Crèche Testimonials
Highly recommended
The creche girls are AMAZING! Really helped me with my physical and mental health! The girls are great with the kids; so much care and attention to all the children. Chantel and Becky are my fave! Thank you for all your help. Highly recommended!
The creche is invaluable to me
As a mum the creche is invaluable to me, there is so much in the media about the stresses and loneliness of being a mother to babies, having a safe place for your little one whilst mum gets some me time and the amazing benefits of fitness and exercise. You have got this spot on…. couldn’t recommend enough.
Kind Staff
Lovely little setup, kind staff in the creche, very thoughtful for mums, highly recommend.
Thank You
I just wanted to thank the creche staff. It’s an amazing facility and I feel confident with their care of my baby. Many thanks.
Lovely Staff
I was nervous taking my boy to creche so I could use the gym – as I have never left him before. He absolutely loves it and hates leaving! The ladies are so lovely and I recommended to anyone.
I feel so much happier
Thanks to the girls in the creche I was so nervous but they have settled so well and enjoy coming. I was struggling balancing parenting and working – I feel so much happier now I have joined, thank you.

We do not provide snacks however snacks can be brought in. Strictly no nut products (including chocolate spread)
We can collect your child from the pool at your preferred time, bring your child into creche and get them dried and dressed. We can also change your child into their swim stuff in the creche and pass them into the pool to you as the parent, or we can offer to drop off the child and then pick back up service. We just ask parents to make sure they are booking this correctly on the creche bookings to allow ratio numbers to be followed in the creche.
We will always inform the parent after 15 to 20 minutes if we cannot settle their child
You can if the child is in your care at the time, however if their parent is also in the centre friends cannot book for them.
