Turtle Tots North and South Devon is a renowned swimming instructor and club located in Exeter, offering inspiring and supportive baby, toddler, and preschool swimming lessons. Their mission is to develop water confidence, safety, and swimming skills in children from a young age through their unique and multi award-winning, child-led programme.
With Turtle Tots, swimming lessons become a magical journey between parent and child. The programme emphasises bonding and attachment, creating a nurturing environment where children can familiarise themselves with water and learn vital lifesaving skills through gentle and playful activities, songs, and games. Their progressive lessons are designed to ensure that both you and your little one enjoy your time in the pool and develop a lifelong love of the water.
Safety is a top priority at Turtle Tots. Their team of world-class swimming teachers are extensively trained to understand how babies communicate and when toddlers and older children are ready to progress. This enables them to provide the best support and guidance during your child's critical early years' experiences in the water.
Turtle Tots offers a comprehensive range of swimming lessons for different age groups. Their unique swimming programme begins before your baby is even born with Turtle Tums Aqua Natal Yoga, offering expectant parents a chance to prepare their mind and body for the arrival of their new baby. From there, the programme continues from age 0–4 years, with specific lessons tailored to each stage of your child's development.
Baby Swimming Lessons are aimed at babies aged 0–14 months, providing the perfect introduction to swimming and water. These lessons focus on bonding, attachment, and water familiarisation, while also teaching vital lifesaving skills.
Toddler Swimming Lessons are for children aged 14 months to 3 years. Building on the foundation developed in their first year, these lessons consolidate and expand on the skills learned, introducing new swim skills appropriate for your child's age and stage.
Swimming Lessons for 3 and 4 year olds further develop your child's skills, gradually mastering the skills introduced in their baby and toddler lessons. These lessons focus on recognisable swimming skills including back and front strokes, streamlining, rotation, diving for objects, treading water, and floating.
In addition to their baby, toddler, and preschool swimming lessons, Turtle Tots also offers Aquanatal Classes. These relaxing classes are designed for expectant mothers, providing the benefits of stretching, relaxation, and deep breathing using the natural buoyancy and resistance of the water.
Turtle Tots is proud to have swimming lessons available throughout the whole of the UK and Ireland. Their warm and welcoming swimming teachers are eager to welcome you and your child into their lovely warm pools. So, if you're ready to kick-start your child's swimming journey, join Turtle Tots North and South Devon today and watch your little one thrive in the water!
