Dear Entrepreneur,

Thank you for your interest in our franchise program and congratulations on taking your first step towards becoming a Tiny Hoppers franchisee. As experienced business owners, we realize that one of the keys to success lies in choosing a business, within an industry, that matches your own interests, abilities and financial situation.

Being a business owner can be quite liberating; as it offers a sense of accomplishment, flexibility and is financially rewarding. Through our careful screening process we ensure that we select those individuals who possess the drive, personality, work ethic and commitment required to be successful in the childcare field and more specifically in running one of our Tiny Hoppers Early Learning Centres.

At Tiny Hoppers we spent over a decade in perfecting our business and programming model before we ventured outside of Ottawa, our hometown. Today, we are actively working on establishing multiple centres throughout Canada and across the globe. Our remarkable success has helped us to make a clean sweep of the daycare awards in every city where Tiny Hoppers is located.  Together, our centres have won the Faces Award for best daycare for multiple years running, the CHCH Business Excellence Award, The Macaroni Kids Family Favourites Award, The Kingston This Week Readers Choice Award, The Burlington Post Readers Choice Award and the Three Best Rated Preschool Award.  In addition, Tiny Hoppers has won the OBJ Business Achievement Award and Theresa Bertuzzi and Brigida Aversa, co-founders of Tiny Hoppers, each won the Ottawa Business Journal’s Top 40 under 40 Award and were chosen to be featured in Distinctive Women Magazine, featuring prominent business women across Canada.  With this background, Tiny Hoppers has developed a step-by-step process in facilitating entrepreneurs into this largely untapped market where we get to inspire and promote healthy child development.
