Only 3 Baby Swim Spaces Remaining 🧜‍♀️🐬

There is something so special about watching your baby in the water for the first time. The trust. The little smiles. The tiny splashes that turn into big confidence 💙

Our Saturday Baby Swim class at Castledyke Swimming Pool (12:00-12:30pm) now has just 3 spaces left, and we would love to welcome a few more little ones into our swim family.

Baby swimming isn’t just about learning a skill - it’s about:

💦 Building water confidence from the very beginning
💙 Strengthening that precious parent & baby bond
🧠 Supporting early development and coordination
🌊 Builds on physical development including stronger muscles and improved balance and coordination.
😊 Helping your little one feel calm and secure in new environments
🤗Creating a supportive space where parents can connect and share their journey together.

These early experiences really do stay with them.

Our sessions are small, supportive and always baby-led with no pressure, just patience, reassurance and lots of encouragement.

If you’ve been thinking about starting, this might be your moment ✨

Send us a message for more details or to secure one of the last spaces.

We can’t wait to share those special little milestones with you 💙

🌊✨ A Little Bit of Exciting News… ✨🌊

We’ve been getting so many messages about baby spaces lately (which we’re so grateful for🥹), so we’ve decided to open up a brand new Baby Water Session - and there are just 5 spaces available.

🗓 Starting Saturday 28th February
⏰ 12:00 - 12:30pm
📍 Castledyke Swimming Pool - PE22 7BW
📅 5-week term
👶 3 months - 2½ years
💷 Just £55 per baby for the full 5-week term

Our baby sessions are such a special part of what we do. They’re gentle, calm and full of little magical moments - from first splashes to big smiles 💙

We focus on:
💦 Building water confidence at your baby’s pace
🤗 Precious one-to-one bonding time
💙 Helping you both feel relaxed and happy in the water
🌊 Small class sizes for individual support

All sessions are led by a fully qualified, experienced and trusted swim instructor, with years of hands-on experience teaching babies and young children. Water safety is always at the heart of everything we do, and we pride ourselves on creating a warm, supportive environment where both parents and little ones feel completely at ease.

This session has been added purely because so many of you have been asking - and we always try our best to accommodate where we can.

With only 6 little ones in the class, it’ll be cosy, supportive and personal… but that does mean spaces will go quickly.

If you’ve been thinking about joining us, this could be your sign 🐬

Pop us a message to secure a space or ask any questions - we’d absolutely love to welcome you and your little one into our swim family 💙✨

Just a little message to say we’re currently working away behind the scenes at Mermaids & Dolphins Swim School 🧜‍♀️🐬

Some of you may not know me yet - I’m Tamara, and I’ve recently come on board to support Jamie (our swim teacher) and Claire, who also helps with admin. I’ll be helping with socials and some of the behind-the-scenes organisation to keep everything running as smoothly as possible.

As part of that, we’re giving our page, emails and general communications a bit of a refresh to make things clearer, more professional and easier for all of our swim families.

While we’re updating everything, replies might be slightly slower than usual. We’re absolutely still here and doing our best - it just may take a little longer to get back to you during this transition, so thank you so much for your patience.

We’re really excited about what’s ahead and can’t wait to share the improvements with you.

As always, thank you for your continued support - it means a lot to us.💙
