Read more…Welcome to Puddle Ducks South Suffolk
Find out about baby swimming, toddler and pre-school swimming in and around Ipswich, Hadleigh, Felixstowe and Woodbridge.
Swimming has always been a big part of my life as a child and now my own children are spending as much time in the water as they can. I have a great belief in the benefits of teaching children to swim. If you can swim, it opens the door to sailing, surfing, jet skiing, the list goes on! Swimming is a life skill that can also save lives. The sooner your little one gains confidence in the water, the easier the journey will be.
You may have never tried swimming with your baby or be a dab hand in the pool; please get in touch, we're sure you'll love our gentle, fun and nurturing classes, all designed to maximise your bonding experience.
With activities perfectly tailored to suit your child's age and confidence, our lessons are full of songs, rhymes, games and activities working towards your little one swimming independently, safely and happily, both above and under the water. That’s the Puddle Ducks’ difference.
Please get in touch if you would like to find out more - we would love to welcome you and your little one to our classes soon.

Coffee after swimming?
If you are looking for that perfect place to go for a coffee after your swim, we can recommend The Flying Guardsman café in Hadleigh town. It’s a super café with outside space, heaters and even somewhere to put your buggy! For Puddle Ducks customers, they are providing a Buy One Get One Free on any hot drink for your first visit. Just show them your booking confirmation when you arrive. They do lovely cakes and good food too. It’s a lovely way to catch up with your swimming buddies and create life-long friends. You can park in the town (it’s free for 3 hours but you do need to get a ticket). Enjoy! Please see their website for opening times - https://www.tfgcafe.com/ #suffolkbusinesses #parerships #makingfriends #PuddleDucksDifference
