Visit Our Kindergarten in Hove
The best way to understand Young Friends is to experience it.
We keep our visits short and low-key so you get a real feel for the environment and the children’s day stays uninterrupted.
How visits work:
We do visits a little differently, and that’s deliberate.
Children at Young Friends are deeply engaged in their day. We keep visits brief and calm so that what you see is exactly that: children absorbed in what they’re doing, in a setting that hasn’t been tidied up or staged for your arrival.
We prioritise:
children’s engagement and flow
a calm, uninterrupted environment
real, everyday experiences
Our visits are short, low-key, respectful of the children's day
Information Video
Before your visit, we will send you a video introducing our approach, environment and daily practice.
Key Information
You will receive essential information about how we work, what to expect and practical details about the kindergarten.
Come Prepared
Our visits are kept short to keep the children’s day uninterrupted. Jot down any questions beforehand so you’re free to simply watch and take it all in.
During your visit
When you visit:
You will spend a short time in the environment
You can observe children engaged in real experiences
Staff remain focused on the children
This allows you to experience the setting authentically, without interrupting learning.
After your visit
After your visit, you will have time to:
ask questions in a calm space
speak with a member of the team
discuss your child and your needs
We are always happy to talk things through in more detail.
Is this right for you?
Our Kindergarten and approach to visits may feel different.
Our visits are designed for families who want to see real practice rather than a presentation, and who understand that a calm, uninterrupted environment is part of what makes Young Friends work.
