WHAT WE DO
What is child-led swimming and how does Turtle Tots differ?
When it comes to making the right choices for your child, trust will play an important part in your decision making. We believe that we are different to other swim schools and pride ourselves in creating special experiences for little ones and their parents that build confidence, encourage bonding and make memories that will last a lifetime.
We’re passionate about teaching water safety and lifesaving skills at a pace that is right for child. Our lessons are child-centred, and every teacher is trained to understand how babies communicate in the pre-verbal period and how best to support their learning in this critical early part of life. They are also skilled at seeing when toddlers and older children are ready to progress, and how they learn best.
Of course, underwater swimming is included in our programme, but it’s not the focus of Turtle Tots lessons and most of what happens in our lessons takes place above the water. Lessons include lots of songs and games to ensure your little one loves the time you spend together in the pool, and they develop a life-long love of the water.
We pride ourselves on our service, both in and out of the water. Most of our teachers and franchisees are parents themselves and we offer catch up classes where possible. We are also dedicated to working with other small businesses and organisations in our communities and each office supports a local charity. You can find out more here.
Bring on the smiles – at Turtle Tots, learning to swim is fun!
