Booking required: Yes. There is a waiting list system. You simply fill in a form and pay a £6 fee to be on the waiting list. You then get £5 off your classes.

Equipment required: The pool requires babies to wear swim nappies (available from reception for £1.50) and a swimming costume. You’ll also need a towel and costume for yourself. For young babies, you could also invest in a wetsuit so that they don’t get too cold, a happy nappy so that there aren’t any spills from the nappy and a dressing gown for baby to wear by the side of the pool. Pool toys are provided.
MoorMums says:
These are really good value lessons. Well worth getting yourself onto the waiting list. The 10 free entries for the parent are a real added bonus.
There is now a loyalty card that can be bought for all under 5′s, Aquatots card, that entitles the parents to discounts on any swimming activity i.e. public swimming, family swims etc.
Always check that the class is running before setting off. Share your views on the class with other mums in our baby chat section.
