Turtle Tots Cornwall
Hello! Welcome to Turtle Tots Cornwall!
We run fun, progressive, child led, baby and toddler swimming classes around Cornwall. Here at Turtle Tots, we believe that swimming is vital and a potentially life saving skill which offers a huge range of physical and emotional benefits to young children. It is also incredibly important to us that we offer families the chance to have their babies learn to be safe and confident around water when living near the Cornish coasts. Turtle Tots sessions are the perfect place for grown ups to meet new friends so it’s not just for babies but for Mums and Dads too!
All our instructors are highly trained and experienced so your little one will have best possible start to their swimming journey.
We would love to welcome you to our swim classes so feel free to have a look around and let is know if you have any questions.
Turtle Tots is a unique and innovative swimming programme that begins with aqua-natal yoga for mums-to-be and continues with our specialised and progressive baby and toddler lessons, taught by our team of highly trained teachers, who have completed comprehensive Turtle Tots aquatic training, in addition to training with the Swimming Teachers’ Association.
Our classes have a strong focus on teaching lifesaving skills from a young age, we help babies and toddlers learn the skills they need to help keep them safe in and around water, until they are able to swim independently.
At Turtle Tots Cornwall, we teach you to teach your baby or toddler to swim, at a pace that is right for them, in a gentle progressive way. Our lessons host a non-competitive environment that fosters strong bonding, trust, respect and communication leading to a lifelong love of the water.
We run classes around Cornwall so we will have a lovely pool to suit you. Our baby and toddler classes are £12.50 a session and terms vary in length from 7 to 10 weeks.
