Otter Tots Swim School

Otter Tots Swim School in Sheffield, led by founders Victoria and Alistair Kennedy, specialises in baby and child swimming lessons, teaching water safety and swimming skills from infancy through early teens. With convenient locations at Ecclesall in Sheffield and Ashgate in Chesterfield, Otter Tots ensures a consistent learning environment for young swimmers, starting as early as 10 weeks old.

At Otter Tots, children follow a structured progression: beginning with baby swimming lessons, advancing to toddler confidence and safety classes, and then to beginner and improver lessons from age 4. For advanced swimmers, classes focus on enhancing technique and stamina. All sessions are aligned with the STA international awards system, a mark of high-quality teaching. The school’s qualified and DBS-checked teachers are dedicated to providing exceptional swimming education.

The swim school offers tailored lessons, from small baby classes in specially selected pools to pre-school and school-age lessons that build on and complement any school-taught swimming. Parents find all necessary details, including timetables and pricing, on the Otter Tots website.
