We're so glad you had an amazing experience with your teacher Carmel. Thank you for letting us know!

Huge improvement
I previously had my son in swimming lessons with another provider. In the year he was there he didnt learn very much and didnt get a lot of teacher time. Since moving to water babies I have seen a huge improvement in his confidence and capabilities in just a few months. The classes are fun and the fact that the parent is in the water really helps the kids. The teachers are fantastic. I can see my son swimming independently in the very near future.

Our parent-and-child approach is designed to make little ones feel safe and supported while they learn, and we’re so pleased you’ve found the classes fun and engaging. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to our teachers — they work incredibly hard to give each child the attention and encouragement they need.
We can’t wait to see your son swimming independently — what an exciting milestone that will be! Thank you again for trusting us with his swimming journey.

Mandatory life lessons
We love coming to our Waterbabies classes on Sunday morning with Bernie! Bernie is so patient and passionate about the lessons. Zura has a great time, and for young children the lessons repeat with slight added on progressions weekly and you may sometimes feel you kids isn’t listening or taking it all in. What proved to us was when we took Zura on her first holiday she was like a duck to water, all the skills linked together and was so easy. Can’t wait to get our newest addition started!

Hi Samuel,
We’re so pleased to hear that you and Zura are enjoying the classes. It’s wonderful to know that the skills she’s learned with Bernie have translated so well during your holiday.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We truly appreciate them and look forward to welcoming your newest addition.
Warm regards,
Water Babies North London :)
Go Somewhere Else!!!
This company and franchise specifically is awful. Terrible customer service, poor management, rubbish communication. The teachers are the only saving grace -- but having had classes with a few now, some of them make the experience worse (Carmel, the owner for example).
Please take your little ones somewhere else. They deserve better than Water Babies North London 🙃 And half of these 5 star reviews are from a teacher, Ana.

I wasn’t sure if my little one will…
I wasn’t sure if my little one will like it but it end up really well, he loves it, loves to be in the water. The teachers are really helpful and they don’t push them if they don’t like it or they are not in the mood, they always advise for a different technique.
We are very happy with our decision.
Looking forward for more sessions.

Dangerous for newborns
Dangerous for newborns. Absolutely freezing temperature in the Oak Lodge facility. We called multiple times at 020 3617 8823 to complain about this, and an extremely rude lady was dismissing it every time. This person claimed to be the business owner, which would make the case even more shocking.
Our son got extremely sick in November after a swimming session, after which the temperature in the changing room was 13 degrees (I decided to bring a thermometer with me to prove my case). You could literally see steam coming out of your mouth in the room.
All parents try to change the babies in the hallway for the babies to not be called.
Absolutely shocking service and management from the HQ.
The actual swimming instructor is extremely lovely, so a huge shame that the lady on the phone made a huge mess of this whole situation.
I do not recommend these services to absolutely any parents, if you want your child to be healthy and safe, or if you want a respectful service.

Hi Vlad
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations, and we take your concerns seriously. We would also like to offer some clarification from our side.
Our facility temperatures are regularly monitored, and our records for November did not indicate levels as low as described. However, we were made aware of an issue with the heating in the changing area at Oak Lodge, which we reported to the school immediately for rectification. We regret that your personal experience felt uncomfortable and left you feeling dissatisfied. We have since reviewed the heating settings at Oak Lodge and are satisfied that the issue has now been resolved.
Regarding your phone conversations with our team, our intention is always to support parents promptly and respectfully. We apologise if our communication did not come across as warmly or helpfully as it could have and we were disappointed that our offer of an alternative venue, along with the partial refund provided, was not accepted.
We are pleased to hear that you found the instructor lovely, as our teaching team works hard to create a positive and safe environment for all families. We would never want any parent to feel unsafe or unheard and welcome all feedback whether positive or negative so we can continue to improve the services we offer.
If you would like the opportunity to discuss your concerns further, please do get in touch.

The Best Swimming Lessons We’ve Ever Had!
I’ve been taking my son to swimming lessons at various leisure centres since he was one year old, but he never really learned how to swim. The classes always felt overcrowded, and the focus was mainly on swimming up and down with floats rather than actually teaching the children proper swimming skills.
After just his first lesson with Water Babies, he was able to put his head under the water — something he had never done before! In only five weeks, he’s learned more than he did in the previous four years of lessons elsewhere. It’s been such a fantastic experience that I’ve now enrolled my daughter too.
I’d recommend Water Babies to anyone and everyone — it’s worth every penny! Thank you, Water Babies!!

The best experience with Water Babies
My son started swimming with Water Babies at 4 months old (he’s now 14 months) we’ve attended weekly lessons, from day one it has been organised, well managed and amazing. The way the lessons are conducted really helps your baby to learn and become confident in the water. My son is striving and I’m so happy with Water Babies and his teachers.

Rude teacher
Rude teacher, poor facilities and same thing every week. I joined the Nuffield Friern Barnet water babies but I ultimately left because I found the tutor Carmel to be rude and occasionally passive aggressive. She forced my son to change his outfit when he was crying and had a go at me for not wanting to immerse my head underneath the water saying I have 2 strikes left. What should have been a fun experience has left me and my son traumatised beyond repair. Also they make you pay one extra month if you want to cancel! No changing facilities for babies either - just a repetitive boring walking around in circles every week. Also spoke to other mums that left they all mentioned it was because of the tutor including my friend Charlotte who said she bullied her too.

Cici!
This review is 5 stars only because of Cici at St John's. She is an incredible person and teacher. She makes all the negative experiences with this company disappear as soon as we're welcomed by her smiling face and genuine demeanour. I really mean genuine - you can tell she cares, she loves children, and she wants to see your child succeed. It actually makes me emotional typing this. My son has sensitivities and feels energies, and as soon as we met Cici and experienced our first session with her, I knew she was the right one! We have had fine experiences with other teachers here but Cici is on another level. My son's engagement and joy (joy is another word for Cici!) in every lesson has been an utter treat to witness. I am so grateful to her beautiful spirit, patience, and sheer talent as a teacher (and human!).
