Do not recommend, lessons at Cardinal Wiseman…
My son has had lessons at Cardinal Wiseman. I really wanted to love water babies but I really am glad my sons lessons have come to an end. The lessons were okay and had some fun elements. However, for the price you pay I do not feel that it is good value for money. The pool is quite small and it does not feel warm enough for adults let alone babies. The changing facilities are really crammed and not baby friendly, when the changing room gets wet it can be quite unsafe. The teacher (Laura) was in no way inclusive. She seemed to focus on a set few children learning their names and picking them for tasks however she barely acknowledged my son. I take my son to a number of baby classes and they are very baby led and the teacher makes you feel comfortable. However, during these lessons if my son was crying i felt like I was inconveniencing the rest of the class (for the first lesson I actually got out of the pool because of this). The last lesson my husband was in the pool, I could see that my husband was struggling with certain positions and despite correcting other parents and providing support she didn’t bother or acknowledge with my son or husband. My son also missed a few lessons due to being unwell and us being on holiday, rearranging was quite difficult so I just didn’t bother. Overall would not be recommending water babies to others and have booked on to local classes which are far cheaper.
