How would it be expressed in London?

: We used this term for the English language version we had in our area. 'English open preschool.' But does it exist in London? Or anywhere else? Your target audience? Anyone in Swe will understand, even when translated to Somali, Arabic and all.

Voluntary preschool
Something in line with support center and meeting ground for children and parents. Not sure if it grasps the whole meaning…
Discussion
Anyway, everyone in education in Sweden will understand what a "open preschool is" - especially as the Swedish term is a mixture of Swedish and English.
