When I started Happy Kids Yoga I had one clear aim. I wanted work that mattered, without missing my children growing up. No desk from nine to five, and no guilt every time a school trip, sports day or nativity landed on a weekday.
Years on, I have been on every single school trip. I have waved them off in the morning and been at the gate in the afternoon. And I have built a successful business alongside all of it.
The reason is a children’s yoga franchise built around flexibility and family.
A business shaped around your life
There is no standard week when you run a kids yoga franchise, and that is the point. You decide when, where and how much you work. Your week might include:
- Morning sessions in nurseries
- After school clubs on a few afternoons
- Weekend classes or workshops
- Holiday sessions that fit around your own family plans
Or you might start small and build slowly. That is fine too. You are the one in charge.
“I have never missed a school trip. Museums, beach days, even handing out snacks on the coach. I get to say yes to the little moments, and I never take that for granted.”
Jen Hoe, founder
A real business with real support
Flexible does not mean casual. As a Happy Kids Yoga franchisee you get:
- A complete lesson plan library, ready to teach from day one
- Business and marketing training, with no previous experience needed
- A network of franchisees who share what works
- Ongoing mentoring from head office
- Templates and tools that bring bookings in and help you grow
You never start from a blank page and you are never left to work it out alone.
Who this suits
- A parent who wants to earn and still be present
- A teacher or early years professional who wants more say over their week
- Someone who loves wellbeing and working with children
- Anyone who wants a career that means something
What you get back
- The freedom to build a timetable around your family
- The satisfaction of helping children become calmer, more confident and kinder
- The backing of a brand that already knows what works
- A sense of purpose every time you walk into a class
And the ability to say, every time, “Yes, I can come on the trip.”
One last thought
You do not have to choose between making a difference and being there for your family. With the right support and a business that fits your life, you can do both. You can build something you are proud of and still be the parent on the playground, in the assembly hall and on the coach to the farm.
