Maybe Water Nippers has been recommended to you by a friend? Or maybe you stumbled across our website as you researched children’s swimming lessons? Either way let us enlighten you to the Water Nippers ethos…we believe that children learn best in a safe, relaxed and stimulating environment. Our main aim is to build your child’s confidence in the water whilst reminding them of the importance of aquatic safety at all times. Our classes are small and held in warm pools, which is particularly appealing to babies and toddlers (not to mention parents!). All swimming instructors are STA and/or ASA qualified and will also hold a rescue test certificate. In addition, each teacher will have received training with Water Nippers and will be skilled at handling your child under and above the water. As a general rule of thumb, one parent (Mum, Dad, or other responsible adult known to your child) will accompany one child in the water until that child is around three years old.
