Water Babies - Notts & Derby Avis 

Our instructor Michelle is absolutely amazing. So lovely, friendly and knowledgable and helps make new mums feel at ease. Her lessons are fun for the adults aswell as the babies! It always feels so personal! Our favourite time of the week!

Waterbabies is my favourite baby class of the week with my 5 month old!
I can’t believe how much he has learned and progressed in the water already and it’s making me more confident too. Our instructor, Hayley, is just a joy! She’s so supportive and understanding and my little boy loves her! Couldn’t recommend Waterbabies enough.

Water babies has been amazing for my little girl. She’s come on leaps and bounds in the water, I don’t know who enjoys the classes more me or her lol. Can’t fault water babies from top to bottom admin staff are super helpful and friendly and the instructors are amazing

Our Son has been attending Waterbabies swimming lessons from 9 weeks old and absolutely loves them. The hydropool we swim at is perfect and clean! We did get moved to another pool for a short period of time due to building issues which wasn't ideal but it was quickly resolved! Our Son thoroughly enjoys his swimming lessons and we do believe his development has come on leaps and bounds since starting them. We cannot rate Waterbabies enough - thank you.

Sessions are cancelled every month without 24hr notice. Instructors show favouritism & on many sessions the instructors excersices exceeded the guidelines of 4 submersions in one session. This is a session of babies under 1 year.

Good swimming instructors, my baby now loves swimming and looks forward for the swimming class every week.

My two toddlers come swimming every Sunday, they can't wait to see their teachers and they've learned so much from these lessons. Highly recommend it 👌

The classes are amazing, very well structured, with good use of equipment, and very well tailored to each age.

I just haven't given 4 stars for the following reasons:
1) The changing facilities in Nottingham (Mercure Hotel, Sherwood) are no good for babies. It a very small facility with only one changing table and very little space. When we finish class and you have all those babies wet and needing to get changed, it becomes very crowded and most end up changing the babies over a towel on the floor.
2) Although there is a structured programme where each student achieves their skills in their own time, and this is recorded in your login site, we don't get any explanation regarding the programme, what the skills and "treasures" mean (they fancy names of the sort of "cloudfish cove"), and I don't really know what my child is doing well at and where she needs more work.
3) The price is just really high compared to any other swimming class (over twice as much as most)

great classes , great trainer at portland college. l recommend this to anyone who wants their children to learn how to swim

We had underwater photos taken with Waterbabies and what a lovely experience. The team were so professional and lovely. They made me and my little one feel very relaxed and we got some fabulous photos from the shoot! Well worth the money and we can’t wait to get our photos printed and up on the wall:

My baby has attended since he was 8 weeks old. Swimming is a life skill and Water Babies build up theses skills each week even from the age of 8 weeks. I know in time my boy will bea confident independent swimmer and safe around water. I can't thank Michelle enough, her praise, patience and bubbly positive attitude brightens even those harder days with a small baby. Michelle is such an asset to Water Babies! Thank you!

We have recently attended an underwater photo shoot, our first one to be precise.
Although we haven’t received the pictures our experience was a great one, the team in the pool made my little girl feel so comfortable she did an amazing job going in.
Thank you for the experience guys xx

Everyone very carefully about Payment!
If we want to stop the lessons need to pay 4 lessons payment more to them. also if we not inform them before stop they says it is a subscription so we need to pay all the due payment until it cancels.
