Our Story

Kiddies Aqua Swimming Academy was established in 2011 by its current owners, Lizette and Arrie Botha. They previously owned Aqua Kid Swim School in Nelspruit for more than 17 years before Lizette became the head coach at Ryk Neethling’s swim school in Pretoria for three years. Lizette is celebrating her 30th anniversary as swimming teacher this year. She and Jean Fouace are the founder members of Amphibies Babies Africa. Jean is the pioneer and original developer of the Self-Rescue Water Safety Method for babies in the world since 1967 (Les Bébés Amphibies - Switzerland).

Kiddies Aqua has grown into the largest infant- and toddler swimming school in Africa (and most probably in the world). We serve more than 2 000 swimmers on a monthly basis at our two heated indoor branches in Pretoria (Moreleta Park and University of Pretoria). We have also got a franchised outlet in Alberton (Meyersdal) and will soon be opening another branch in Cape Town.

Lizette holds a degree in Human Movement Science (UP). She is a registered Learn-to-Swim Instructor with Swimming South Africa. She is also a member of Tuks Swimming Coaches Association and holds many other national- and international certifications and accreditation. She has spent more than 85 000 hours in the water and has taught more than 8 500 babies to be water safe and 18 000 children and adults to swim so far. She also taught H.S.H. Princess Charlene of Monaco’s two babies (Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella) to be water safe and serves as project manager for the Princess’s Foundation. The aim of the Foundation is to create awareness around water safety all over the world. We initiate and run many uplifting-projects among the poorer communities of South Africa.

Lizette is South Africa’s top baby floating specialist with accolades from M-Net’s Carte Blanche, Supersport and Kwêla and SABC’s Top Billing and Pasella doing programs on her and her unique teaching method. Both her daughters were regularly included in South Africa’s National Junior Swimming Squads when still at school and are currently studying and swimming in the USA on swim scholarships.

We have an additional thirteen full-time, highly qualified- and experienced instructors in our employment and an additional two instructors assisting us over weekends. They are mostly graduates in Human Movement Science, Childhood Psychology, Teaching, Sports Science and Sports Management.

We offer the following programs, namely:

Self-Rescue Water Safety Program for babies (from ages 6-24 months)

Learn-to-Swim Program for toddlers and young children (from ages 2-12 years)

Stroke Correction Program for young gala swimmers (any age)

Swimming- and stroke correction lessons for adults (18-years and older)

Swimming lessons for Special Needs Children (any age)

Through all these various programs and phases we still maintain a strong emphasis on water safety and self-rescue. We make sure each swimmer is highly competent is a specific phase/program before moving him/her onto the next phase. We follow a program with a purpose and allow each child to progress according to his/her own ability.
