We love water babies

We love water babies! Our teacher Jenny is just fantastic! I was really nervous taking my daughter swimming for the first time. Jenny makes the lessons fun and gave me the confidence to progress through the techniques.

Harper is getting so confident with swimming and I can see how it has also improved her physical development out of the water!

We love our lessons!!!.

I was very nervous taking my little one into the water, but wanted to start her swimming young. Our swimming instructor Allison is absolutely amazing!!!! She put us at ease at our first lesson. My little girl loves going to her lessons every week and we have both gained alot of confidence in the water. I would recommend waterbabies to everyone.

Love the classes love our instructor and it’s great to see how much our wee man has learnt and his confidence in the water he can swim the length of the 6meter pool now still has lots to learn and correct but he’s doing amazing for less than a year in lessons.

Under Water Photoshoot

Our swimming lessons are in a leisure centre so this was a very different venue to what we are used to. Changing facilities are very limited and the water is deeper than we are used to. I wasn't expecting a full 30min swimming lesson to go along with our photoshoot - but that was welcome! Most of the staff were helpful and friendly but being honest, I was left feeling disappointed by a couple of comments made by one staff member.

A must do!

My son has been going to Water Babies since he was 6 weeks old. He’s now 15 months and the progress he has made is phenomenal. He has gained so much confidence & his lessons are a highlight of our week. His teacher Hollie is absolutely fantastic & we have both learnt so much from her. I cannot recommend Water Babies enough, as a means of bonding with your baby, getting out & about & meeting other parents, but most importantly, teaching your child an important life skill. The lessons are so much fun & tailored to every age group.
