"I 100% recommended London Baby Swim at Wandsworth, I started classes with my daughter at 8 weeks, Judit is an amazing instructor who makes it a safe, enjoyable and comfortable space for babies as well as adults! Now my daughter is 8 months and loves being in the water, she is confident with going underwater and thoroughly enjoys the class."

"If you want your baby to get used to water, start them before 6 months and it's much easier for them. My daughter started when she was 8 weeks old and she absolutely loves it!"

"I can not recommend London Baby Swim enough. I have been attending with my daughter since she was 8 weeks old and started my son at the same age. While all the teachers are great Emma is phenomenal. I have never met a more warm and loving teacher."
