How to hide GUI and chilren?

Okay so maybe it's just me but I can not figure this out and google hasn't helped either.

I have a few scroll bars with different content each. They will have buttons, Images, text, sliders and whatever. I want an individual "Scroll View" and all of it's content/children to be hidden as well and unhide them when I need them. I don't want to disable it. I'm basically getting the Scroll Views and their content with...

  Transform[] allChildren = GetComponentsInChildren<Transform>();
       foreach (Transform child in allChildren) 
       {
           //code that hides stuff
       }

I did try looking in the editor at their components and then the "//code that hides suff" would be

 if(child.getcomponent<whateverComponentItWas>() != null)// to check if actually had it so it didn't throw an error
 {
     child.getComponent<WhatverComponent>().enabled = false;
 }

but I was thinking that there has got to be a better way to do this because its taking up resources getting every component of every child.

So how do I do this?
