Zoe
Hi I’m Zoe, mum of three and owner of Turtle Tots Marlborough and Swindon. I absolutely love being in the water so if I am not teaching your children, I can often be found swimming or playing water games with my own! As well as being a franchisee and teacher I am also a Turtle Tots customer. My children love their swimming lessons and its my mission to bring the same love of water to as many others as possible.

Carolyn
Hi, I am Carolyn and I have been teaching children to swim for 18 years now. I love my job, especially seeing the expression on a child’s face when they achieve something for the first time. You can find me at Blue Lagoon on a Friday morning. Look forward to meeting you there!

Emily
Hi I’m Emily, I’m a Mum of 2 and a Turtle Tot’s customer. I enjoyed bringing my children to lessons so much I decided to retrain as a swimming teacher! I have always loved the water and have enjoyed sharing this love with my children and I’m looking forward to sharing this love with you and your little ones. Find me in pool at Woodlands on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and at Three Jays on Thursdays.

Hi, I’m Catherine, and have always loved being in, on or near water. When my daughter came along, I joined Turtle Tots to share that passion with her. I was amazed by the progress she made and the confidence it gave us both. The benefits reached far beyond the pool, and I was inspired to train as a teacher. I now love helping other families experience the joy of the water together. You’ll find me at the Blue Lagoon on Tuesdays.

Both my grandchildren have thoroughly enjoyed learning to swim with Zoe. Being able to start lessons so young is a real advantage to helping build water confidence. The Blue Lagoon is a lovely little pool. Zoe is warm and welcoming entertaining us with lots of different toys, games and songs. I would definitely recommend them.

Turtles tots is excellent. Such a fun way for babies and toddlers to gain confidence in the water. The lessons gradually build skills and techniques. Zoe from Marlborough/Swindon is a superb instructor! Swimming lessons are a highlight in our week!

Zoe is kind, patient and very professional when teaching my grandson to swim.
He is not always the most cooperative in the lesson however she handles this well.
It is a pleasure to come along each week.
Thank you ZoeDebra -
My daughter started swimming classes at six months old, and now, at nearly three, she still loves them! Zoe and Emily are wonderful, and she has gained so much confidence in the water. She enjoys the fun activities and all the songs. I highly recommend these classes!

We’ve been taking our daughter to swimming lessons with Zoe since she was 3 months old. Zoe is a fantastic teacher and her lessons are always really fun an engaging. Lots of skills to practise if you go swimming outside of lessons too.
