Founded by Rae Miles, BabyH2O brings 19+ years of baby swimming experience to families across Sutton and Cheam.
Whether you’re searching for infant swimming programmes in Sutton with certified instructors or parent and baby swimming sessions in Cheam, babyH2o provides expert-led, heart-led experiences that truly make a difference.
There are many swim schools, but few with our heart, heritage, and structure. Here’s why local families choose us:
Originally from South Africa, Rae has always had a strong connection to water. After enrolling her own sons in baby swimming lessons, she discovered her passion for teaching and never looked back. With over 19 years’ experience, Rae developed babyH2o’s structured “Building Blocks” approach, designed to help babies progress confidently from early water play to independent swimming.
She launched babyH2o in Sutton, where her warm, clear teaching style quickly earned her a loyal community of local families. In 2025, Rae expanded the programme to Cheam, providing a seamless next step for more advanced learners.
A lifelong swimmer from Sutton, Gemma began teaching at 14, inspired by her mother and sisters who all worked in the same local swim school. She qualified in 2010 and has since taught babies, children, and adults across London.
After taking time out to raise her two boys, Gemma returned to teaching and connected with Rae while covering classes. Her calm, supportive style and deep local roots make her a perfect fit for families seeking toddler swimming classes in Cheam.
BabyH2O keeps lessons positive, predictable and full of encouragement. Teachers watch each child closely, adapt activities where needed and help parents understand the little steps that lead to confident swimming.
Songs, toys and games are used with intention, helping children practise movement, breath control, listening and safe pool routines without pressure.
Parents are guided through holds, cues and reassurance techniques so they feel comfortable supporting their child in and around water.
If you are looking for patient, structured baby swimming lessons in Sutton or Cheam, send an enquiry and the team will guide you from there.
