Monthly Swim lessons

All swimming lessons are booked in advance upfront. Everyone pays for the full month’s lessons – (one 30-​minute lesson per week) your lessons are booked in for the same day and time every week for the duration of ​the month. Depending on what day you have booked in for, depends on how many lessons you will be charged ​for that month. For example, some months have 5 weeks so this would total to 5 swimming lessons that month, ​if it’s just 4 weeks your pay for 4 swimming lessons.

When you make a booking and payment has been received in full, you will be sent an email to confirm the ​booking for the lessons you have booked your child onto. Each month you will receive an emailed invoice asking ​you to pay for the next month’s swimming lessons upfront. Your lessons will continue as normal each month on ​the same day and time that you originally booked onto as long as your payment is made in full on 03rd of each ​month when due. All lesson must be paid in full when your booking is made, we do not allow payment on the ​day, and we do not hold slots once payment dates have passed.

Should for any reason the scheduled payment date need to be changed or adjusted we will notify our customers ​in advance of this happening. we do try our best to ensure its the same date, however on very rare occasions its ​been changed with advance notice provided.

Lesson Renewal

All clients will automatically be billed and charged on 03rd of each month for the renewal of next month’s ​lessons, if you have decided you do not want to continue swimming lessons we require a minimum of 1 months ​notice to cancel. failure to give the 1 months required notice will incur additional cancelation fees.

for example: you must cancel a minimum of 30 days before the course month is due to start:

current swimming month: september

last booked in month: october (this is the one months notice providing you have let us know before 01st october ​that your not renewing for november)

Not renewed for: november - no swimming

Failure to inform the office with the required full 30 days cancelation notice about non-renewal will mean clients ​are automatically renewed onto the next course. A 50% admin charge will be applied, should you cancel after the ​required notice. As our lessons are only short monthly courses as a business, we require the notice to avoid ​empty slots or clients not being able to swim. Short monthly courses mean we keep the cost down for our ​clients.

All swimming lessons are booked monthly back-to-back in advance we do not skip weeks due to non-​attendance. If you do not wish to do this, you can choose to not renew however your slot will go up for sale ​please ensure you notify about non-renewal a minimum of 30 days before the month starts.

we open all year round for lessons but generally close for a break at christmas and close on bank holidays ( if for ​any reason we decide to open on a bank holiday or over christmas we will notify our customers in advance of ​that month being paid for.

Cancelling a swimming lesson

All clients will be allowed to cancel a Maximum of 1 swimming lesson per month, any additional cancellations will ​become a loss. To cancel a swimming lesson clients Must cancel BEFORE 8AM that swim day to qualify for a ​courtesy lesson, any cancellations received after 8am will become a loss. To cancel your swim lesson, you must ​send a text message only to- 07568136112 (do not cancel via members hub)

Notice of cancelation for a holiday must be given at least 2 weeks before your booked class (still only allowed a ​maximum of 1 cancelation per month) any additional will become a loss.

Courtesy lessons are NOT guaranteed they will be subject to our availability at that time, so lessons may still ​become a loss. You will have 30 days from your cancelled class to book in for courtesy swim class. It is client’s ​responsibility to regularly contact the office to try and book in a courtesy lesson. at present we run a weekly ​cancellation list that you will be added to each week you request a catch up. You will need to provide the office ​of your availability.

The courtesy lesson will need to be on an alternative day to your regular swim class. We will only offer you 1 ​courtesy date, if you refuse this date your lesson will become a loss. Please remember a courtesy lesson could ​arise on the day at short notice. we cannot keep offering slots and courtesy lesson availability will change daily.

Courtesy lessons will not be tagged onto the end of courses.

Should your swimming class be cancelled by tiny tots splashes an alternative swimming lesson will be offered, no ​credits or refunds given.

Company Cancellation of swimming Lessons

As frustrating as it might be sometimes children do have accidents in the pool and staff do become unwell or ​the pool can have technical issues. When this happens, we might have to cancel your booked in swimming ​lesson. If for any reason your swimming lesson is cancelled by us, we will contact you to reschedule for a ​courtesy class. If we do need to cancel your swimming lesson the admin staff will do their very best to contact ​you ASAP, to make you aware of the cancelled lesson. If for any reason the class attendance is less than usual ​we may also contact you to reschedule. We do not offer refunds/credits or tag lessons over.

