Overview

Celebree School provides early childhood education through infant and toddler care, preschool, before and after-school programs, and summer camps. Founded in 1994, the brand has become a thought leader in early education with a mission to Protect, Educate, and Nurture®. After operating for over two decades, Celebree began franchising in 2019 to expand its community-focused education model. With over 70 schools open or under development, the brand combines a proven business system with a passion for helping children grow academically and emotionally.

Franchisees operate Celebree Schools by managing the facility, overseeing staff, and ensuring high-quality care and education programs are delivered in compliance with state guidelines. Revenue is generated through tuition fees across various child age groups and extended programs. The franchisor supports owners with a customized curriculum, staff training, marketing assistance, and operational tools to foster a thriving business. The real estate model also supports reduced startup costs by encouraging landlords to cover significant construction expenses through negotiated leases.

Celebree School is ideal for individuals who are passionate about education and community involvement. Owners with backgrounds in education, business management, or leadership will thrive. Successful franchisees are hands-on, leading teams, ensuring compliance, and building strong relationships with families while managing day-to-day operations of a child care center.
