Jellytots-Swim School

Jellytots-Swim School From their first splash, swimming lessons help to develop a child's confidence and competence in the water and beyond.

With over 20 years experience, the founder of
Jellytots Swim School, Anne Kingsbury is a passionate swimming instructor and Aquatherapist working from two different swimming pools. Lancaster School pool, directly opposite Southend Hospital. What makes Jellytots Swim School special, is the journey we help facilitate for our Mums and Dads’ giving them the confidence to develop the life saving skill

s, being involved in the teaching process and ultimately having an amazing time. We have classes Monday to Sunday, the Saturday and Sunday classes are particularly attractive to Dads’ who find it difficult to interact and bond in an activity like swimming lessons during the week. All the classes are carefully structured to build confidence in the parents to teach their babies life saving skills. The essence of the class is built on fun and trust, passed on from the teacher to the parent. We feel it is very important for babies and toddlers to have regular exercise especially with the rise of health issues in young children. Anne's experiences working with children and adults, with all levels of ability and disability, has given her a unique understanding of how bodies work in water.

Feeling nervous about starting swimming lessons?
You’re not alone 🤍

We speak to so many parents who worry their little one might cry, cling, or just not take to the water straight away… and that’s completely normal.

At Jellytots, we expect those nerves – and we gently work through them at your child’s pace. No pressure, no rushing, just lots of encouragement, smiles, and small wins 💫

Our lessons are designed to build confidence step by step, helping your child feel safe, secure, and eventually… excited to be in the water!

And the best part? That moment when it all clicks 🥹
When the tears turn into giggles, and they don’t want to get out.

If you’ve been putting it off because you’re unsure… this is your sign to give it a go 💙
