About Building Kidz School

Building Kidz was born out of necessity when founder Vineeta Bhandari could not find a preschool equipped to handle her daughter’s medical needs while still providing a high-quality education. Since opening the first campus in 2003, the brand has evolved into a mission-driven franchise system that prioritizes a whole child philosophy, reaching beyond the standard daycare curriculum to integrate music, dance, theater and semi-immersive Spanish into students’ everyday activities. In addition to the developmental benefits the introduction of performing arts provides, these activities serve to build confidence, character and commitment in Building Kidz students. Outside of its own local classrooms, Building Kidz is deeply rooted in a desire to make a global impact and dedicates up to $75,000 of its profits each year to helping underprivileged children worldwide, including children with hearing disabilities, vision impairment and juvenile diabetes
