About FriendlySpaces - join the pilot!

We’re making Switzerland more family-friendly – starting where families are often overlooked: in cafés, shops, and cultural venues. FriendlySpaces is a new label for places that offer more than just a high chair: play opportunities, space for strollers, creative kids’ menus, and a team that truly understands families. We are currently looking for our first partner businesses for the pilot phase. Be part of the movement – from the very beginning.

The Friendly Spaces Playbox

Not sure where to start when it comes to making your place more child-friendly? That’s exactly what the FriendlySpaces PlayBox is for. Our subscription service provides a customized box filled with toys for children aged 0–5. Every four months, we visit for a quality check and replace any missing or broken pieces. This way, you can offer families the best experience — with one less thing to worry about.
