Water Babies franchise Logo

Water Babies is the world’s largest baby and toddler swimming franchise.

Since being established in 2002, Water Babies has ignited a great passion in UK parents for teaching their babies to swim, and each week, around 60,000 children take part in Water Babies classes in and outside of the UK. As well as being fun, Water Babies classes help to develop confidence in the water from an early age.

There are over 71 Water Babies franchises in the UK and Ireland. We have also expanded into Canada, New Zealand, China, Germany and The Netherlands. We are actively exploring Singapore, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Qatar.

Water Babies’ franchising success was recognised when we won the gold bfa HSBC Franchisor of the Year Award in 2016.

Our franchisees are given thorough training to make them the world’s best baby swimming teachers, and Water Babies teachers are the only ones who can achieve a diploma in baby swimming that is recognised nationally.

We also provide comprehensive support in other areas of the business including insurance, HR, IT, data protection, business planning, financial management, marketing, tax and VAT and training.

We are very proactive on social media, and post regular news and company updates.

The role of a Water Babies franchisee is exciting and rewarding. And no two days are the same. You will spend time talking to mums and dads, giving talks on your business, organising photo shoots, marketing your classes, finding suitable new venues, and teaching classes.

The typical start up cost of a Water Babies franchise is £30,000; you will need to invest a minimum of £10,000 of your own money.

At present, we are focusing on international expansion, so there are limited Water Babies franchise opportunities available within the UK. However, we occasionally have resale opportunities, so please contact us if you would like further information on availability.
