About Us

Bubble Babies is a small family run business which is ran by sisters Natalie and Charlotte. 

We started our journey into the world of baby swimming through taking our own children and found a passion and love for water.  We believe that it’s the personal touch that matters which is why our classes offer teacher consistency so that we build strong relationships to help your child’s success in their swim journey.  Here’s a little bit about us!

Hi! I’m Natalie!

I started baby swimming 14 years ago with my first daughter Issy, after falling in love with my weekly classes I soon became a qualified teacher and co-managed a swim school for 10 years.  During that time I went on to have a further two children Harry and Freya and I have enjoyed watching each of my children grow to love the water.  Issy, my eldest , is now a competitive swimmer who swims for the City of Leicester performance club, and my youngest Freya swims for Penguins Swimming Club.  Since being introduced to competitive swimming I have qualified to volunteer as a Team Manager and a British Swimming Official!  Not only do I love the pool, I have also thrown myself into open water swimming.

Hi! I am Charlotte!

I started my love for education and teaching back at university and went on to qualify as a primary school teacher, I taught in KS1 for 6 years and loved working closely with children and their families.  When my two children, Ruby and Owen, were babies I loved taking them to their weekly swimming sessions, I found that it was extremely rewarding and fell in love with baby swimming.  I went on to qualify as a baby and preschool swimming teacher and absolutely love my job. I find it so rewarding to watch children grow in confidence and develop a lifelong love for water, like my children have, and to pass that knowledge onto future generations.
