Our Instructors

All of our teachers understand young children and have a huge amount of experience supporting a variety of abilities. Each of them specialise in the baby, toddler and pre-schooler age groups. Our swimming teachers are the main reason so many of our Squids come back term after term.

Alex

Mum to Tia & Elliot, Alex has been teaching baby swimming since 2009. Before Alex was a primary school teacher and now combines her love of baby swimming with paediatric first aid training for parents.

Emily

Emily’s passion for baby & pre-school swimming began when taking her boys, Zac & Dexter, swimming. She qualified as a swimming teacher then, having previously obtained a degree in Education. Emily loves helping children enjoy the water whilst becoming confident swimmers.

Sarah

Mum of two, Sarah & her family all share a love of swimming. Sarah qualified as a swim teacher so she can encourage children to have fun and be confident in the water whilst learning an important life skill.

Viki's patience, encouragement, brilliantly planned & pitched swim lessons & outstanding teaching style have had a huge impact on the remarkable progress and water confidence Jasper has gained since joining your classes - and I can confidently say that being an Assistant Headteacher myself!

Charlie and I've both really enjoyed our classes. Alex is a great teacher, calm & confident with a big smile that puts everyone instantly at ease. The lessons are fun & relaxed with songs and games and lots to keep the little ones busy and active in the water. Highly recommended for kids swimming lessons in Winchester!
Lucy O'Neill - Winchester, Hampshire
Thomas and I have had a fantastic time with Alex at Winchester Hospital hydro pool. He started swimming lessons when he was 7 weeks and now at nearly 6 months he doesn't have any problems with going under the water, getting splashed or swimming on his front or back. Thank you Baby Squids.
Alex Cornell - Winchester, Hampshire
In my honest opinion, swimming lessons with Baby Squids have been the best thing I've done with my baby. We have been swimming since he was 8 weeks old and now he's 11 months and so full of confidence in the water.
Emily Walsh - Andover, Hampshire
Our teacher Nicky has been fantastic! Oskar has really loved this term & I've really noticed a difference in him really enjoying the swimming lessons as well as kicking away and mainly splashing haha! She's a great teacher and it's nice to see someone really enjoy their job too!
Katrina Harris - Andover, Hampshire

Highly recommended. My son Noah has been attending classes since he was 4 months and is now 17 months. Laura & her team have been fab & as a result Noah is very confident and happy to be in the water. Don't hesitate in trying them out if you are looking for swimming lessons for your baby!

Thank you for the brilliant swimming lesson with my 5 month old Oscar. We are 4 sessions in and love every second! He is getting so confident and loves splashing himself and me!
Clare Daunter - Winchester, Hampshire
Rufus is a confident, happy and able swimmer. At just 2, under Laura's guidance he has accomplished so much. He has progressed far more than we could have imagined by this age. Look no further for Winchester baby swimming lessons!
