About Us
With dual-income families being the norm, the demand for quality childcare is steadily increasing. More than 15 million children under the age of 6 require childcare. Besides being a recession-resistant business opportunity, owning a childcare franchise that helps to shape young minds can also be emotionally fulfilling.
The Goddard School core curriculum emphasizes early childhood development and incorporates enrichment programs in math, foreign language, art history, sign language, world cultures, music appreciation, fitness, dance and manners. Our unique approach nurtures children into joyful, confident learners who are well-prepared for success in school and in life. Your School will also help them make a positive impact on your community.

Our Ideal Candidate
Owning a Goddard School franchise leaves you plenty of time to accomplish your own goals and dreams. Whether you want to spend more time with your family, knock a few items off your “bucket list,” or simply have more free time, our dual-management model allows you to run the business and develop relationships while your Education Director, degreed in Early Childhood Education, is responsible for curriculum, programming and teacher development. From the minute you become a franchisee, we help you accomplish both your professional goals and your personal ones.
The typical Goddard School owner is a successful businessperson who is too young to retire but who is weary of corporate life and eager to run a business of his or her own. The best part? No prior teaching or childcare experience is necessary. All you really need is the drive and commitment to run a successful School because we’ll guide you every step of the way.
