What everyone is saying

start quotes
I have taken my son to Baby Squids East Hampshire since he was 2. He loves the lessons which have a lovely mix of learning and fun. They get to know your child’s likes and dislikes and build their confidence. I like their personal touch (including individual Christmas cards). I was with a well known swimming company from 6month -9 months and Baby Squids are much better value for money! Highly recommended. Daisy Deathers – Portsmouth, Hampshire

Fantastic baby/toddler swimming classes. We’ve been attending West Hill Park School for more than a year and have noticed such a wonderful difference in our child’s confidence in the water. Baby Squids East Hampshire swimming classes are welcoming, inclusive, fun and safe! Our daughter looks forward to swimming every week, and is always so happy in the water. Swimming has massively helped her developmentally too. We wouldn’t swim with anyone else! Jocelyn Price – Fareham, Hampshire

My daughter has been doing swimming lessons with Baby Squids for two terms now since she was 4 months old. We attend Rachel Madocks School on Monday afternoons and Freyja absolutely loves her lessons! They are usually based around swimming skills and the teachers are great at promoting these skills even with the very young babies. I’ve found Viki to be really understanding and helpful if we’ve needed to switch lessons one week for any reason. I’d absolutely recommend Baby Squids. Thank you!
