Puddle Ducks Anmeldelser 

I’ve put my baby in paddle ducks for 5 months and it was wonderful the staff are lovely and it’s really made him more confident I initially wanted to start him so he got used to water for when we went away and we went away in January he loved the pool, he’s now 10 months he is having a break and then I can’t wait to continue the journey with paddle ducks again for the summer 😊

I can’t recommend Puddle Ducks enough!
My little girls confidence in the water has come on huge amounts since she first started. She absolutely loves the songs and activities and the teachers and staff are absolutely fabulous!! We look forward to our class every week and I am really looking forward to watching my little girl progress further.

Thank you so much Puddle Ducks Oxfordshire!!

We love Puddle Ducks, my 4.5 year old only started swimming just under a year ago and now he has been recommended to start Swim Academy. (Which means I do not have to enter the water with him) His confidence has grown, he’s much more independent in the water and he’s doing things he would never have done before taking lessons. Our teacher is great, she’s very observant and pushes him to be better all whilst making it fun. We are looking forward to see what else he can do as an independent swimmer.

I’ve been bringing my 14 month old daughter to lessons with puddle ducks since she was 4 months old and we both thoroughly enjoy our weekly lesson.
It is the perfect bonding activity and her confidence in the water has grown so much. The teachers have all been absolutely fantastic and no two lessons are the same. Thanks Puddle Ducks!

Both my children have attended Puddle ducks (daughter 8, son 3) since babies and absolutely love it.
Son is currently at the Warley Rd academy class on a Saturday morning and loves it.

I’ve been taking my son to puddleducks since he was 12 weeks old (he’s now 13 months) and it’s been brilliant. Theresa has been so accommodating, supportive and mindful no matter what mood he’s in or what stage he’s at and the classes are lovely and relatively small sized so not at all overwhelming. Couldn’t recommend it more to any new parents!!

Sam teaches my son at the Keelmans Way Hebburn. She is a fantastic teacher, she's patient and my son has come so far and loves to attend his lessons.
He loves his swimming lessons with Sam.

Puddle ducks are absolutely amazing!! I couldn't recommend them enough.

My son was previously in local leisure centre lessons for a year before I moved to Puddle ducks and in that year I seen no progress whatsoever.
Within 4 lessons with puddle ducks I could see huge progress and my son now loves his swimming lessons.
The teachers are amazing, special shout out to Carly, Ella and Rachel. Carly is absolutely wonderful, she knows exactly how to work with each individual child and I can't thank her enough for how far she's brought my son on in the last 6 months.
The lessons are quite expensive but its really a case of, you get what you pay for and it's totally worth it.

Thanks Puddleducks!

An amazing team that offers amazing swimming lessons. My son didn't settle immediately. I am grateful to Helen, Rob, and Suzi for their patience and amazing skills, which helped my son settle, and he is doing really well now. We are really grateful to all the teachers in Puddle Ducks. I wish them all the best; you are just amazing!!!

Claire at holiday inn Filton is great. She’s always very encouraging and packs lots into every class. My daughter doesn’t stop smiling

Our little boy has come on leaps and bounds since starting lessons a few months ago. Learning to swim is such an essential life skill - Im so pleased with how well he is learning and that the focus is on learning without armbands or those flotation vests - much safer as they wouldn’t have those if they were to fall in somewhere!

This is a joint vote for Laura and Abby who run the Level 1 swim academy lesson on a Wednesday night at Stonar! They are both wonderful with all of the children in their group, regardless of the children’s ability or character. They are kind and caring and allow time for each child to develop their individual swimming targets. They work so well as a team and make it look so easy teaching children in the water! Thank you both, Isla talks about you both so fondly!

Can’t recommend them enough, my child has gone from not being confident to knowing how to swim

Vikki is so passionate about teaching and she has made us feel so comfortable with taking Katie swimming. We can already see an improvement in Katie's swimming. She's also just a super friendly person who we genuinely enjoy talking to after lessons too! Her swimming lessons are the highlight of our week. To be honest we signed up for a free trial and planned to only to do that, but Vikki's enthusiasm has meant we have stayed on!

We've been swimming with Puddle ducks in Derby for the last 4 months, since my daughter was 2 months old. She loves it. At 2 months she was very colicy and cried at pretty much everything except her swimming lessons. And we always get a good long nap afterwards. Our teacher Lou is fantastic, it's the highlight of my daughter's week.
The online login is great for managing classes and the ability to cancel a class due to holidays or illness and book a courtesy class is great.

We've been to other swimming groups and the quality of the teaching has not been as good as puddleducks. Very pleased with the progress my little one has made in a short space of time.

I have no complaints about the lessons, the facilities are good and staff are nice – however Puddle Ducks set you up on a recurring payment plan without your agreement.

I block booked 10 lessons and paid for this in advance, upon doing so received an email which states “Subsequently we take monthly payments” – considering the agreement was to purchase 10 lessons only, the above sentence is assumed to be based on IF I want / agree to further classes. The less vague wording of this is within a hyperlink on the email – “All customers are automatically signed up to Monthly Payments”.
Who really expects to have to delve into this level of detail when you’ve followed the route of buying a set amount of lessons, sending a hyperlink in an email does not mean I agree to something.

If you miss a class and want to rebook you have to be on a recurring payment schedule, leaving a very small windows of opportunity to do this if you don’t intend on being a long term customer.

Why do kids swimming lessons have to have such strange tactics…

My little one has been swimming with Puddle Ducks since she was 3 months. Now nearly 12 months her confidence in and her love for the water is amazing! She loves her weekly classes.
Lovely, knowledgeable instructors. Classes adapted to little ones needs.
Would definitely recommend.

My son has been in puddle ducks since he turned 2. I was worried I had left it to late to get his use to the pool and being around water safely. With his teacher Anne’s guidance and friendly approach he’s a confident boy in the water and knows how to safely enter and exit the water, holding onto the side and not letting go. He loves going to his puddle duck lessons and is so excited when we pull up outside. All within 6 months of lessons I feel confident taking him to a swimming pool on my own.

Been taking my son to Puddleducks then Swim Academy at Baron's Quay in Northwich for 9 months now and it's been brilliant for him. I really like their approach to learning to swim (no body-worn buoyancy aids) and all the teachers we've met are friendly and firm. The private facility they have at Baron's Quay is exceptional - always clean and tidy, even if the changing rooms are very warm (perfect if you have a baby but less welcome when you're a middle-aged woman!)
