About Our Parents & Tots Classes
These playful, parent-and-child sessions are designed to introduce toddlers to the water in a safe, enjoyable and pressure-free environment. Every lesson includes songs, gentle movement, and simple activities that support early water awareness.
With you in the pool beside your child, they feel secure and ready to explore at their own pace, and always guided by our experienced instructor.
Our focus is on relaxation, bonding, and building the early foundations that prepare children for future swimming lessons.
Meet Your Instructor - Chloe
Chloe is a warm and supportive swim teacher with a strong background as a former competitive swimmer. She creates a calm, reassuring environment where little ones feel safe and confident in the water.
Alongside her swim teaching, she is studying nursing with the goal of becoming a Paediatric Occupational Therapist. Her child-centred approach focuses on early motor skills, sensory comfort, and positive first experiences in the pool.
She’s excited to support you and your toddler as you begin your swimming journey together.
