Puddle Ducks’ effective, child-led baby and child swimming classes are all about fun, confidence, grace and safety in the water. We teach life-saving skills, so that should your child ever need them, they have a bank of invaluable skills that could save their life. 

Each class lasts half an hour and provides a wonderful bonding opportunity for parents and their little ones. We have excellent teacher-student ratios which means we can offer truly individually-tailored swimming lessons for babies, toddlers and children that let them learn with other children of their age, all at their own pace. 

Quality of teaching has been our top priority for 20 years, and we’re constantly evolving our teaching programme and methods to make sure your children receive the very best swimming lessons out there. All of our classes combine a carefully balanced set of activities including group and individual work, swimming, floating (without armbands!), songs and games. We’re big on fun, and our classes incorporate rhyme, music and movement based on extensive child development research.
