Tadpole Beginners
Our Tadpole Beginners programme is designed for babies under 8 months old who are new to swimming or have had little previous experience in the water.
These classes provide the perfect introduction to swimming for both parent and baby, offering a calm, supportive and welcoming environment where you can enjoy quality time together whilst building confidence in the water.
Our carefully structured lessons will introduce you and your baby to a range of gentle swimming activities, helping you feel comfortable moving through the water together from the very beginning. Through songs, games and sensory experiences, we create fun and engaging lessons that encourage learning through play.
As the weeks progress, you'll see your baby's confidence grow as they become more familiar with the water and begin developing the foundations for future swimming skills.
