Baby Swim School

Them a personal understanding and connexion to the importance of teaching babies how to swim. Our instructors are passionate about what they do and provide a nurturing and supportive environment for both parents and babies.

At Baby Swim School, we believe in the importance of giving babies the perfect start in the world of water. Our lessons are specially designed for babies as young as 4 weeks old, allowing them to develop confidence and skills in the water from an early age. We understand that water can be intimidating for babies and parents alike, which is why our instructors focus on creating a gentle and welcoming introduction to swimming.

Our classes are not only designed to teach babies how to swim, but also to provide them with essential life skills. Water safety is a top priority for us, and we aim to teach babies skills that could potentially save their lives. We believe that all babies should have the confidence and knowledge to navigate water safely, and we strive to instil this in our lessons.

In addition to water safety, our classes also provide a range of benefits for babies' physical and cognitive development. Scientists have found that infant and toddler swimming training can increase intelligence, concentration, performance, and perceptual capabilities. Social, physical, and emotional development have also been documented to improve through swimming. Water provides a unique and beneficial environment for babies with special needs, as its buoyancy allows for freedom and provides a calming and stimulating effect.

Our classes are inclusive, welcoming babies and parents with varying abilities and disabilities. We have experience working with parents and babies with hearing and visual impairments, as well as other disabilities. We believe that swimming is a beneficial activity for everyone and strive to create an inclusive environment where all babies can thrive.

At Baby Swim School, we are proud to have a diverse team of instructors who are all fully qualified in baby swimming instruction. Our founder, Zoe, has been running the school since 2009 and is passionate about teaching baby swimming. She has a BTEC National Diploma in Early Childhood Studies and is a fully qualified BPC (Baby and Preschool Certificate) teacher. Zoe has designed her own syllabus, which covers all aspects of baby swimming from water confidence to submersion and independence.

Regular assessments ensure that babies are progressing and learning effectively.

In addition to the swimming lessons, we also offer a unique photo session where underwater shots of babies and parents are captured using Zoe's underwater camera. This is a special opportunity for parents to create lasting memories of their baby's early swimming experiences.

We understand that every baby is unique, which is why our classes are focused on making the experience fun and enjoyable for both baby and parent. We use our own songs and games to create a fun and interactive environment in every class. Our aim is to not only teach swimming skills, but also to create lasting memories and bonding experiences between parents and babies.

At Baby Swim School, we are dedicated to providing the best possible start for babies in the world of water. Our experienced instructors, inclusive environment, and focus on safety and development make us the ideal choice for your baby's swimming journey.
