Puddle Ducks at the World Aquatics Baby and Children's Conference

We are very excited to have had Puddle Ducks represented at the recent World Aquatic Babies and Children’s Conference (WABC) in Brighton. Ali Beckman is a teacher for Mid Cheshire but is also works at Head Office for the Baby Swimming Franchising company. Ali met with leading swimming teachers from around the globe to share new ideas and we look forward to seeing some of these appear in our baby and toddler swimming programmes in 2010.

Splashathon 2009 results

Congratulations to all the Puddle Ducks who took part in the 2009 Splashathon held in June. We managed to raise a fantastic £7,900 for Tommys across our franchise network.
We'd like to thank all those who donated. We exceeded the target of £5000 and next year we will be setting a higher target!
Jane Brewin Chief Exec of Tommy's says "Every penny you have raised will go into our vital, life saving research into pregnancy complications and premature birth. Your help is taking us one step closer to our goal to give every baby the best start in life."
We will shortly be announcing our top fundraisers.
Thanks again

Puddle Ducks help Bristol parents be BabySafe
Puddle Ducks Bristol owner, Sarah and teacher Jodie put their life-saving skills to good use on the 2nd November at a BabySafe seminar delivered by Tesco and The Royal Life Saving Society UK. The Bristol seminar, which was the first of a series of seminars running throughout the country, invited members of the Tesco Baby and Toddler Club to learn about three key areas of baby safety – basic life-saving techniques, meningitis and what to look for car-safety hints and tips.
After a series of presentations, attendees were invited to practice CPR and choking techniques on baby manikins. Sarah said, “The event was really informative and it was great to be able to help parents learn what to do if a baby is choking or stops breathing. By having this hands-on experience, the chances are these parents will remember what to do if they are ever in this situation. It was great to put our life saving skills to good use.”
