Financial Costs
One of the most significant decisions to make before you embark on your Casa de Corazón franchise is whether you are ready financially. Here are some of the expenses you’ll need to consider:
-
The Franchise Fee – The initial investment in a Casa de Corazón franchise can vary, as costs for real estate, construction, supplies, and staff, may differ depending on location. Many entrepreneurs look for small business loans to get started.
-
Equipment – The franchise package includes some of the equipment and supplies you will need. However, there are other items you will want to purchase for your school. Our team can help you determine what you need and how much those items will cost.
-
Real Estate – You will need to purchase the land for your Casa de Corazón school. We can provide some guidance on how to choose an area with a convenient location. Our team can also talk with you about other things to consider when checking out properties.

Get Started
Start a Business In Your Community
A Casa de Corazón school offers you the franchise opportunity to start a business in your community that will make a difference for generations. With our business name and brand, you can run a successful franchise caring for children in the South Tampa Bay/St. Petersburg/Clearwater area of Florida. We give you all the tools to challenge the active minds of young children and help them love learning from the start.
Investing in Kids
When you offer your community a Casa de Corazón school, you invest in much more than a building and a business. You are giving south Tampa children a head start on their future academic success and career potential. Bilingual education in the form of long-term immersive programming is highly desirable for parents of young children. Research consistently finds that students who receive this kind of instruction outperform peers academically and develop more dense gray matter in the executive control area of the brain. They also demonstrate better working memories and longer attention spans.
Better Futures
Bilingual adults are highly desirable in the workforce, and they have an increased earning potential over those who speak only one language. Since up to 75% of the world’s population speaks at least two languages, multilingual education opens doors for international employment in the future. Young children learn new languages with greater ease than older individuals, so it’s beneficial to start immersive education as early as possible.
- Casa de Corazón franchises serve locally-grown, organic food at meals whenever it’s available. This practice is healthy for children’s growing bodies, but it also benefits local farmers and grocers. Many people in Fort Lauderdale own a business that could benefit from a partnership with your Casa de Corazón franchise.
- Casa de Corazón centers sponsor local activities to benefit everyone in the community. From fundraisers to environmentally friendly practices to our support of local businesses, our franchises contribute to the good of the whole community.
- Children educated in the Casa de Corazón model get an early start on bilingual education through learning in a Spanish immersion environment. Research indicates that multilingual people have greater earnings potential as adults and are better prepared for life in a world where up to 75% of people speak at least two languages.
Working with the Community
At Casa de Corazón, we take pride in our role as good citizens. We understand that to own a business is to be part of the community. We partner with other socially responsible businesses to take advantage of community resources while supporting local companies. For example, we serve food prepared with ingredients from local farmer’s markets and organic community gardens. We also participate in local events that support children and families.
