Most of our owners are first-time entrepreneurs. What they brought was a reason to start. We bring the curriculum, the training and 350+ centers' worth of experience — you bring the care for the kids in your community.

A free 30-minute meeting with our franchise development team, live on Microsoft Teams. No application, no obligation. We cover territory availability, what the investment looks like in your market, and what opening your own center involves.
Our owners come from everywhere: teachers, engineers, and parents who wanted more time at home. The center model is deliberately simple: monthly enrollment, ten-plus subjects, a curriculum we write for you, and a team that answers the phone when you call.
Curriculum, pricing, staffing, marketing calendar — proven across 350+ centers. You run it, you don't invent it.
Enrollment is month to month, and children often add subjects as they progress. Revenue you can plan around.
Centers run part-time or full-time depending on the courses you offer. Many owners are home for dinner.
You will watch children in your own neighborhood get better at something they were afraid of. That is the job.
Every center teaches the same curriculum, written and maintained by our experienced curriculum team and supported by the franchising and marketing staff at our Chicago-area headquarters.
Something new every class, so children stay curious instead of grinding through the same worksheet again.
Real classroom teaching by board-certified teachers, with unlimited one-on-one help for every student.
Math, English, Coding, Abacus and more — so one family can grow with you for years.

Nothing to attend. Tell us your country and we'll email the right investment breakdown, what support covers, and how to get started.
If yours isn't here, it's the first thing we'll cover at your meeting.
No. Your center is staffed by board-certified teachers who deliver the classes. Your job is running the business and looking after families. Many of our owners came from corporate careers with no classroom experience at all.
Most owners move from signed agreement to first class within 6-9 months, depending on how quickly a site comes together in your market. Your franchise director will map the timeline against your own availability on the call.
Some owners start part-time, particularly if they open with a narrower course offering. It is worth raising early, because it changes how we plan your staffing and opening schedule.
We do it with you. Site selection is part of what your franchise fee covers, along with your exclusive territory, so you are not guessing at foot traffic or school catchments alone.
Head office builds the campaigns, creative and grand-opening plan; you run the local relationships. You will never be asked to write your own ads.
Nothing. There is no application to fill in and no obligation. Plenty of people take the call, learn the numbers and decide it isn't for them — that is a good outcome too.
Yes. From time to time, existing Best Brains centers become available for purchase. Contact us for a current list of available locations in your area, and our team can discuss the opportunities with you.
