"Absolutely love, love Water Babies! It's incredible! So much fun and looking forward to Chapter 6!" Emily B 5* review
#BenefitsOfBabySwimming It’s great for their physical and mental health.
... With childhood obesity levels still worryingly high, swimming is a great way of getting little ones exercising from a young age. And it's great exercise for you too, a typical session burns over 200 calories.
Every Water Babies lesson provides a complete physical work-out, strengthening your baby's heart and lungs and in turn aiding development of the brain — including stimulating all 5 senses (taste, smell, touch, sight and sound).

We started Waterbabies when my son was just 8wks old and now at 2 years old he is still loving it and it's just incredible what he can do now! The safety techniques that Waterbabies teach in the pool is so valuable and getting young babies used to being in water so early on, is so important. The staff are so friendly and supportive (special thanks to Jo and Lisa who teach us at Weymouth) I would thoroughly recommend Waterbabies and cannot rate them highly enough!

Waterbabies is excellent, Tia enjoys it so much and can't wait for her lesson each week. I can't believe what the toddlers are able to do at such a young age. The staff are all excellent.

Anyone out there that wants their child to love the water then book with waterbabies

This is by far the most valuable class we have enrolled Alice onto! She loves Lynsey and Friday at 4pm is the highlight of the week! Cannot recommend highly enough! Xx

The most amazing experience and so worth it. We started our little boy at 3months old and we haven't looked back, he's almost 4 and such a confident little fish in water and already achieved awards at such a young age with the help of the fabulous teachers. A magical bonding experience for you and your baby too.

The Gunner family love water babies. Can't recommend them highly enough, by far the best thing I've done with all 3 of mine! They have all loved it. Great team behind the scenes too, so helpful and friendly x

So glad we found this for our little man, he has been swimming with Sarah since he was 2 months old. He absolutely loves the water, it's so nice to see his confidence grow and also gives him and daddy quality time together x

Our son was 7 weeks when he started Water Babies & is 8 months this weekend! He loves his Saturday dip with his Dad & we believe it's really helping with his confidence both in the pool & on dry land!

My little one loves water babies he has been swimming since he was 12weeks old and is now 3 1/2 and can now swim more than 5meters on his own now. He loves the water and has no fear at telling mummy and daddy to stand far away so he can jump in and swim to us, can't wait to be able to send our second one once its been made lol xx

My little girl loved chapter 1 we had a great time in the pool and we had an amazing instructor Dominique, highly recommend x

My daughter started Waterbabies when she was 9 weeks old, she just turned two yesterday and loves the water and is not scared of it. I can't believe what she can do. Thank you Waterbabies you are brilliant. My second daughter started when she was 11 weeks and is now 10 months and is doing just as well as her sister xx

If there's only one thing your able to do to for your kids, it should be this! Water babies is amazing my only regret is not knowing about it when I had my first child. My son is four months and the progress he has made in just 4 weeks is unreal. Plus the teachers are fab! x

I love, love, love our swimming classes! Ada is 6 months now and so happy and confident in the water - seeing her little face underwater is priceless. Highly recommend to anyone (and I do!).

I love bringing my son Swimming. Dominique is a fantastic teacher, she is great with the kids, very knowledgable and she always remains calm which is great when is parents flap over our babies. My son loves swimming and he is very fond his teacher, entering and leaving with mig smiles, apart from when he has to give the toys back.

I have loved these classes with my 1 year old son. It has been the highlight of our week and he adores the water. With my return to work looming I'm sad to say goodbye to all Oliver's fellow water babies and our rather super teacher Lisa. Highly recommend x

I can't believe we are about to start our final term. Emily started at about 8 mths old and has been lucky enough to be in exactly the same class she started in with Esme. Fortunately Owen (6mths) has just started his first lessons, so Esme has me for a little longer. We love it!

Hogan and I have been going to Water Babies since he was 12 weeks old and he loves it! It's the one class we look forward to every week, he loves the 'splishy splashy' time in the pool and I love that he's growing to become an incredibly confident Water Baby - oh and plus he nearly always has a lovely long sleep after :)

Both our children have being doing water babies since they were 5 months old. Natalie is the most amazing teacher. She has wonderful patience and loves the children. She makes the lessons fun and our children are so confident in the water now. Amelia is 2 now and Zachary 4 and both love swimming and absolutely love Natalie. The progression in the lessons is amazing and so clever. I would recommend the lessons to anyone. Thank you Natalie x

Absolutely love, love Water Babies! � Can't thank our teacher, Lisa, enough. Today's lesson was brilliant and I'm so pleased with how much my daughter (and the other babies in her class) have learned. It is incredible! So much fun and looking forward to Chapter 6! �����

Absolutely amazing. I do water babies with both my boys, one started as a baby and the other at 20 months. Although my eldest was slightly behind others, due to not having completed baby lessons, after 2 weeks he was able to hold onto the side of the pool and get out of the pool by himself. I've also noticed a growing confidence especially in the bath. All i hear all week is "swim", "splash". Definitely recommend it to anyone, and it's never too late to join.
