Who we are
A local family owned and operated swim school established in 2002. Aquatots was developed with the intention to assist in lowering the drowning statistics in Australia.
We achieve this by fostering and encouraging a lifelong love and respect for the aquatic environment from an early age. We teach children to swim and survive in a fun, engaging and inclusive environment.
The dedicated and highly
qualified team at Aquatots truly care about being a consistent support person for the children in their classes. Holding relevant and required qualifications, our dedicated team of instructors do their best to be there each week of the term.
At Aquatots, our program is designed to develop the whole child- mentally and physically, through carefully structured, play based learning in the water.
Beyond teaching the vital swimming and water safety skills, our lessons nurture confidence, resilience, and emotional well-being by providing a safe and supportive environment where children can
explore, take risks, and celebrate success.
Our program not only provides a quick learning path to being safer in and around water but ensures every child grows not just as a swimmer but as a well rounded individual ready to thrive both in and out of the water.
Award winning programs for babies from 6 weeks to
squad level swimming. Our qualified team lead the way.
Swimming for Life
Qualified instructors teach life-saving skills through a unique, award-winning program. It includes adult swimming lessons in Canberra, with proven results.
Here's what "water safety" actually means:
Your 3-year-old falls in a pool. Can they turn around, grab the edge, and call for help? That's lesson one. Everything else builds from there.
We teach swimming as a life skill, not just a sport.
