Water Babies - Bolton Avis 

If you’re considering water babies, go for it! Erin has been going since she was 3 weeks old and still attending weekly at 2years old! She is now so confident in the water and she get so excited for her lessons! Lucy is wonderful with all of the children and the lessons are very well structured. :)

Luci is an excellent teacher. She is patient, encouraging and professional. Highly recommended.

We have absolutely loved bringing our 10-month-old to water babies Bolton! The classes are well-structured, combining fun nursery rhymes with essential water safety skills. Our instructor,Luci, is incredibly patient and excellent at tracking milestones like breath control and kicking on the ledge. The pool temperature is perfectly warm for infants, and the family changing rooms are clean and spacious. I’ve seen a massive boost in my baby's water confidence. Highly recommend.

Filippos has been attending swimming lessons with Luci for the past year and he absolutely loves it ! He is 19 months old and he managed to swim on his own for a second ! It’s also great for us as we have some quality family time in the pool. I would recommend 100%

I started my swimming journey with my daughter Aria when she was 3 months old
Aria developed very well enjoying the lessons and simultaneously enjoying bath times!
Since the very beginning The staff at water babies have helped aria develop her water confidence and underwater skills. After the very few first sessions aria confidence in water increased significantly and she became confident in the rhymes and schedules of the session
Since then aria has been amazing in water and loved coming to classes each week

At 8 months due to work commitments I left water babies and signed up with another baby swimming programme
This was nothing compared to water babies and aria did not enjoy it as much as she loved her water babies classes- I have now signed up with water babies again and I know I won’t regret this decision
Aria is now in millwood classes on Sunday with Luci
She has had her first session of the term and has loved it

The swimming teacher Luci was very attentive to my babies needs. It was his first time and she made me feel so welcome.

We started Water Babies with our little boy when he was just 5 weeks old as we were really keen to ensure that he learned how to be safe in water. Now aged 3, he is so confident in the water, able to swim short distances never having needed any swim aids. He absolutely loves the water and his classes.
We first stated classes with Helena who is absolutely amazing with the little ones and makes the classes fun and engaging with lots of songs and smiles.
Due to our availability we moved class days (we love the flexibility with Water Babies with various venues and dates) and Denise taught the class. We were apprehensive to move but need not have been as again, Denise is wonderful and our little boy took to her instantly.
We now do classes at Bolton One with Sam, an incredible teacher who threads learning, social skills and fun into ever session.

All the venues we have attended over the past 3 years have been well considered and fit for purpose for little ones. Water Babies is so well designed, little people have fun without realising just how much they are learning. It is pleasing to see that there is such a good mix of people attending to with mum's and dads getting in the water with their children.

I see our son on holiday wanting to get in the pool, not afraid to jump in and knowing how to keep safe. This was evidenced when he fell into a pool and immediately swam to the side and moved himself round to the steps without any shred of panic. (Family were with him in the pool).

Of all the decisions I have made for my little one as a first time mum, this was by far the best and something I will do again if we are blessed with any more children.

Great staff! We feel completely safe, and my baby boy loves it!! All the best recommendations :)

My daughter has been having lessons since she was 2 months old and she loves them. We are so happy with her lessons/ progress. She has the biggest smile on her face when we start getting her ready for her lesson and she always leaves the lesson with a giggle and a smile. I'm so happy that we stay with our little group as well instead of changing timeslots/ days when they get older. She has started to build friendships and I have enjoyed chatting and building friendships with the other mums.

Since starting here with my daughter at 16 weeks old it has just been the best! We couldn’t recommend it enough! Denise and Evie as teachers have just been amazing, make you feel so relaxed and confident before and during the swimming lesson. My daughter was sitting unassisted before 5 months and it was 100% the swimming lessons that gave her the core strength! It’s our favourite thing to do each and every week!

Been going for some time now in dukinfield had Denise doing the lesson and she was amazing had a lot of information and guidance, we now have Evie who does the lessons and she is very good but in complete different way to Denise she just needs more confidence talking with groups of people

We have been going to water babies since our daughter was 8 weeks old. She is now 15 months and still loves it. It’s such a nice time for her and her dad to enjoy :). She is confident in the water and loves being in it!

Was really nervous about taking my babu swimming but family recommended water babies and so glad they did now its our favourite day of the week. My babys confidence in water is brilliant and we did the underwatershoot and the pictures are amazing. Such a lovely welcoming place for your baby to learn one of the most important life skills

Great lessons, interactive and calm for the babies, and great for learning safety in water!

Both my children have been swimming with waterbabies since they were a few months old. My eldest has just finished after 5 years and is so confident in the water and has learnt so much , would definitely recommend.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ed absolutely loves Water Babies! It’s been fantastic for his confidence, balance and development — helping him reach so many milestones. Lucy is brilliant and he comes out beaming.

We love our swimming lessons with water babies and have been attending for over 4 years now our little boys age 4 and 2 are always excited to get in the water the teachers are calming and encouraging and help the children to build their skills and confidence each week. The small classes make it easy for them to progress each week.

We have just started our Waterbabies journey and are a couple lessons in and we love it! It's a lovely environment, clean and really like that you can have someone watch, as i know it isn't possible at all venues. Denise & Jake are very welcoming and jovial, without being over the top and false. I feel they genuinely are passionate about water safety and are great with the group. As we are Team Pearl, it's a new thing for us and our first step into baby classes and we have a small and lovely group which has been wonderful and not overwhelming. Would definitely recommend Water Babies!

I’ve only been taking my little girl to Water Babies the past few weeks and she loves it so much. The classes are great, I would highly recommend the Worsley water babies. Ive had two different instructors and both have been great. Im looking forward to seeing whats to come. Elle

My son has been going since he was 3 month old and loves it every single Saturday. They show you exactly what to do during the lesson and are so helpful if the little one becomes unsettled at all. The parent portal is so helpful in seeing what my son is learning past, present and in the future. You can be absent from a lesson but rearrange it for another time so your child doesn’t miss what they are doing.
