Puddle Ducks Baby & Pre-school 
Our Baby & Pre-school programme is a wonderful bonding experience. Progressive lesson plans instil a water confidence and a love of swimming whilst our nurturing teachers tailor activities to your child's abilities and needs.

Taught in lovely pools with a maximum of 10 children, our classes incorporate rhyme, music and movement based on extensive child development research. Our lessons are so well received that the children we teach can often swim over 10 metres before they start school.

Sessions are structured to focus on a different developmental theme each week, which incorporates music, song and sensory props. This is especially relevant as we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage and Special Educational Needs guidelines. Furthermore sessions are split age appropriately. Due to focus firmly on our children it ensures they reap the benefits from our wonderful therapies. Junior sessions empower and inspire confidence in our children. Yoga for children is becoming more popular as much as an everyday hobby. A way to help children become more comfortable and confident in their own bodies. As a result of a child who learns yoga, relaxation and mindfulness they develop essential skills for a lifetime of health of well-being. Sessions are delivered privately, in nurseries and schools. We have just received our Gold accreditation from the children's activities association so bringing peace of mind to parents knowing we are fully trained, insured and competent in everything we teach.
