Children and Family

If you're bringing your family to Leeds when you come to study, find out about family life on and off campus to make the move as smooth as possible so that your new life in Leeds gets off to a good start.

As a student parent you can find out more about identifying suitable childcare, locating on-campus family-friendly facilities, meeting other student parents and participating in family activities. If you find out that you're pregnant, then we're also here to support you.

Childcare

If you have children, it's likely that at some stage you'll need to arrange childcare so you can concentrate on your studies.

Family activities

Leeds has lots of family-friendly activities in and around the surrounding areas that you and your family can enjoy. There's something for everyone, so why not get out and explore?

Pregnancy

We believe that being pregnant, terminating a pregnancy or having children or other caring responsibilities should not be a barrier to success at the University.

Meet other parents

Meeting other student parents and their children is a great way to make new friends, and an opportunity to offer one another mutual support and take part in family-friendly social activities.

Campus facilities

The University campus has a wide range of facilities, from cafes and bars, to libraries, IT assistance and security services.
