HydroKidz Swim School Reviews 

Happy with the Hydrokidz service, they are flexible if you need to change your slot, keep you posted with the progress of your child with an online account and regular reporting.

Special shout out to James for helping my son, as can see significant progress in his swimming abilities and confidence.

We’ve had an incredible experience with our swim teachers, and I just have to shout out Teacher Ben and especially Edward. Ben brings great energy and keeps the kids motivated and engaged every session. But Edward has been a true standout — his understanding of autism is exceptional. He approaches every lesson with patience, compassion, and a calm confidence that makes such a difference. Edward truly sees each child for who they are, meeting them where they’re at and helping them thrive. It’s not just swim instruction — it’s inclusive, thoughtful guidance that builds trust and confidence in and out of the water.
With Monica’s leadership and such a dedicated team, we couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Jessica has a week intensive course with Ben at Reading blue coat. The course helped her really get the technique of her strokes. The fact that the teacher is in the pool demonstrating has really helped her. They helped her move from level 4 to 5 and even practiced diving. She loved it! Facilities good too, all coaches friendly and the pool is warm! Thank you!

Our child had a great experience and made terrific progress in a week. It was great to see their confidence build in such a short period of time. We are very grateful to Ben.

Hydrokidz at Reddam house in Wokingham is amazing. I have my two kids going there and they totally love it. Every time I can see them improving thanks to the great work the instructors are doing. Omar is brilliant with my daughter at higher level. My son is 3 and half and he just started with Tara. She did amazing job to settle him down and make him enjoy his lessons. Thanks for the great work.

We are really impressed with our swimming teacher for our son and daughter.
Omar goes above and beyond and he’s a great teacher and has really helped build their confidence in the water. Our son is quite a nervous swimmer and Omar has really taken the time to get to know what works best with our son.
We have noticed such a difference in his swimming and confidence.
Thank you so much for always being great with both our children.

Amy teaches my grandson lennie shes very good with him and hes doing very well

Amy is an instructor, incredibly patient and very friendly. Highly recommended

Really friendly teachers. Put my son at ease in the water

I booked my two sons in for the half term crash course. They loved it! Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and quickly recognised where the weaknesses were and focused on that. My younger son hadn't had swimming lessons at all and by the end of the week, he was swimming! It was amazing to see. I can't thank the wonderful staff at Hydrokidz enough. I will definitely be signing them up for weekly lessons. Thank you!!!

Our son has been learning with Omar for over a year, and he's regularly progressing through the achievement levels. Omar has a great rapport with the children, and our son really loves his lessons.

My daughter’s 2nd lesson as she is really improving already due to her swim teacher Ali . He is a fantastic teacher

Helpful and caring staff and low teacher, student ratio. My 3 have a great time. Special thanks to Ruben, Ayan, and Aston.

My son has been learning to swim with hydrokidz since he was 3 and really enjoys his lessons. The groups are small and the sessions always find fun ways to develop skills and confidence. Big thank you to current teacher Ayan for enjoyable sessions each week!

Chak Fung L (Sam): He is an amazing teacher, with loads of patience. He ensures perfection and my daughter really enjoys swimming and started progressing. A perfect 121 session, highly recommended.

Hydrokids is a lovely friendly swim school. The groups are small so the children get lots of attention and help. The teachers are friendly and explain and demonstrate what they want the children to do. Progression is done at the child’s pace and they move up when they are ready. They get certifiable badges to show progress. Highly recommend if you are looking for a friendly swim school.

Our daughter loves coming to swimming lessons now … today she’s had a session with Chloe who has just been superb in building confidence!

Couldn’t be happier with the staff at HydroKidz. James has really helped our daughter find confidence in the water. He’s always happy and so patient with the kids.

My son really enjoys the lessons and always tries something new each week while building on what he’s already learnt. Changing rooms and pool are nice and clean, friendly teachers, I would recommend!

Great teaching, my son has progressed slowly (his style) but well. Consistent and professional. Communications could be better but most info you need it on the portal.
