Welcome to our swim school! I setup the school in 2015 after swimming with my daughter as a baby, I loved it so much that I wanted to do it myself and its been a wonderful experience!
I look forward to welcoming you to our lessons very soon! -

I started turtle tots as a client with my son Leo when he was 6 months old and immediately loved it. It was the highlight of both our weeks, we loved the swimming but also the bonding side of it all too. Watching our amazing teacher Nikki made me realise this was something I would love to do and it all went from there! I’ve always had an interest in swimming and I love children so it really is my perfect job.

I was looking for something special to do with my son Rahim, who was 4 months old at the time. As a new mother, I wanted to do something that would create a special bond between us, so I started taking him to the Turtle Tots. We both love our swimming lessons and I now recommend this to every parent! I can’t wait to welcome you and our little one to our lessons.

Turtle Tots has been such an important part of my boys lives and its one of our favourite activities to do together! I was so excited when the opportunity came up to teach at Turtle Tots!
Growing up I spent most of my time being in the pool swimming and I love being able to bring the happiness and joy swimming gives to me to our parents and babies & toddlers.

My little one started her swimming journey with Turtle Tots when she was 6 months old. Nikki was an incredible teacher and very supportive both to Parents and children. A great start to swimming!

I have really enjoyed swimming with turtle tots, it’s useful you can make up a class if you miss one, and the teachers are really lovely. 100% recommend.

I would highly recommend Turtle Tots. Our son was just over a year old when starting and very unhappy in a pool.
The lovely instructors were so patient and supportive and helped get him comfortable in the water.
He now loves swimming and has no fear splashing under the water. I don’t think we would have ever managed to achieve that without their help.Kate -
My daughter could swim a width of the pool unaided before she turned 3 thanks to the brilliant tuition of Turtle Tots. Engaging and fun, but also teaching an essential life skill. Thank you Turtle Tots 🙂

Excellent. It is easy to book and I love you can do catch up sessions if you unfortunately have to miss one. Nikki, our instructor is wonderful. I was worried about my little one going underwater and she answered my concerns and really put me at ease. The pool is lovely and warm for my baby and the class sizes are small. I also like when you move to the next level it’s the same day and time as previous which works great with naps and schedules. My son absolutely loves turtle tots swimming, he gets so excited getting ready for swimming so I would highly recommend.
