In a recent video interview, Children’s Lighthouse Franchisee Randy Craft shares how the brand’s strong support, innovative approach, and operational model have allowed him to build a successful business while making a lasting impact in his community.
“All of my involvement with the [school] is outside of the [school],” Craft said. “Things like marketing, public relations, and community outreach really allow me to make sure the community presence of the [school] is strong because [my Director] has the day-to-day operations nailed down.”
This is one of the most compelling aspects of the Childrens Lighthouse Franchise Company model — the operational simplicity offered to franchisees, allowing them to manage their business semi-absentee after the initial phase. With this structure, franchisees like Craft can scale their businesses while maintaining a flexible work-life balance.
One of the key reasons Craft has found success with Children’s Lighthouse is the brand’s ongoing support. “The support for us has been fantastic,” he said. “Whenever I need them, I can pick up the phone and call.”
Additionally, the brand continues to evolve, ensuring that franchisees have access to the latest tools and technology to streamline operations and enhance the educational experience for children.
“[Children’s] Lighthouse keeps reinventing itself,” Craft said.
For Craft, the most rewarding aspect of owning a Children’s Lighthouse franchise is seeing the happiness of the children and families he serves.
Children’s Lighthouse’s proprietary, STREAM-based Lighthouse Pathways® curriculum provides opportunities for individualized skill development, group learning, self-regulation, and inquiry-based investigation with a focus on four key areas; Confidence, Connection, Continuous Improvement, and Curriculum. STREAM stands for science, technology, reading, engineering, arts, and math.
Children's Lighthouse franchisees can access multiple revenue streams by offering a range of specialized educational programs tailored to different age groups along with summer camps. From the Lighthouse BRIGHT® curriculum designed for early brain development in infants to the dynamic xSTREAM Quest® for school-aged children, and engaging summer programs filled with diverse activities, franchisees have the opportunity to attract a broad demographic of families.
“I just know by the smiles on the parents' faces and to see kiddos grow up with smiles — it is just wonderful to be a part of the community and to make a difference with Children’s Lighthouse,” Craft said.
Looking ahead, Craft envisions his children taking over the business, continuing the legacy he built a decade ago.
“Growing the next 10 years, I’m looking for my kids to acquire this business,” he said. “It’s a good foundation for them, an opportunity for them to take over what I invested in 10 years back and use it as a livelihood going forward.”
With a proven model, strong corporate support and the opportunity to build a lasting legacy, Children’s Lighthouse continues to be a compelling choice for entrepreneurs looking to invest in the future of early childhood education.
