Meet the Central Scotland Team

Clare

Hi everyone, I’m Clare and I own Turtle Tots Central Scotland.
When the opportunity arose to run a Turtle Tots business I took a leap of faith after being a teacher for 5 years.
I was first introduced to the Turtle Tots magic after taking my first daughter to a class which we both loved!
My passion for teaching babies and toddlers to swim is obvious as I never stop smiling during teaching the lessons -it truly is a dream job.
I can’t wait to welcome you to our award-winning classes across Perthshire, Stirling, Falkirk, West Lothian, North & South Lanarkshire, East Renfrewshire and Ayrshire!
Aynsley

We are so delighted to have Aynsley as part of our team at Turtle Tots.
She is our senior teacher at East Kilbride our Ayrshire classes at Sundrum
Aynsley has a wealth of swimming teaching experience, which coupled with our intensive Turtle Tots training in Bristol has equipped her with all the specialist knowledge to deliver our award-winning learn to swim programme to our little Turtles every week.
We always receive great feedback from our swimmers and families who look forward to their weekly class with her! She has a wonderful, kind nature in the water and will ensure your swimmers are learning their key safety skills alongside swimming and water confidence activities at their weekly class.
Corina

Corina joined Turtle Tots as a teacher back in 2016. Corina had previously attended Turtle Tots classes, with her daughter Robyn. Robyn started classes when she was 3 months old and it soon became the highlight of their week.

Corina teaches our award-winning classes at Fauldhouse on Fridays and Braes High School & James Young High School on Sundays.

Corina said, “My favourite aspect of this job is seeing the achievements of all of my little turtles and how much they love swimming.”
Katie

We are so delighted to have Katie as part of our team at Turtle Tots.
She is our teacher at Dunblane Hydro on Fridays and also teaches our Perthshire classes at Strathallan School on Sundays.
She has a wonderful, kind nature in the water and will ensure that your swimmers are learning their key safety skills alongside their swimming and water confidence activities at their weekly class. Our Turtles really look forward to their weekly class with Katie. Katie says “When I started Turtle Tots with my first son 7 years ago it was the highlight of our week! It didn’t take long for me to realise I wanted to be a teacher and I can’t wait to help you start your Turtle Tots journey. See you in the pool!”

Reviews

We have throughly enjoyed our block with TT.
The classes have really helped build my confidence in the pool with my baby. Classes are well paced, instructions are clear & you can take everything at the pace you feel comfortable with.

Our instructor Loll was great!
