Between us, we bring over 20 years of swimming teaching experience, specialist knowledge of child development and SEND support, and a genuine love for helping every swimmer reach their potential.<\/p>\n<p>When you book with us, you can be confident that your little one is in safe, experienced hands, whether they&#8217;re learning with Amanda or Gemma. We are committed to creating fun, supportive and nurturing swimming lessons where every child can thrive.<\/p>\n<p>Amanda<\/p>\n<p>Amanda is the owner of Turtle Tots Mid Cheshire &amp; Chester and a qualified baby, toddler and preschool swimming teacher. After discovering Turtle Tots as a parent with her own 9-week-old baby, she fell in love with the programme&#8217;s focus on water safety, confidence building and creating magical bonding experiences in the pool.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Amanda enjoys helping families across Mid Cheshire, Northwich and Chester make lasting memories while developing essential swimming and water safety skills. Her favourite part of the job is watching little swimmers grow from tentative first splashes into confident, independent swimmers.<\/p>\n<p>Gemma<\/p>\n<p>Gemma has been teaching swimming for 19 years and comes from a family of swimmers and swim teachers. She has extensive experience working with children of all ages and abilities, including over 10 years supporting children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).<\/p>\n<p>As a mum herself, Gemma is passionate about creating a fun, welcoming environment where children can learn through play, build confidence and celebrate every achievement, from their first float to mastering new swimming skills.<\/p>\n<p>Together, we&#8217;re dedicated to providing safe, fun and engaging baby swimming lessons, toddler swim classes, preschool swimming lessons and children&#8217;s swimming lessons across Mid Cheshire and Chester. We can&#8217;t wait to welcome your family to the pool. \ud83d\udc22\ud83d\udc99<figure id=\"attachment_14592\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14592\" style=\"width: 240px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.turtletots.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Amanda-Gemma-240x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-14592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.turtletots.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Amanda-Gemma-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/www.turtletots.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Amanda-Gemma-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/www.turtletots.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Amanda-Gemma-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.turtletots.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Amanda-Gemma-600x750.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.turtletots.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Amanda-Gemma-100x125.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/www.turtletots.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/08\/Amanda-Gemma.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14592\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Meet Amanda &amp;
