The Learning Experience — headquartered in Deerfield Beach — announced Monday its coming expansion in a press release, citing an influx of young families to the cities, creating a growing need for childcare options.
Each new location will have capacity for upwards of 180 kids from 6 weeks to 6 years of age with childcare, enrichment programs, and early childhood education.
The newly built centers will be 10,000-square-feet with up to a 5,000-square-foot outdoor playground. Each San Antonio location will employ around 30 staff members.
The company has not announced a specific opening date for each site, nor specific addresses.
Franchisees must possess $150,000 in liquid capital and pay a $60,000 upfront franchise fee and a $30,000 deposit towards site development.
Franchisees should expect a total investment cost including working capital of $550,000 to $750,000.
