We’re in this Together

Investing in you—now and in the future.

At Tumbles, we understand that your success is our success. That’s why we developed a comprehensive training and support program to help you launch and grow a ​profitable franchise business​, including:

• Up to two weeks of training at a U.S. Tumbles location approximately eight weeks before your grand opening
• Two to three days of training at your location to get you started
• Ongoing refresher training
• Ongoing support that’s just a phone call or click away
• Access to hundreds of support videos

Financial support you can count on.

While Tumbles doesn’t offer financing to potential owners, we meet the criteria for small business association (SBA) eligibility and provide valuable support to help you find funding for your business. We start with a financial pre-approval screening and don’t award a franchise unless we feel confident that you will get financed. From there, we work together with an approved lender to help you secure financing and build a profitable franchise business​. Our team of experts will:

1. Explain commercial lending practices
2. Guide you through funding options
3. Make lender referrals
4. Review loan proposals and ensure they offer competitive terms
5. Teach you financial planning and management techniques
6. Walk you through our financial planning and analytical tools

Finding your ideal space. Getting it ready for business.

When you’re ​opening a franchise​, location is everything. We work with commercial real estate professionals who use demographic and psychographic data to help you select the best location for your business. But we don’t stop there. Our pre-opening team will recommend reputable third-party vendors who can also help you:

• Negotiate the best terms for your lease
• Create architectural plans and project budgets
• Obtain construction permits
• Find and vet a build-out construction team
• Keep the project on schedule and within budget
• Install all indoor play equipment
• Conduct walk-through inspections and prepare for your grand opening

Finding (and keeping!) a passionate team.

Building a successful ​children’s franchise​ requires assembling a strong team that is passionate about making a difference in kids’ lives. We’ll help you find the right people for the job—and keep them dedicated and motivated team members for years to come. Our hiring support tools include:

1. Detailed job descriptions
2. Interviewing tips
3. Techniques for getting references
4. Information about conducting background checks
