Excellent instructor Melanie!
Melanie was very patient from the start. My twins had different needs though both were beginners and she adapted herself to their needs, giving them the space and time to gain in confidence and begin to love the water. Thoroughly recommend Melanie and the intensive 1-2-1 lessons to give children a headstart. My only issue was the on day one the water was cold (26°) due to the heater tripping the night before and there was no apology or heads up about it from the company. It was fixed and from day two it was nice and warm. However no comms which is why this review is 4 stars not 5.

The swim teacher has been great
The swim teacher has been great, the right mix of encouraging and firm, with a bit of fun thrown in. We were lucky to have a small class size. My son's swimming has really come on over a couple of terms. Would recommend.

Best swimming lessons around by far!
We attend Saturday lessons at blue coat school in Reading and my twin girls are with thier swiming teacher Aston who is absolutely amazing! He pays constant attention to them and makes sure they fully understand everything before moving on. Melanie who is in charge is so on the ball with everything, so organised and super friendly! Highly recommend the attention to detail and professionalism is off the scale! My kids love it here

Our little ones love it
We couldn’t be happier with our experience at HydroKidz Children’s Swim School! Both of our children have been attending lessons for several months now, and the progress they’ve made has been truly remarkable.From the very first call, the support from the HydroKidz team has been friendly, clear and genuinely helpful, we always feel listened to and guided with patience and professionalism.Every instructor we’ve met has been warm, encouraging and highly skilled. They consistently make lessons fun and engaging while also pushing the children to improve their technique and confidence in the water. Seeing our little ones come out of the pool smiling and proud of themselves week after week has been fantastic. We cannot recommend them highly enough, a huge thank you to the whole team for the difference they’ve made to our children’s confidence and skills!

Avoid
Avoid – extremely poor value and unfair practicesI had a very disappointing experience with this swimming company. They cancelled a lesson at the last minute and, when challenged, simply hid behind their small print and repeated “no refunds” rather than offering any reasonable solution or make-up lesson.Because of half term, the programme was then closed for three weeks, yet they still expected £50 for delivering absolutely nothing during that period. Faced with paying for weeks of no service, I decided to cancel – only to be told I had to pay another £50 to cover December, a month in which they would only deliver two lessons due to Christmas anyway.In total, I paid hundreds of pounds for only a handful of lessons. The lack of flexibility, poor customer service, and reliance on small print instead of fairness is unacceptable.Approach with extreme caution – this company prioritises fees over customers

Fun and Focused
My 8 year old son has made great progress with his swimming and general confidence in the water under the careful eye of the instructors at Hydrokidz. There has been a renewed focus recently on marking his improvement with certificates and badges and this has really helped with his sense of achievement, enjoyment and focus. The pool at Mary Hare is really nice and there is a calm and focused atmosphere. The teachers are kind, attentive and fun. Overall, delighted.

Jack
Our son has always had a wonderful experience with his swimming lessons at Cranbourn School Basingstoke, he is so independent now when we go swimming it has allowed him to enjoy it so much more. He had his first session with Jack today. Jack managed to put so much into the lesson while being friendly and calm, it was so good to see our son gain so much and progress while having fun. He really enjoys himself and we really appreciate everything that has been done

Thank you Hydrokidz
Thank you everyone at Hydrokidz, you taught two of my children how to swim from three years old and were fantastic. Very professional and kind. Great venue at Bluecoats with easy parking.

My son now loves swimming
When my son started at hydrokidz he had no confidence in the water and would get really upset at the beginning of each lesson but with an instructor like Chick that all changed very quickly. Chick is patient, engaging and makes sure all the children in his group get the attention then require. He makes learning fun with his great enthusiasm and now my son looks forward to his lessons. When we went on holiday we really noticed how far he had come and that’s all thanks to his lessons with chick at hydrokidz.

I would definitely highly recommend the Hydrokidz intensive courses. We have completed a few courses now and we can always see lots of progress by the end of the week. Mel was fantastic! She made the lessons fun for the children while keeping them motivated. The children enjoyed the course and learnt lots of tips to improve their swimming strokes!
