# First Swim
First Swim operates dedicated baby swimming facilities in central Twickenham and Chiswick, specialising in aquatic instruction for infants and young children from 6 weeks to 7 years old. The business was established by parents who recognised the need for a more considerate approach to early childhood swimming education.
The facility distinguishes itself through several key features. Their purpose-built pools are maintained at consistently warm temperatures and subject to rigorous cleanliness standards, creating an optimal environment for very young swimmers. All instructors hold STA/ASA qualifications, ensuring professional, properly accredited teaching throughout the curriculum.
First Swim's offering extends across multiple progression levels, from Bright Start Babies courses for the youngest swimmers through to Kick-Start Kids programmes for children aged 4 and above. They accommodate varying needs with small group classes (4:1 ratios), one-to-one private tuition, and specialist SEND provision. The progressive level structure allows children to advance at their own pace through eight distinct competency stages.
Beyond swimming instruction, the business provides additional amenities including a coffee shop where parents and carers can relax whilst their children learn. Gift cards are available for those seeking to introduce others to their services.
The combination of purpose-built facilities, highly qualified instructors, flexible course options, and parent-friendly amenities positions First Swim as a comprehensive early years swimming solution designed specifically around the needs of young children and their families.
