Safari Kid is a lifestyle business operating Monday–Friday, 8 to 5. Today’s busy dual-income families are always on the go. Often they spend their hard-earned money on daycare facilities and nannies with no added value. Compare that with Safari Kid’s eclectic philosophy of child care, which focuses on overall emotional and social well-being as well as the goal of stimulating healthy brain development. By selecting the best components of the Reggio Emilia and Montessori methods, the proprietary Safari Kid preschool curriculum and state-of-the-art environment was carefully developed. Rather than focusing solely on their age, each child’s learning experience is determined by their unique abilities and skill sets. This allows each student to reach their full potential at their own pace.
Safari Kid not only provides preschool programs that encourage lifelong learning. We also offer enrichment in the form of after-school programs for children in kindergarten through 8th grade. Our summer camps combine academics with sports, learning new skills, and a lot of heart-healthy and wholesome fun!

Training:
Our training begins with a review of Safari Kid’s operation manuals. Then we offer a three day interactive experience, in which in-house training will commence. This involves in-person observations of our preschool and after-school programs at both our corporate location in Newark, CA and other nearby centers. Observations in the first session of training will focus on the school environment, and how to build the proper culture and philosophy that is expected from the Safari Kid brand. There will also be a review of licensing and curriculum, such as the “booklet system”. The first session of training will conclude with gaining an understanding of our school operations and finance, such as how to roll out specific school programs and how to execute an effective business plan. The second session of training involves a large focus on understanding the Level 1 - Level 4 preschool development stages within Safari Kid. There will also be hands-on training sessions on how the Safari Kid After-School program is run. Other critical parts to running the business will also be discussed, such as marketing, public relations, staffing & HR, and license applications. Both potential Safari Kid Franchise Owners and Directors are encouraged to attend these training sessions. Teachers are supported with ongoing training due to our progressive curriculum, which changes with the latest educational research. All Safari Kid staff will also take part in an annual meeting which includes training and support as needed.
