The swim instructors are fantastic, we had 2 in our time with water babies. From our first lesson when my little one was 6 weeks old to my last session when she was 8 months old. They were kind, helpful & most of all kept us safe in the water whilst having fun and bonding with our babies. It definitely helped my confidence & my little one has always loved the water & isn't scared at all. The only reason for 1 star short of 5 was the venue, because it is a private school it wasn't catered for the usual public swimming. So the changing facilities weren't set up with cubicles, showers, changing tables for babies etc. However, it was very local for us, so we were happy to compromise on this. We could have had lessons further afield with a more formal changing facility but this wasn't practical for us to travel.
Toria the waterbabies instructor at jethen house is absolutely amazing!! She goes above and beyond to make parents and children feel comfortable, supported and heard. Nothing is too much trouble and any concerns you have regarding swimming with your little one is always taken into consideration and the support you didnt even know you needed is alway's given to make you feel confident and ready to swim with you baby. You can really tell the passion she has for waterbabies not only as an instructor but also as a parent who has been through it twice. Im so so glad I chose waterbabies and im so so glad we were put into Torias class.
Lessons are progressive and so much fun for me and my daughter. We have been attending since she was 12 weeks old and have no intentions to stop. The confidence gained in just 14 weeks is incredible. Lessons do tend to run late meaning we start later than expected, and this obviously will happen when dealing with children! but I have noticed that our session is occasionally cut five minutes short which is disappointing considering each session is over £20 for half hour.

The teachers are amazing and lessons engaging. Sadly we could never recommend, so much time was wasted with re branding that didn't ever change or translate to the classes, other than less badges and there were so many problems with venues we missed an insane amount of lessons over the years. Ruined the experience given the price.

The company is very communicative, has loads of fun extra activities, and our instructor, Bethany is brilliant. She gives great instructions, is patient, and helps the babies have a fun time.

Great instructor who knows how to make both parents and babies feel comfortable. My son has so much confidence in the water from starting water babies at 8 weeks old. One of the best things I’ve done with my baby he absolutely loves it!

Amazing friendly staff and the lessons are much better than other classes I’ve tried. More expensive than others but definitely worth it!

We love our classes, probably more than our son. We started when he was 6 weeks old and loves the water!! It’s helped him enjoy his baths but his safety and swimming skills are fast developing!! You can see how he already recognises the word association and routine of the swims. Our teacher always explains what and why the babies do certain swims which I think is so important.

My experience is great because of the way emily explains every thing before doing it, also shows example and makes sure you are happy doing that with your little one, if not it’s fine, also very patient with them when all they wanna do is cry lol, my little one enjoys it now, we always look up to Sundays for our class

The small class sizes, the quality of the teaching and the amount of fun the children have is brilliant. Each child is treated as an individual. Teachers are supportive but will challenge the kids as needed and show that they believe in the children. The skills are built up under the guise of fun and the children all seem to have great technique as a result of the teaching. My son has extra needs but the teachers have engaged him and he’s learnt to swim independently. More importantly he enjoys it! The only negatives are that the parent portal can be confusing to navigate but I believe this is being worked on.

Our swim instructor is personable and it’s lovely how he remembers all the children’s names and their little personality traits, we’ve been attending for a year now and it’s amazing to see how my daughters confidence has grown in the water and lovely to see her learning new skills. I would highly recommend water babies.

We have been going to WaterBabies since my daughter was about 9/10months. Absolutely excellent experience, nurturing and caring teachers and consistency in teaching. Highly recommend Jodie Laing
