Water Babies Omdömen 

Having just had a conversation with a very close relative, I thought that this cannot go unanswered.
A man tries to take his daughter swimming, the lessons had been prepaid, only to find there were no appropriate changing facilities to change his daughter who is 18 months old. Having informed the venue at the time the reply was oh well. You can change her in the gentleman’s changing rooms or in the toilet. At no point should this have been an option. It is degrading for the child to have to go through a situation like this.
Who in their right mind would change their daughter, no matter what age in front of them of unknown strange men. This again should never be an option,
When taking this up with a female manager, today, the attitude of this female manager leaves a lot to be desired. Even going so far as to say that there are not that many men taking their daughters swimming any, so they don’t need to allow for this situation.
The whole attitude of this situation stinks
Head office has been sent an email, the reply beggers belief, they couldn’t care less that this has happened. Needless to say they will never be recommended to anyone who I come in contact with.
If it were possible to leave a minus star I would have
Avoid like the plague
This happened at the Llanelli venue

Went to take my little girl to swimming lessons in the everlast gym in Llanelli. I don’t like to get her changed in the men’s changing room for obvious reason and I usually use the single baby changing facility they have available to men to get her ready. Baby change was out of order. So my options were to change her in the men’s locker room where there’s no cover or to change her on the floor of the toilet. Absolutely disgraceful. £175 a term for swimming lessons and almost no accommodation for dads with little girls. My little girl was very upset. How can something like this be allowed. If you’re going to host swimming lessons for baby’s and toddlers then you need to have the correct facilities in place.

We called water babies to inform them of the situation and to let them know that the manager of the gym said it had been broken for a few weeks and that he didn’t know when it was going to be fixed. He also said that “it’s not usually an issue because the mums usually take the kids to swimming lessons” which is a crazy thing to say. Obviously this venue was no longer an option for us. We were unfortunately met with a complete lack of understanding from the lady we spoke to at waterbabies. She suggested that it was fine for me to change my little girl in the men’s changing room with no cover because she’s only a little girl and not an adult…. dumbfounded by this. You’d think that a company that deals with toddlers and babies would be more sensitive to these kinds of issues and situations but no. Anything to not give a refund so that we can afford to take her to a more suitable location for her lessons. What a shame.

My son absolutely loves going to Water Babies, and the staff are brilliant. He’s really enjoying learning to swim in such a safe and welcoming environment. It’s also lovely to meet other parents while he gets to socialise with other children. We’re really enjoying the experience!

We’ve had a really positive experience overall and are very grateful for the time, care and confidence Waterbabies have given both our girls in the water.

They have both been swimming with Waterbabies from just a few months old, and we’re so happy that we chose Waterbabies to introduce them to swimming and help them develop such important water safety skills.

Me and my daughter both love it Claire is amazing, weve been going since my daughter was 4 months old (shes now 2 months off 3 years old), unfortunately we are having to leave waterbabies as my daughter is going to nursery and the alternative class times dont work for us, would 100% recommend as soon as you are able (after baby is born)

Quinns love going to swimming lessons, she always excited when she see the pool. She’s getting along well with every teacher she have.
I can see the difference in her from day one and I am amazed by how well she does.

Amazing progress made. Teacher is so good with the children get to know them all. My little boy adores her and always talk about her. When he’s had the water wobbles she’s given advice and told us what to do whilst reassuring us.

Natalie and B are fantastic, enthusiastic and reassuring when it comes to ensuring parents-grandparents are comfortable with what is required. My 10month nearly 11months has been attending now for 4 months and she's growing in confidence and loves attending water babies- Doncaster.

Very good experience, professional staff,a bit pricey

My daughter is an incredible swimmer and my second is coming on really well. It’s not the cheapest but I’m really happy with the classes and feel like if you’re going to spend it anywhere this is a good reason!

Absolutely love how kind and friendly Jackie is. My daughter has been swimming with Water Babies for just over 18 months, and has progressed well. She enjoys the sessions. She is 2 years old and already has learnt some important safety skills in the water which is brilliant. Highly recommend swimming lessons

My daughter has been with Water babies since she was 6 months! She is now 3 and is thriving with her swimming abilities. My 6 month old son had his first lesson last week and his experience was positive too. Highly recommend. Fun, engaging lessons led by professional, knowledgeable teachers who put both babies and parents at ease ❤️

Very easy to get set up with the swimming classes and the quality of teaching has been great.

My son loves his swimming lessons and his teacher Leanne ;)

Fantastic company have helped my 1 year old massively increase her confidence in water, it’s now one of her favourite activities in the week! Have completed most of our classes with Lizzie so far who was amazing and very recently moved to a new class which is abit bigger but still fun to attend :)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We absolutely love the swimming lessons for our 2-year-old son! He has gained so much confidence in the water and really enjoys every session. The instructor is brilliant—so friendly, patient, and great with the little ones. It’s lovely to see his progress each week, and he always looks forward to his swimming lesson. We would highly recommend these lessons to anyone with young children! 🏊‍♂️💙😊

My daughter started from 5 weeks old and we’ve never looked back! Shes always been super confident in the water and it’s all down to the amazing staff and the patience and charisma that they bring to each lesson. My youngest isn’t the biggest fan of water but she’s come so far with these classes. 1000000% recommend Water Babies, the best one by far ☺️

Harper absolutely loves swimming at Sandpearl, she always has such a good experience. Leanne is such a good teacher ,Harper's progress has been outstanding . Would highly recommend water babies .

We've been with water babies for two years,starting the sessions at. Around 5 months old. The progression has been great, we've had a few slips whilst bouncing around in the bath but straight away the water safety skills from the sessions get used.

We have Lizzie, who honestly is the nicest person, and she even went out of her way to learn some BSL/Makaton to incorporate into the sessions. She remembers all the children's names and is so warm and friendly, the children really love the lessons. I can't recommend water babies enough; not only are they taught to swim, but they build the confidence that children need to enjoy water safely!!
