As for choosing Kids ‘R’ Kids, Patel liked that the franchise has remained family-owned by its founders since 1985, something that is becoming increasingly less common. Kids ‘R’ Kids Academy is headquartered in Decatur, Georgia, and currently has more than 150 locations across the U.S. If the concept finds success, the couple could look to open another Kids ‘R’ Kids Academy elsewhere in the region, he added. The Patels are currently working on pricing for their Kids ‘R’ Kids Academy to figure out what is comparable for the area. Kids ‘R’ Kids is one of several childcare franchises to expand in the Richmond market of late.
