Rubba-Bubba - Baby & Toddler Massage, Yoga & Messy Play Franchise

Huge return and profit potential even for part-time working parents with this flexible opportunity

Established in 2013, Rubba-Bubba is the parent-friendly franchise that offers adults and their little ones classes in yoga, massage and messy play!

Five years ago, we franchised and now we bring fun and emotional wellbeing to families across the country.

Our tried & tested business model has got us through a recession and a pandemic, so you know you’ll be operating with a franchise that knows what it’s doing.

Our approach is time-flexible, making it a fantastic career move for people who want working hours and days to suit them. The return and profit potential are huge even for part-time working parents.

We are expanding our territories from Wales into England and Scotland, so this is a unique and limited opportunity to invest in your ideal local territory.

Rubba-Bubba is a family where our franchisees get all the support, love and encouragement possible. When our franchisees succeed, we all do!

OUR MAJOR ACHIEVEMENTS

In the past decade since we were founded and the last five since we first franchised, we have reached some significant milestones, including accreditation with the BFA and the highest ranking with ICAP.

Several of our award-shortlisted franchisees run up to twelve classes a week and have even had to take on extra teachers to meet demand!

As we expand our reach, we have attained an £8,000 grant to run community classes. We also now have a unique Stage 2 baby massage & yoga class.

Demand has meant that we now offer pioneering running classes with a four-week monthly subscription rather than a large termly block. All franchisees are able to work term-time only.

TESTIMONIALS

“I joined Rubba-Bubba as I took my son to the massage classes and loved them… The great thing about being part of the franchise is I choose when and where I hold classes within my territory – meaning I can work them around my family, doing as much or as little as I need. I love meeting all the wonderful parents and their babies each week, teaching them the skill of massage but also having time for a chat and a cuppa at the end.”

- Sara, Instructor

“I’d recommend this business to anyone looking to earn a fab income while enjoying exciting classes with cute babies and friendly mums, what’s not to love! You get full support from Tash and be part of the ever-growing Rubba-Bubba family and I’m grateful to have made some fantastic memories and friends”

- Kath, Instructor

“Being part of a franchise was perfect for me as I can work the hours I want to work and being a busy mum of two children I didn’t have the time to start my own business from scratch. Tash is always there with any questions or queries I have; no question is a silly question with Tash. We have regular meetings with other franchisees to discuss how we can drive our businesses forward by bringing new ideas to the table.”

- Rach, Instructor
