“Nothing beats seeing the amazement and joy of a child experiencing the feeling of floating and swimming for the first time”

“Children can achieve something in every lesson and as a teacher that’s extremely satisfying”

“Teaching swimming to all ages is a fantastic and rewarding experience. I love to see their faces light up when they realise they can swim – it makes it all so worthwhile”

“I love seeing a child progress and doing things that they initially didn’t think they were capable of. It’s really rewarding and I love being part of their experience.”

“Using my knowledge as a teacher to encourage children to try even when they find things really difficult & seeing them smile when they achieve something they thought was impossible for them.”

“As a teacher being a part of a child’s development and teaching a life skill that will last a life time and can save a life is amazing.”

“Understanding that each child is different and being able to help each child to realise their full potential is so rewarding.”

The Watersplash team have taken my water adverse (& I mean hating bath time, showers, swimming, the lot) child from fear to fun within a term. Face in water, jumping in the deep end, everything and now he is a competent swimmer all thanks to Stuart. So glad we swapped swim schools!

They have also given my water loving child beautiful technique and encouragement and she now swims for a local club.

But the thing I love most about Lauren and her team is their attitude, everything is fun, everything is possible, they support the stressed mum trying to get the kid in the water as much as the child itself, the admin side is easy. It has a community feel and the work she is doing to keep the Marlborough Pool open as a community asset is to be applauded and supported.

I have no hesitation in recommending the Watersplash team.

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say a very big thank you to you and the girls for all you have done with Abbie.
3 weeks in and she has gone from being scared of the water and crying her eyes out before every lesson to being excited and looking forward her lessons – it really is an amazing transformation!
I can see her confidence has improved drastically already which really was half the battle with her.

Both my children have had lessons with Watersplash, so I have known Lauren and her team over the past 7 years. I whole-heartedly recommend them as very capable teachers of swimming techniques in a warm and positive atmosphere. The kids are all having fun while they learn. Thumbs up!

I’d just like to say that Meredith has come on leaps and bounds with her swimming.
Watersplash is professionally run and has excellent trainers.
I was very grateful when you were able to change Meredith’s swimming day to accommodate her other out of school activities.

Lauren’s Water Splash swim school is extremely well organised and equipped. The enthusiastic and passionate teachers make it stand out. Both of our sons attend classes, it is a thrill to watch them enjoying learning how to swim. Our youngest son struggled to settle, but with Lauren’s experience and his brilliant teacher’s patience, he has grown in confidence enormously. I cannot rate this swim school highly enough, I have recommended it to several friends who are also delighted with it.

My daughters have loved learning to swim with Watersplash. Both started lessons when they were four years old, and right from the start the enthusiasm of Lauren, Julie and the team was infectious. My girls quickly became confident and happy in the water. Today, my ten year old is an excellent swimmer and a member of our local swimming club, whilst my seven year old is making brilliant progress and swimming lengths using a variety of strokes. Swimming is one of their favourite pastimes. I cannot recommend Watersplash highly enough.

My three children love their swimming lessons. They have great fun which has made them really confident in the water. I’ve been amazed at how quickly they have learnt to swim. Would recommend these lessons to everyone.

All four of our kids, (aged 11, 8, 5 & 3) have been through Lauren’s swimming school. By the age of 4 they have all been confident enough to swim in the sea off the coast of Cornwall on family holidays. Our eldest is now swimming galas for one of the top swim clubs in Hertfordshire and this was a child who would cry getting into a bath when she was little. The second is about to try out for the same club and we have no doubt the two younger ones will follow suit.

The ability of Lauren and her fellow coaches to make even the most nervous of children confident and just as, if not more importantly, happy in the water is astounding. We cannot recommend Watersplash Swim School enough.

We are over the moon with the Watersplash Swim School. Our son has some learning difficulties and he has come on brilliantly with Lauren and her team. He had other swimming lessons previously, but was always in a very large group and not given the time he needed to progress. Since he has been with Lauren, he no longer needs his arm bands and can now swim on his own! Everyone who has taught him has been caring, attentive and patient, with loud, clear instructions which is what he needs!

I have three boys who all go to Watersplash and I can only be eternally grateful to Lauren, Julie and the whole team who have taught my sons this essential life skill. They have paid very individual attention to each one of them to pinpoint areas that need improvement. To our delight, our eldest son recently swam 800 metres and this would not have been possible without Lauren’s excellent supervision and much needed motivation.

I would recommend anyone with young children that they need to look no further than Watersplash for a very professional, yet friendly, swim school who will look after your child’s every need when it comes to swim instruction.

Best swimming coaches of the year, Julie, Lauren and Matt. Thankyou for teaching me to swim, I have learnt so much and progressed. Now I am going to try out for the swimming club. Thank you once again.

My daughter, 7 and son, 5 have been at Watersplash for nearly 2 years. I had become frustrated with the lack of actual swimming my children were doing in the large group lessons at our local leisure centre.

We were recommended Watersplash and have never looked back. Group sizes are kept small and often have 2 teachers! They both came on incredibly.

They currently have private lessons with Stuart, as my daughter is hypermobile and struggles with co-ordination. We found tailor-made lessons for her work much better. Lauren has been so accommodating with this and I honestly can’t rave enough about what an incredible teacher Stuart is. He makes their lessons a perfect mix of learning and fun.

Watersplash is an absolutely fabulous swim school and I highly recommend Lauren & her team. My boys have progressed so much with their confidence & enjoyment of swimming. Family holidays are so much more fun now too! Thanks to everyone at Watersplash.
