Water Babies
Hi ladies
Just wondering if anyone is thinking of doing a swimming course with Water Babies? ( http://www.waterbabies.co.uk/index.php ) It's quite expensive compared to just a course run by the local leisure centre but it looks really good. And they do special classes for babies under 12 weeks/lbs in hydrotherapy pools in some areas so they don't get too cold, which would be ideal for Olyvia as she's only 7lb 9oz still.
I can't wait to take Lyvi swimming and really hope we can get on one of these courses. Got to order her a mini wetsuit now!! Finally found somewhere that does premature/tiny baby size so hopefully it fits her!

I asked the HV and she said it's ok to go after 1st jabs and on the WB website it says you can start anytime: http://www.waterbabies.co.uk/immunisations.php
It also says on there that the official NHS guidelines say you can go anytime!

I really do recommend waterbabies as I think they're great and if you get the chance to do the underwater photo's then I would go for it. Unfortunately Ellie was poorly at the time so we never did but they look great and are a great memory for the future. Ellie now hasn't been in a pool for a few months but she keeps asking me to go swimming so I must get organised and get William a wetsuit and head to the pool!!!
have you managed to get her on a course, they dont have space for us until may (
Our closest hydro pool one was booked up so have to travel a bit further but hopefully it'll be worth it. Very excited! And next term we can go to a normal pool which is a bit closer.
Sorry you have to wait till May Becca (

The Water Babies courses are more expensive but because they tend to use private pools the water is generally warmer whch is better when they are small.
Your little ones will love it.
