Community-Based Childcare Provider Sold in New York

HINGE Advisors is honored to announce the sale of Kiddie Care Early Learning Center, a large community-based childcare provider in Long Island, New York. The transaction enables the school to continue serving hundreds of children and families in the local area as part of a national childcare provider.

Under the steady leadership of two teachers turned business partners, Kiddie Care has grown dramatically since 2001 and become a recognized provider of high-quality programs for infants through school age children throughout the region.

“With such a robust center and strong enrollment, we recognized the owner was in a favorable position to find a successor with a large regional or national group,” says HINGE Transaction Advisor Henry Tiberi, who led the school’s sale. “Utilizing our extensive reach and relationships with leading childcare buyers and investors across the country, we found the optimal buyer and a rewarding deal for our seller.”

This sale was supported by a team of early education experts from HINGE Advisors, including Tiberi, Financial Analyst Marnie Rhen and Diligence Managers Melissa Davis and Carrie Pergerson.

Managing Due Diligence for a Successful Childcare Sale 

Like all quality childcare transactions, the due diligence process was a critical part of the sale. During this process, the buyer analyzes the nitty-gritty details of a childcare business to evaluate financials, operations, enrollment, licensing, and more before finalizing the sale.

Knowing this is a necessary but often painstaking part of selling, HINGE’s diligence managers facilitate and provide support for sellers throughout the process. Not only do they alleviate stress, but they are also instrumental in seeing deals through to the finish line.

“HINGE's diligence team is a godsend. They are so personally attentive to every 't' that needs to be crossed and every 'i' that needs to be dotted in order to keep a deal on track. They were a huge help, always quick to respond and incredibly knowledgeable.”
