About Us

We deliver an unrivaled franchisee support system, a whole-child approach to instruction, and strategic guidance into integrating our brand and your presence in the local community. In the end, you own a business delivering your own personal vision of quality childcare, but you are never without the support of our industry leading team.

In 1988, founders Cliff and Diane Clark saw a need for high-quality child development centers near their home in metro Atlanta. Diane, a professional educator with decades of experience, understood that children need to know they are loved and cared for before effective learning can take place. The Clarks opened the first Discovery Point childcare center with a commitment to meeting each child’s individual needs and learning style. We’ve grown into a strong network of centers that stretches across the Southeast with plans to expand further.

• 30 years of brand strength in educational childcare
• The only childcare franchise with a flat fee system (vs. fees based on a percentage of your total sales). You know exactly what your franchise costs will be each month and you can keep more of your profits as your business grows.
• We want our owners to shine – personalize your center to fit your community
• Strong center profitability