Double Protection Policy

Please ensure that all children who are/or are not toilet trained i.e., babies and toddlers up to the age of 3 years, ​wear Double Protection every visit to the swimming pool. We Require both the disposable little swimmers ​nappies and a Happy Nappy over the top (made by splash about), this is a reusable swim nappy, and both must ​be worn every Swim visit. Splash about Happy nappy’s can be purchased from the Tiny Tot’s office or online ​direct from www.splashabout.co.uk.The Double Protection Policy helps hugely with avoiding accidents occurring ​during a swimming lesson that may cause pool closure and lessons to be cancelled.

Nappies and changing your baby

Tiny Tots splashes Has the right to refuse entry to any child who is not suitably attired. Babies wearing Splash ​about Snugs, costumes and any other swimwear must still wear a Happy Nappy and a disposable swimming ​nappy. Inside the venue we always have 5 separate changing cubicles for privacy, this is to accommodate the 5 ​swimmers having a lesson. In each changing room you are supplied with baby changing mat, changing table, ​Baskets for personal belongings and a travel cot. changing tables to be used at your own risk and are for ​children 16months and under. please do not use any other raised area such as benches or trollies this is to ​prevent babies rolling onto the floor from high surfaces which can easily happen and is extremely distressing for ​all concerned.

What time to arrive in the car park:

Due to limited car parking facilities Clients must not arrive too early as this can cause major queuing coming in ​the car park. We have a 15 min flowing system if this is followed clients will always be able to park on time. ​please do not enter the car park any earlier than 15 mins before your swim class starts. This allows you 5 mins to ​enter the main entrance ready for when you can enter the changing rooms 10 mins before the class starts.

The car park and main entrance is monitored to ensure we have a smooth running always set up, so if you have ​arrived too early you may be advised to wait in your car or turn around and come back when there's space, ​please do not feel offended it’s just to ensure everyone including yourself can park on time and are following the ​rules.

Medical Conditions

when you first book with tiny tots you will be asked for any existing medical conditions for either yourself, ​another carer who may swim in the lessons and your child who is booked into the swimming lessons. We ask all ​parents to fill out an enrolment form online when you book. We stress that all parents or carers must inform tiny ​tots of any changes, including pregnancy, as soon as you are aware of the changes. All information will be kept ​strictly confidential and for our records only.

Rules and Hygiene

Please do not eat/feed your child any later than 1 hour and 30 mins before swimming to allow enough time for ​digestion and to help avoid/minimise the risk of sick accidents. To help keep our facilities clean and welcoming ​throughout our operation of everyday lessons, we request that clients follow the following requests.

• DO NOT USE MOBILE PHONES/VIDEOS/IPADS OR ANYTHING WITH A CAMERA IN THE POOL ROOM
  

We often get asked what’s the point in showering before we have a lesson, A quick rinse in the shower will ​hugely reduce the number of bacteria that we all carry as humans from entering the pool. It also helps remove ​any moisturisers/deodorants that we all apply daily, we like to keep the clarity of pool water nice and crystal ​clear so please help us maintain this and shower before every lesson even if you in a rush and running late a ​shower is still necessary!

Spectators:

As a small swimming school offering swimming lessons from our family home, Due to our insurance Policy we ​have a no-Spectator rule. We are only allowed one adult to attend per child swimming. This is also to avoid ​swimming classes being disrupted by spectators’ noise on pool side, and to ensure your child gets the most out ​of each lesson as well as minimising any overcrowding in a small area.

If you arrive with an additional spectator sadly, we will politely refuse their entry.

My son has been going since he was 10 weeks old and he is now 8months old…the progress he has made with their understanding and patience is remarkable!!

He absolutely loves water now and will happily go underwater on command along with paddling and kicking too! Soooo glad I joined this private swim school and would highly recommend to others.

The place is also extremely clean at all times, with allocated parking and help always on hand. Especially when you go and forget things last minute!

B started swimming with you at 6 weeks old and, aside from covid shutdowns, has been going ever since! She loves the water and the fun activities that your teachers use to practise their skills, and I'm constantly amazed at what she can do now. We've had a number of teachers due to catch up sessions etc and everyone we've had has been brilliant. We love Tiny Tots Splashes and can't wait to get her little brother into lessons!

My daughter has been swimming with tinytots for almost a year and she has come on so far, but most importantly she absolutely loves it. Everyone is always so helpful, I was kept fully up to date during the pandemic and I always feel that the children are the priority in every sense
