5* Lessons, Changing Area 1*

The lessons received from Nat are absolutely 5* no complaints at all in fact if I could give more stars to Nat I would. However the changing facilities are dire! The floor and changing mats are always swimming in dirty water so deep in places that I have to turn up my trousers. My granddaughter at 18 months sat down not only was the floor so wet that she was soaked through I was shocked to see the amount of dirt clinging to her wet clothes. I continue to come to the lessons as the times work for me and that Nat is such a good teacher not only for the children but the adults too :)

Very enthusiastic and engaging teacher

Our son joined Water Babies just before turning 4, prior to this he wasn’t confident in the water at all but since only having a few lessons his confidence has grown greatly and he really looks forward to each lesson. The teacher is amazing and tailors the group lessons to the individual children, she is very engaging.

Amy is a superb teacher

Amy is a superb teacher. Every lesson so well planned, great progressions and relationship with little one. Couldn’t ask for a better teacher!
The only negative is the inconsistency of Hempstalls pool and how often lessons are cancelled due to this.

Yes they are a little bit expensive but I cannot put a price of safety. My son has learnt so much since going to these lessons and he loves going. I cannot recommend better swimming lessons. We have been to other companies and water babies is by far the best we’ve found.

Our baby has loved her swimming lessons…

Our baby has loved her swimming lessons with Abbie. It's amazing how Abbie remembers all of the kids names and builds relationships with them and their parents. Our baby has really grown in confidence in the water and we really notice when she hasn't had a lesson. The only negative I would say is that when new babies join the group it can be quite disruptive to the classes and it would be much better to go in blocks with the same children where possible so that they all advance at the same rate.

Little mermaid

Loved the underwater photoshoot with my 5 month old dressed as a mermaid! Very fitting for the scene!
John the instructor was brilliant at taking the babies down under the water quickly and calmly, remaining professionally at all times, whilst the camera woman was snapping the photos.
Laura was there to aid the everyone into positions, keeping babies entertained in the water while waiting there turn to go under for shoot, using parts of the usual lessons to keep occupied.
All in all brilliant service and beautiful photos at the end!
Very pleased!!

Definitely recommend for getting you little one in to water

We love our swimming lessons at dairy farm. The lesson is always well delivered and engaging for the children.

The changing room facilities could do with a little tlc.

My experience

I started lessons with my Grandaughter who was 8 months old at the time. The first 2 lessons she cried and Natalie the instructor was very helpful and supportive. After that my Granddaughter has loved of minute. The lessons are good and Natalie was brilliant. She was approachable, friendly, welcoming, supportive and no matter what she always had plenty of smiles and made time for us all with in the group. We have now started with Lucy in September and it is still good, however Natalie is missed as she knew us all and we had that bond. I am sure the same will happen with Lucy as well. I would highly recommend water babies and this really helps with life skills for when they become bigger children. There is a wide variety of different skills, side swimming, front swimming, hold on positions, underwater and lots of singing with lots of praise and encouragement.

Lucy at M Club - Trent Vale

We started water babies when my baby was three months old at M club in Trentvale with Lucy. I only intended on doing the introduction of eight lessons however have continued these due to us both enjoying them so much! The skills that they teach the babies are great, and I love seeing my little one enjoy swimming so much. Lucy is fantastic and makes every lesson a wonderful experience.

The teachers are amazing and lessons…

The teachers are amazing and lessons engaging. Sadly we could never recommend, so much time was wasted with re branding that didn't ever change or translate to the classes, other than less badges and there were so many problems with venues we missed an insane amount of lessons over the years. Ruined the experience given the price.

Absolutely wonderful

I have been taking my little one to water babies at Dairy House Farm in Nantwich since he was 12 weeks- he is 7 months now & it is truly the highlight of our week! He absolutely loves it, has a constant smile on his face the whole time! We have learned so many skills so far with Amy (who is such a wonderful teacher) which will be so valuable to him as he becomes older! 100% worth the money for the invaluable skills he has learned and not to mention the huge smile he has on his face everytime!

Levi’s Parents…

We have recently started swimming lessons for our son on a Sunday morning at Hempstalls with Lucy! Lucy is amazing! She takes the time to really explain things & the confidence our little boy now has is amazing! She really knows how to push for that little bit more, which is what we wanted! The progress is such a short amount of time is phenomenal. We really feel like nothing is ever too much for Lucy and would highly highly recommend! (The pool is also lovely and warm which is a nice added bonus!)
