Shape a Brighter Future for Children and Yourself.
The demand for quality early childhood education is greater than ever. According to the Center for American Progress, 67.8% of children under age six have all available parents in the workforce.* The high rate of dual income families is just one factor driving industry growth, which is projected to reach $487 billion by 2030 – a CAGR of 13.5%.
With a proven and popular curriculum, an APK! Academy franchise offers a lucrative investment opportunity in this high-growth industry:

Hands-On Support
Take the worry out of launching a business with an open line of communication to one of the most experienced and dedicated management teams in the industry.
Absolutely, Positively, Kids! (APK!) has been bringing out the greatness in children since 2005, having earned awards for Best Childcare Center, Best Afterschool Program and Best Summer Camp!
More than anything else, what defines APK! is the success of the students whose parents come back after graduating and share stories of how their child’s APK! experience gave them the tools they needed to excel.
From our skilled teachers to our administrators... warm, responsive care coupled with a secure learning environment is our core vision. Each APK! team-member knows that the quality of relationships which children experience during their first 5 years of life have a deep and lasting impact on their future development, and that knowledge guides them every step of their day.
The foundation of Absolutely, Positively, Kids! is the environment we create within our physical buildings. Our facility, curriculum, teachers and educational resources work together in a highly coordinated endeavor that makes the most of the window of opportunity in brain development between infancy and age five.
Having enriched the lives of children for two decades, we are ready to bring our award-winning brand to new neighborhoods through franchise offerings.
APK! Academy is more than a franchise opportunity. It’s a chance to shape a brighter future for the next generation – and for yourself. It’s important for our franchise partners to be committed to the APK! Academy brand values and mission. Ideal candidates will take the responsibility of working with young minds seriously, and have the necessary skills to manage a busy school environment. While previous experience working with children isn’t essential, successful candidates should be warm and loving individuals who are dedicated to providing the best possible educational experience for children and their families.
An APK! Academy franchise is more than a business opportunity. It’s a partnership where we’re equally invested in you. Drawing on our extensive experience, we’re committed to helping our franchise partners acquire the knowledge and build the necessary skills to thrive in the early childhood education industry.
