Timetable- Willow Lodge, Bubwith

Meet the teachers at Willow Lodge

• Emily Hembry

  Swim Academy teacher

  I joined Puddle Ducks as a Teacher in September 2018, after bringing both of my sons to their classes for the last three years - since they were 12 weeks old. They absolutely loved their classes and so did I! 

  I teach Swim Academy classes at Willow Lodge, Bubwith and Oak House, Tickhill. 

  Prior to joining Puddle Ducks, I was a driving instructor, however swimming has always been a big part of my life and I have taught children to swim for most of my adult life. 

  Apart from loving being in the water and swimming in general, the best bit is seeing the enjoyment children get out of swimming, as well as learning a valuable life skill. There is no better job satisfaction than seeing a child who may be nervous in the water, progress to swimming independently.

  I am a mum of two boys aged 1 and 3, so pretty much all of my time is spent with them. I love to go to new places and do lots of activities with them. I've always loved to swim, including swimming competitively in open water, so working for Puddle Ducks is my perfect job! 

• Lauren Rice

  Baby & Preschool/Swim Academy teacher

  I joined Puddle Ducks in 2015 and I teach Baby & Pre-school and Swim Academy classes. 

  Before becoming a swimming teacher, I took my eldest child to swimming lessons and loved it. I decided to train up and haven't looked back since! My favourite part of the job is meeting all the lovely children and building and creating a trusted relationship with them. There is nothing more special than having a child join you as a Floatie and seeing them progress to achieving their 5m in Dippers! It's definitely the best job in the world. 

  I have two children and one puppy. If i'm not in the pool we are outdoors with our wellies on jumping in puddles! (So always wet somehow!)
