Another successful & joyful course nearly completed. We focused on water safety & essential water skills with lots of turning underwater practice.
I'm teaching 2 summer courses - both 5 weeks - & I have a very few spaces left if you'd like to join us.
If you'd like to be added to my list for courses starting in October then just send me a message 💦
Wishing everyone a safe & happy summer ☀️

This course was all about floating and kicking on our backs - which some children are resistant to & some absolutely love.
It's an essential water skill to be comfortable on your back so that faces are out of the water to breathe or rest. We made the exercises fun & also practiced water safety exercises as always.
The next course - focusing on water safety - is fully booked - but I will be teaching 2 short summer courses of 5 weeks each. Priority booking is given to current swimmers but please message me if you'd like to be added to my list. I teach babies from 6 months & children (non swimmers) up to 4 years💦

Lots of happy babies & toddlers on the last course - looking forward to more swimming starting next week. Classes will be focusing on being on our backs - an essential safety skill & a lot of fun to practice.
Please message if you'd like to join the waitlist for future courses. Courses are usually for 5 weeks - to fit into the school term times - but there will be swimming in the summer holidays too 💦

We had a wonderful 5 weeks of water safety exercises & practice in the warm & cosy ARB pool.
The next course will have water safety exercises as always - & also focusing on water confidence, breath control & underwater swimming - all with fun & smiles & at the child's pace. Winter swimming is also fantastic exercise for babies & children.
There are 3 baby places available for the next course (6-12 months) starting either 24th or 25th February for 5 weeks. Class time is 2-2.30pm on either Tuesdays or Wednesdays.
Please also message - for all ages from 6 months to 4 years - to be added to the waitlist for courses after Easter 💦💦

Wishing all my swimmers & families Happy New Year with many wonderful experiences in 2026.
Here are some confident happy smiles from the pool on the last course when we were focusing on being on our backs 💦
I teach babies from 6 months up to children aged 4 (non swimmers) & I'm excited to have 6 new babies starting their water journey with me in January.
I teach from the Gharb Council (ARB) indoor & heated pool - the changing area is warm & cosy. I teach in very small age groups rather than 'levels' so each child has individual attention & progresses at their own pace 💦
The January 5 week course is almost full (starts 13th/14th January) & we will be focusing on water safety 💦
Then one weeks break followed by another 5 week course. I offer a replacement class if you can't attend one class. Places come up on every course as older children no longer need me or if family circumstances change - so - if you'd like to join my waitist or have any questions just send me a message 💦

We had an amazing 5 weeks of swimming in October - here are a selection of fun photos 💦
I now have 2 last minute spaces in my 2 & 3 year olds class on Tuesdays 3-3.30pm if anyone would like to join us - at the Gharb Council indoor heated pool (ARB).
If you would like to add your child to my waitlist for the January course just send me a message 💦

I have 2 last minute spaces in my baby classes for ages 6-12 months 🥳
One space on Tuesdays 2-2.30pm
One space Wednesdays 2-2.30pm
Starting next week on either 30th September or 1st Oct for 5 weeks.
I focus on water safety and water confidence (which leads to independent swimming). An adult is in the pool holding each baby as I only use swim aids occasionally and I encourage underwater swimming - all at the baby's (or child's) individual pace 💦
My classes are a calm and social bonding experience for parents and babies. They are structured, fun, educational & progressive. Being in water aids cognitive development and coordination with repetitive activites, songs and games. Swimming also strengthens muscles, heart and lungs which can help sleeping and eating patterns 💦
My class times on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at ARB pool (indoor heated) are :
2-2.30pm - 6-12 months
2.30-3pm - 1 & 2 year olds
3-3.30pm - 2 & 3 year olds
3.30-4pm - 3 & 4 year olds
