About

Octotots is an established baby, toddler and academy swim, with over 10 years experience. Our highly trained teachers work using the Swim Teacher Associations (STA) framework for teaching swimming as a life-saving skill.
Our teachers are passionate and committed to teaching babies and young people to swim. We strongly believe that every child should have the opportunity to learn to swim and learn to be safe around water. Unfortunately, drowning remains in the top 3 causes of accidental death amongst children in the UK and we want to change this.
