Our toddler taster sessions are a great way for you to explore everything First Swim has to offer—without the commitment of a full term. You and your little one will be supported every step of the way by our friendly staff and experienced instructors, so you can feel confident and at ease in and out of the water.
Before or after your session, take a moment to relax with your toddler in our private café—where you can enjoy a tasty barista coffee, a babyccino or a snack.
We’ll provide a free disposable swim nappy and a rental neoprene nappy – both are requirements for swimming in our pool. We have a limit of 6 toddlers/ parents to 1 teacher in the pool at any one time. Our private pool is purpose-built and kept at 33oC so both you and your toddler will be toasty warm!
The changing rooms have individual cubicles with change units in each one. There are also cots and highchairs in the open changing area for those handsfree moments as needed.
The minimum age is 2 and the maximum age is 3 ½ years old.
Our terms run consecutively for 10 week blocks. You can speak to a member of staff after the trial lesson about class release dates. Alternatively, follow us on Instagram and sign up to our newsletter to get the latest news about new term bookings.

We teach toddlers who are 2 and 3 years old. If your toddler is currently 3 years old and is due to turn 4 before or during the middle of the next swim term then you will not be able to enrol them for that term.
Not at all. The water depth in our pool is only 1.2m (just under 4ft) so all you need to do is stand with your child during the sessions. We have worked with many parents who cannot swim. Just let us know at the front desk and our instructors will help guide you. Â
Yes. All toddlers must wear the Splash About Jammer Shorts for both health & safety reasons and to help with their swim technique. These have elasticated waist and thighs preventing air pockets during the swim.
Toddlers who are not yet toilet trained must wear disposable or re-usable swim pants underneath the Jammer Shorts. These are available on our website shop.

We also recommend that all toddlers wear a swim cap and swim goggles. We sell special toddler swim goggles in our shop.

Loving First Swim classes with my little one and we look forward each week. Teachers are so friendly and amazing in teaching different holds and positions to get baby comfortable with water.
Loving First Swim classes with my little one and we look forward each week. Teachers are so friendly and amazing in teaching different holds and positions to get baby comfortable with water. We love singing all the songs as we repeat them quite often at home so baby knows whats to come when we mention ‘ let’s go swimming’. The changing facilities and the coffee area are spacious and very well thought about for babies and their families.
Joining up First Swim was the best choice we could have make for our little one! Liam absolutely loves it! He adores his teacher Chloe! We didn’t got a chance to meet all of the staff…
