A preschool franchise suits women entrepreneurs for practical business reasons. The entry investment is manageable at 10 to 15 lakhs, it runs from a single local premises you can choose near home, the working day broadly matches school hours, and no teaching background is needed because the training and curriculum come from us. A large share of our 350 plus partners are women, many of them running their first business.
Some are former teachers who wanted to own a centre rather than work in one. Some are professionals restarting after a career break. Some had never run a business before. What they had in common was capital they could commit, a city they knew well, and a brand that would train them properly. This is what the partnership actually looks like.
None of that makes it an easy business. It makes it a business you can start with moderate capital, learn with support behind you, and run from one location you know well.
This is the most common hesitation we hear, and it is usually misplaced. As the owner you run the business, admissions, hiring, parent relationships, local marketing and daily operations. The teaching is done by trained staff working from the I-Cube curriculum, with our academic support behind them.
A teaching background does help you judge what is happening in a classroom, and many former teachers make excellent owners for that reason. But it is an advantage, not a requirement.
| Stage | What we provide |
|---|---|
| Before you sign | Honest assessment of your area, and the full investment in writing |
| Location | Site evaluation with our team, before you commit to a lease |
| Before opening | Owner and teacher training, no education background needed |
| Setup | Centre design, furniture, learning material and systems |
| Launch | Pre-launch admission campaign, so you open with children enrolled |
| After opening | Marketing, admissions, academic and operational support, ongoing |
The part partners tell us matters most is the last row. Plenty of support ends at the opening ceremony. Ours does not, because the first two admission seasons decide how the centre performs for years afterwards.
| What it takes | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Investment | 10 to 15 lakhs, plus working capital budgeted separately |
| Space | 2000 to 2500 sq ft, ground floor preferred |
| Time to open | About 45 days |
| Experience | None required, training is provided |
| Daily commitment | Present daily through the first admission season |
Budget the working capital separately from the franchise investment. Rent and salaries begin before fee collections settle, and our team helps you size that buffer for your city before you sign.
We are straight with partners about year one. Parents want to meet the owner, staff need settling in and admissions need following up. Once the centre is stable and you have a capable centre head, the daily load drops considerably and many owners move to a supervisory rhythm.
Choosing a location near home is the practical lever. It shortens your day more than any other single decision, and you already understand the neighbourhood you are selling to.
Our franchise team will explain the investment, evaluate whether your area can support a centre, and walk you through the 45 day launch process. There is no obligation at the enquiry stage, and you get the full numbers in writing.
Shanti Juniors partners with a large number of women entrepreneurs, many running their first business. We provide full training, the curriculum, location help and support that continues after launch, with an investment of 10 to 15 lakhs.
10 to 15 lakhs for the franchise investment, plus rent, salaries, licences and working capital budgeted separately.
No. Owners do not need one. Your teaching staff should be trained in early childhood education, and we provide that training.
No. You need a separate commercial space of about 2000 to 2500 sq ft, cleared for educational use under local rules.
Plan for daily presence through the first admission season. Once the centre is stable and a centre head is in place, the daily load reduces.
It can be. Most well-run centres aim to recover the investment in about 2 years, though returns depend on location, fees and admissions and are not guaranteed.
