Baby swimming lessons in Harrogate, North Yorkshire

Baby Squids Harrogate

Our Harrogate baby swimming lessons are run in a wonderful pool at Ashville Sports Centre, Harrogate. It has plenty of car parking and is located on the edge of Harrogate, making it easy to access via the A61 from Ripon, the A59 from Skipton or the A61 from Leeds.

Modern facilities heated to 31C

Our Harrogate swimming lessons are held in a pool heated at 30-31C, so we  recommend younger babies wear wetsuits. This is a newly refurbished sports centre, with large changing rooms with baby stations in both the men’s and women’s changing rooms. While the school do not allow poolside access for spectators, there is a café on site, so you can grab a coffee and treat!

What everyone is saying

start quotes
Alex is brilliant! Right from our very first session, he created such a friendly and calm atmosphere for us. My daughter was quite nervous about the pool initially, but Alex’s patience and playful approach have really helped her. The sessions are perfectly paced, and it’s a wonderful way for us to connect and bond every week. Seeing her splash around happily now is just the best. I’d definitely recommend Baby Squids to any parents looking for baby swimming lessons in Harrogate. Emma Robinson – Harrogate, Yorkshire

Such a lovely and encouraging environment. We always look forward to our swimming lessons with Alex; he runs such engaging and fun swimming classes. My daughter loves the consistent use of songs and games, which as well as keeps her focused while she builds her strength and independence in the water. Everything is so well-organized, and the facilities are excellent. I’m really pleased we found Baby Squids North Yorkshire, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alex to my friends.

We’ve had a great experience with Baby Squids North Yorkshire! Alex is a superb teacher, he brings so much energy to the pool, which makes the lessons fly by for both the babies and the parents. I really appreciate the smaller groups because it means our teacher gives us specific, individual tips to help with our son’s progress. My little boy is thriving, and I’ve gained so much confidence in how to handle him safely in the water. Such a fantastic class for anyone in Leeds! David Thompson – Leeds, Yorkshire
