Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about Swim with ME lessons.
Where is the pool?
Our pool is on the edge of Staplehurst. The full address is provided after a booking confirmation. Parking is available on site, and there is a walkable pavement all the way from the village to the pool.
What is the pool like?
The heated indoor pool is 10m by 5m with large steps to one side which allows for easy access. The pool is 1.2m at the shallow end and 2m at the deep end. There is seating inside for parents to watch and wait along with a small changing room and shower.
What should we bring to the pool?
Please bring comfortable well-fitting swimwear, a towel, swimming hat and goggles. For non-potty trained toddlers a good swimming nappy is required. We recommend using a Splash About Happy Nappy.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are handled securely through our online booking system, Soakly. We typically work on a termly basis, with fees due prior to the term starting.Â
What if my child is nervous?
