    • Such a fun class! Even though we’re in a group and do group activities, we get individual attention as well! My son has come on so well and loves the class Would definitely recommend!

    • My grandchildren absolutely love coming to Turtle Tots.
      Their teacher Charlotte’s an absolute gem and the lessons wouldn’t be the same without her!

    • Turtle tots has given my little boy the best time learning how to swim. Lots of songs to encourage smiles. Super understanding of new worried mums, cattering to children’s different needs. My boy always leaves happy and tired

    • My daughter loves her classes. It is fun and exciting, Natalie is brilliant. The children’s confidence grows each week.

    • Been coming for half a term to baby level 1 at Cecil Road and already booked next terms too, we love it !

    • A fun way to learn to swim safely. Both my boys have loved their turtle tots journey & I can’t recommend these classes enough!

    • Both my children have swam or currently swim with Turtle tots. My first child learnt so much from Turtle tots and my second child loves attending each week

    • Both my son’s have attended Turtle Tots since they were six weeks old. I’ve absolutely loved the bonding time with them both and it’s been my favourite part of my week especially during difficult periods of baby and toddlerdom as it’s always a fun happy lesson! My oldest graduated from the toddler lessons recently and he is so confident in the water because of Turtle Tots which has set him up amazingly for swimming lessons without a parent in the water. From early on they learn some basic safety principles which left me confident that if they fell into the water they would be less likely to panic, know how to hold on and try and move towards steps. The teaching staff are all amazing and reassuring to parents whatever stage their child is at in developing their skills and the kids love them. I recommend turtle tots to everyone and I’m going to be devastated when it’s time for my youngest to graduate. Hands down one of the best parts of parenting my babies and toddlers.

    • Turtle Tots is fantastic! The teachers are so personable and the quality of the lessons are great. My daughter is always coming away with a smile and her confidence during lessons has really improved since her first. I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else for her swimming lessons.
