Little one enjoyed the first lesson & lovely to get out /teacher was pleasant/friendly etc! However every other lesson was based on getting head under the water. I felt as though as soon as the first lesson was done , every other just focused on getting them underwater. I understand that it’s a crucial part of learning & I am well aware of the reasons behind getting little ones under water to increase their chances of being early swimmers/safety etc. However - I feel like it was solely based around this- every lesson was leading up to it , if you like. This made it feel like a bit of a chore and took the fun aspect away- it leads me to believe it’s a little exploitative- making parents believe this is the only way your child will ever swim or be confident in water. The photo shoot at the end is a massive money making scheme & I don’t feel it’s necessary (some parents do & that’s why water babies are so successful which is totally fine ) however in my opinion, learning the safety skills and having fun singing splashing etc should be paramount. I feel there should be much more ample time for a baby to progress towards going underwater - not in the second lesson. Each to their own but I’ll be taking little one somewhere where there is less focus on money making & more on the swimming , fun & safety aspect itself. Hope this helps someone decide if worth their money /time
