Why has your business model been successful?

    Rainbow Station is unique in the Early Education field. We offer a model that has shown substantial financial reward (see our FDD for FPR’s), has multiple positive differences from our competitors (sick child care on site through our Get Well Place, an afterschool program separately housed in a Disney-like building called The Village, an educationally based Preschool with our own curriculum and degreed teachers, and the first recognized Preschool promoting the 7 Habits of Happy Children from the Stephen Covey organization) and has grown even during the present tough economic environment.

  • What is your favorite advice to give a potential franchisee?

    You are in position to make a positive difference in the lives of children and families with your passion and commitment to our Brand.

  • What about your industry is the most attractive to a potential buyer?
