Can anyone recommend a private swimming teacher for my 5 (going on 6) year old daughter?

She?s sort of confident in the water and does group lessons, but we feel she needs that extra level of private attention to give her the confidence to learn to swim without a float etc

Thank you

I can recommend the teachers at the JAGS pool who are working hard to help my son who is still struggling with water confidence at age 9 (nearly 10). The pool at JAGS is really well looked after too.


We've tried a lot of the group lessons locally and I can recommend Crystal Palace:

We are only going down the 121 route because my son is nearly 10 and still can't swim properly and I don't want it to be an issue for him.


Good luck wherever you choose.

    • Thanks @Sue I had no idea what they delivered. Personally I just dont get why anyone living in London would bother with something like this, We can all pop down the road and buy bread, pastries etc and know what we're getting.. Just seems a bit of a yuppie fad and waste of money. But thats just my opinion!
    • How to you grow these? I've scattered meadow flower seeds many a time, but thistles don't take and I doubt if alder and birch is common round here.  Teasels pop up now and then, but even if they are self seeding usually don't see them the next year.  It was nice seeing the gold finches feeding off these when I do have them.  I do let the dandelions grow but not sure I've seen finches feeding off them.  I understand they are a great source of nectar for bees, butterflies and the like. On a related subject my lawns have changed greatly over the last couple of decades, warmer wetter winters, springs, earlier springs, droughts in the summer.  Moss and brambles thrive....
