I started taking my son from when he was 12 weeks old . I felt very welcomed and trusted the instructor immediately. Very happy bubily instructor. My husband now takes our son and not only is this a great bonding session, but my husband looks forward to the sessions. Our little one is always excited as soon as he gets into the water. Would 1000% recommend to do this.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review and kind words! We're delighted to hear that you've felt welcomed and confident with us from the very beginning of your swimming journey.
It's lovely to know the sessions have become such a special bonding time for your husband and son, and that your little one is so excited to get into the water each week! Creating joyful, confidence-building experiences like this is exactly what we're all about.
Thank you for the glowing recommendation; it means a lot to us.
Jackie is the BEST!
What can I say about our classes with WB and especially Jackie, as she is the BEST! I have been coming to WB for some time now for both my girls- older one is 10 and younger will be 4.
Sadly we had to say goodbye to Jackie and our lovely class as my little one starts school in September. We always had so much fun and very much looked forward to our Fridays. Although we had some difficulties fitting the time to make sure we have our classes with Jackie we carried on coming to our sessions. She has been an amazing instructor, calm, and very patient. She encouraged both my girls to try hard and have fun at the same time.
Jackie has been a big part of the swimming journey for my both girls and I am so so grateful for this.
I hope you are lucky to have your class with Jackie, if you choose Waterbabies.

Thank you so much for your lovely five-star review and kind words about Jackie. We’re thrilled to hear how much your daughters have enjoyed their journey with Water Babies.
We know how special those Friday sessions have been, and we’re so pleased you persevered to keep them going. It’s always bittersweet when little ones move on, but we’re honoured to have been part of their early swimming memories.
As your youngest starts school, we hope to welcome your family back in the future as we’ll soon be offering lessons for children aged 5 and over!
Great classes
My daughter learned how to swim very fast and enjoyed all her classes with teacher Jackie .

Super lessons, fab teacher
Great swimming class and teacher is fab! Both my girls swim with waterbabies and it’s one of their favourite times of the week. Been swimming with them for over 3 years now. Learning such valuable water safety skills! Having lessons to learn to swim is expensive but so worth it. They are confident in the water and have loads of fun too.

Water Babies’ Underwater Shoot
We’ve attended the underwater shoot of Water Babies 2 weeks ago and I just received the photos today. All I can say is it is all worth it! My little one enjoyed the shoot itself as they have a set program to keep the babies busy while waiting for their turn. The photos all looked amazing that we cannot pick just one and had to buy the whole album for us to keep and send to our relatives back home. What a great experience and I will surely do this again in the future!

Choose jackie and waterbabies!
Love love waterbabies - but especially our teacher, jackie. We have been swimming with her since joe was 3 months old (now 3) and she is the best. Calm, funny, great with the kids, and joe has come on so much. He adores the water. Recommend anyone to join waterbabies - and if you get jackie, lucky you!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We're delighted to hear how much you and your little one have enjoyed your Water Babies classes and that your experience has been so positive. Jackie has absolutely loved having Joe in her classes and is incredibly proud of the fantastic progress he’s made. It's always a joy for us to see our little swimmers grow in confidence and ability through their swimming journey.
Instructors are amazing !
We absolutely love our lessons with Waterbabies. Our eldest started at 9 months and has just graduated, complete with her Swim England Level 3. Jackie managed to take a little girl who was afraid to get her face wet and turn her in to a canon-balling, diving and amazingly confident 10 metre swimmer !
Our youngest has Down Syndrome and the team assured us that there was no reason she couldn’t join classes too, so she began at just 5 weeks old and is absolutely thriving and maintaining pace with her peers, 3.5 years later. Jackie has been amazing with her and knows exactly how to adapt activities to best support her when needed.
We’ve had other teachers over the years when we’ve needed to swap a session and they have all been truly brilliant, but Jackie really is outstanding, an absolute asset to the team.

3 years of fantastic swimming lessons
Our daughter has been having swimming lessons with Water Babies for over 3 years. At all stages, the lessons have been full of skills content and fun. She loves the lessons each week (so do I) and we have made good friends in the classes we’ve attended. Our swimming teacher Jackie has always given 100% to make sure all the children make great progress. It’s always very clear why we’re doing what we’re doing. It’s been wonderful to see our daughter developing into a competent swimmer, but most of all she is confident and safe in the water and absolutely loves swimming. We couldn’t be more pleased!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your positive experience with us. It really means a great deal to Jackie and the whole team to know how much you’ve valued your Water Babies lessons.
Watching our little swimmers grow into confident, capable, and safe swimmers is incredibly rewarding. Swimming is not only a vital life skill, but it also plays a key role in a child’s physical and mental development. That’s why we’re always delighted to hear how our lessons are making a meaningful difference.
Your feedback is deeply appreciated and motivates us to continue delivering the very best experience for our little swimmers.
Really amazing experience for both baby…
Really amazing experience for both baby and mum. The instructor was very adaptive to each baby and would modify any of the swims in case a baby was crying or if the mum wasn't comfortable (e.g. going underwater). It was just too expensive for me to continue

Really friendly staff who obviously care! My son has autism and a severe learning disability which is taken into account, but it is made sure doesn't impact the other neurotypical children/parents experience. It's welcoming for all and my son is doing so well with his swimming. We've been with Water Babies for must be 4+ years now!
