Calling all dads ŌĆō if you work all week and miss out on that time with your little one, why not bring them to their swimming lesson this week? We are seeing more and more dads in the pool, especially at our weekend classes and would love to see you along

Giving something back to the community is one of the things we feel passionately about and every Turtle Tots office donates at least 1% of their revenue to good causes locally. Since the very first Turtle Tots classes in 2011, Turtle Tots have raised an estimated ┬Ż300 000 for good causes and in South West Wales, we have also done our part. Have a read about the two great charities that your term fees go to support Ty Hafan and Cardiac Risk in the Young https://www.turtletots.com/southandwestŌĆ ”/local-news-articleŌĆ”

When people enquire about our baby and toddler swimming classes, a question we very often get asked is if a parent or carer needs to be able to swim when they come to Turtle Tots lessons. The answer we always give is a resounding NO! On the flip side, not being able to swim, not being water confident and even having a fear of the water are very often reasons we are given for why people want to start their child swimming early. Not wanting to pass this fear onto their child can be a main driver to signing up so we wanted to take a look at our lessons from the point of view of a nervous parent. Have a read of our latest blog where we look at our classes from the perspective of a nervous parent. https://www.turtletots.com/southandwestŌĆ ”/local-news-articleŌĆ”

If you are interested in giving your little one an introduction to swimming and water safety, we offer fun, friendly, child-led lessons for children from 3 months to 4 years. You can join our classes at any time so you can join when you feel ready. Our lessons give you a chance to spend some lovely one-on-one time with your child away from the never-ending laundry pile and dirty dishes(!) as well as giving them a very important life skill. Along with offering catch up classes if you miss a class, we also donate a percentage each month to charity. If you would like to find out more, please get in touch at nofio@turtletots.com. Bring on the Smiles!

We are all set up at the NCT nearly new sale at the LC2. Come along and grab some bargains and have a chat to us about baby swimming ­¤Éó­¤Æ”­¤śŖ

Bring on the Dads! We see more and more dads getting in the pool with their little person and we LOVE it! Dads bring a different energy with them and are usually the ones throwing their baby the highest or zooming their toddler the fastest. Swimming is most definitely not just for mums! If you would like to know more about our classes, get in touch

Come on.... hands up, who is guilty?!

We are looking forward to the NCT Nearly New Sale this weekend! Come along and grab some bargains. We can't wait to talk to you all about Baby and Toddler swimming lessons! ­¤Éó­¤Æ¦

Whether you are a full-time mum, a first-time mum, a step mum, a winging-it mum, or a got-yourself-together mum, we all know that life with little people doesnŌĆÖt always go to plan and can be as challenging as it is wonderful.

We love this half an hour a week! WeŌĆÖve made some lovely friendships in the changing rooms and we just LOVE Rhiannon and her staff!!

Turtle tots is amazing for both myself and my baby, he has developed beautifully and is much more confident in the water. It's the highlight of my week and can't recommend it enough!!

Romano and I attended the taster session this morning and would highly recommend. Our instructor was amazing with the little ones and the activities were so much fun that all the mums and dads were singing in the pool. We can't wait to start the new term in January. Thank you all so much for a very enjoyable session.

My daughter was scared of the swimming pool after trying her in another swim school last year, after 2 minutes In the pool with Rhiannon she loved it! She's a brilliant teacher and Celyn really likes her Ōś║’ĖÅ

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Rhiannon, Ellis absolutely loves the pool now and it's great for my husband and I to have the confidence to take him swimming. Hopefully see you for level 2 soon!

I really wanted my little boy (now aged 1 year) to do swimming lessons as my five year didn't and grew up afraid of the water. I'm glad we chose Turtle Tots and Rhiannon as the teacher was a perfect fit for us! Her calmness and confidence gave myself (a secretly worried mummy) more confidence to try manoeuvres out in the water with my baby. I never thought that after just a couple of sessions in the water that my baby would be going underwater!

It's also about having fun with your baby in the water,spending quality relaxed time together. We've really enjoyed these lessons, Rhiannon is always smiley chatty and has an obvious love of the water. Her professionalism, knowledge, confidence and manner make these lessons a fantastic opportunity for your little ones! Thanks again for having James and hopefully we'll be able to sign up again soon.

I cannot recommend this enough, Rhiannon is amazing at making me feel at ease with Toby in the water and building his confidence. Toby is definitely a little turtle tot ’┐Į xxx

Great classes and Rhiannon is so lovely with the babies. No pressure to do anything you are not comfortable with either. Looking forward to level 2 now!

Everyone was a bit sceptical of my daughter starting so young (2months old) but although she was wary the first few lessons, she is more confident and loves the water! Even in the bath she does kick kick kick when I say! Starting level 2 again in 2 weeks time, Rhian and I can't wait :)

Both myself and Ioan are really enjoying our Turtle Tots swim sessions. His confidence in the water is amazing we have had allot of fun in level 1, and look forward to level 2 starting in a few weeks X

Best thing I have every taken jaxs to Rhiannon is a fantastic teacher and I can't wait for my boy to level up :) x

Ashtons 2 nearly 3 and has had three lessons with rhiannon in Pentrehafod and he loves it and has learnt so much already!! I've been wanting him to do swimming lesson for a while but been put off but since starting him it's the best thing I've done I should have started him earlier! Amazing lessons!

Amazing classes and Rhiannon is an awesome instructor and is brilliant with the kids. Both of my boys go to classes (different levels) and I couldn't recommend or praise turtle tots enough ’┐Į’┐Į
