Lucy - Founder, Owner
& Swimbabies instructor

"Hello there, I am Lucy, founder and owner of Swimbabies. I take care of the administration and photography, but most importantly the teaching. I have three small children who have all been through an underwater Swimbabies programme, but the number of children that have learned with me must now go into the thousands!

I hope you enjoy your time with Swimbabies..."

Swimbabies - The story so far

Swimbabies was born in January 2002. I wanted to create a haven for parents and carers where they could attend quality classes and motivational sessions. The classes were an immediate success. We started off with 15 Swimbabies and have ended up filling six days a week with lessons, so you could say it has gone swimmingly well!

We have fast gained a brilliant reputation in West Sussex through word of mouth and personal recommendations from our happy clients. Many parents return with their new babies and all this has resulted in a waiting list as the telephone enquiries come in fast and furious...
