Our Approach

At Baby Squids we understand how quickly your baby develops and that’s why our baby swimming classes are tailored to their developmental stage.  We encourage babies to attend from birth, however, we welcome all abilities and invite you to join at any time. We love to work with parents on improving your child’s water confidence, so if you are in any doubt give us a call and we can talk through everything we do.

Our main aim is to develop water confidence using toys, songs and lots of fun. Word association and recognition is a big part of what we do, encouraging children to kick, paddle, swim, jump, and hold on – all so important in the early years.

Our baby and toddler swimming classes have a maximum of 8 and our preschool classes a maximum of 6, this ensures that your child is in a fun group environment but there’s always an opportunity for one-on-one time with the teacher.

Milestones Programme

Our unique Baby Squids Milestone Programme is at the heart of everything we do. As your child grows, develops and reaches each Milestone, they will earn digital awards to proudly show friends and family. Every customer is issued with a digital booklet after registering with Baby Squids.

Not only does the Milestones Programme give your child a fun, highly visual record, but it is also designed to help you understand the stages and learning milestones of the Baby Squids journey.

Every stage has been created to ensure focus on a number of key development areas, from physical and sensory development to swimming milestones, that they will reach during these early years. No two children are the same so the programme is designed to offer flexibility in teaching; our teachers always tailor their classes to meet the needs of the children.
