What some of our franchisees have to say:
"Having been a mom using this service at Emmarentia Primary - I then invested in a franchise in Bryanston and now run the centres at St Stithian's Girls and Boys Prep. I understood this need as a mother and now am an independent business owner- giving me more flexibility with my own young children and love growing and nurturing other young minds" Naz Scholtz Sherpa Kids Bryanston
"My plan was to give up my full time job as a CA(SA) within 5 years of buying my Sherpa Kids franchise. I reached this goal within a year. My centre at Saheti has shown great growth and our partnership with the school leadership is critical to the success of my Sherpa Kids centre. Owning my own business has given me independence and lifestyle balance. I love being part of this brand - making a significant and meaningful impact for working families" Debbie van Zyl Sherpa Kids Regional Developer Johannesburg East.
