I have a little boy who loves the water, very confident in the water however he is not a swimmer.
I try to take him swimming myself as much as possible, but feel he would benefit from some lessons. Swimming is one of those things that I think he should know how to do before he's too old.

Does anyone know what date the next council lessons go up? Or can you recommend a good private swim coach?
I have previously been away/missed council dates and have heard they are tricky to get into?
Thanks. smile

My niece had lessons in DW sports in Bromborough, I think the company is called 'swimtime' but I don't think they start lessons until the child is 5, hence me asking smile

I learnt to swim at Byrne Avenue as did all 3 of my daughters. Fantastic coaches although a bit scruffy - and sadly now shut (I think)
