Swim Educator in the south UK. Passionate about child development and a fun approach to learning.
Don't forget there's no swimming this week.
23rd-29th October is half term.
I'll see you in the water on the 30th of October.
It’s the last lesson of the summer term ☀️
That can only mean one thing. My water safety lesson. Having fun and learning about how to stay safe in the water. My swimmers can come in clothes and we can experience saving a friend when in trouble. I can’t wait! 💦
It's the best part of mine too 💕
Water safety 🛟
Staying together, as well as stopping and thinking of the dangers, is another important aspect of the water safety code. Never swim alone.
That’s good stats for me.

Beach season is almost upon us.
Safety in the sea is paramount. These flags can help to ensure you know where and when to swim.

What does it mean‼️
Signs around water aren’t there for decoration. It’s really important, for our safety, that we understand the meanings of these signs.
Please be aware of winter water safety. Here’s a link to some useful information from the .

Hold to read!
Armbands vs Woggles.
Armbands have their use at keeping heads above water but they also give a false sense of security and have no room for progression, don’t even get me started on what they do to the body position.
Woggles/noodles however, aid flotation and progression. They can be adapted in many ways to increase and decrease support which aids confidence in the water with the security little ones need to thrive and the body position is on point 👌🏻
When a baby is submerged and water enters their mouth, the laryngeal, or ‘gag’ reflex makes the
glottis and epiglottis spasm, stopping water from entering the trachea, or windpipe. This
watertight seal stops baby inhaling water into the lungs.
We all have this reflex but it’s strongest in babies younger than 6 months old and lessens as they
start to take control of their own breathing when going under water.
Floating 💧
This experience comes so naturally to your little ones. They enjoy all the pleasures of floating and tapping into all their senses. What’s more is that they are fully trusting in you as you support your little one and the connection maintained through touch and eye connect strengthens that bond between you and baby. ❤️
We should know swimming 🏊♀️

I would like to wish all Mothers, soon to be, want to be and were, the happiest of mothers day’s. May today show you that all your hard work can now be rewarded by an excusable day of doing nothing ☺️

Hitting you with those . Today is all about the that makes the idea of swimming no fun. No threat chlorine beats p*e when met.
However, its no fun for you if your little one leaks a number 2. So please stick to our double nappy system so those number 2s stay in the cistern
Our babies are so clever. They internalise your actions from birth.
We are not born knowing how to smile or frown we learn this from our grown ups. Like snapshots the brain will take pictures and piece together how to copy. 🧠
Clever right?!😜
so when we are blowing bubbles to our 3 month olds we don’t expect them to copy but they are taking in all the information.
🥶Listen to the fish!
Our heads lose a lot of heat and a great way to keep heat in after an autumn/winter swim, is none other than a traditional wholly hat.
Get creative and make your own or buy some funky ones that show off your little one’s personality. Either way keep warm my happy swimmers.
☀️Bonding☀️
Swimming is not only a life skill but a bonding opportunity. You are your little ones safety blanket, so what better way to prove this than getting connected and skin to skin in a nice warm peaceful environment like the water.
Your baby will look upon and rely on you through many occasions in the water (and life). The pool experience can strengthen that bond and trust. Not only can it help with connecting you and your baby but the range of games and activities covered in lesson are sure to truly give you and baby a magical water experience to share together. 🪄
I always love hearing your feedback 💚
⚠️URGENT RECALL: Primark is recalling a further three baby plates. These are the Primark Bunny Character Wooden Plate, Bear Character Wood Plate and Rainbow Wood Plate. ➡️ https://whi.ch/BabyPlateRecall
As with the Winnie The Pooh Plate recall last month, all three were found to contain too much lead and formaldehyde.

🍂 Welcome October🍂
Autumn is my favorite time of the year.
Remember as the colder weather kicks in hats are a great way to keep the heat in after a refreshing swim.
🏴☠️ Themed lessons 🏴☠️
They are a great way to engage a child into the lesson. Help to understand skills and builds on their imagination.
Not only that but themed lessons help with your child’s development on helping them to understand the world through themed Easter, Halloween and even Christmas themes to name a few.
This, by far, is still my favorite mantra and being a swim teacher it suits me swimmingly...... hehe 😜 see what I did there 💦
Everyone is entitled to their opinions but it doesn’t mean we have to allow them to sink in (there I go again).
My advice would be is to take what you can learn from others opinions, form your own and let the rest drift away (I just can’t stop with these puns)
🤣
Have a great splish splash Saturday all 💦
🏃♀️ A firm fav with us teachers 🚫
💦 kids love to run we know that. However, the pool is a slippery haven and fast feet and wet floors don’t mix.
💦
Children mostly only hear 👂 the end of you sentence so it’s best to tell them what you want them to do ✔️rather than what you don’t. ✖️
I.e.
🚶♀️ WALKING FEET
will have more of an effect than 🏃♀️ DON’T RUN.
Kids hear run and off they go.
💤 Friday Facts 💤

Do I need to say anymore. Swimming is a good work out for your little one and you. It can improve the quality of sleep and aid/improve sleeping.

Enjoy a guilt free cuppa on us 😉
