I take my little boy to hucknall. It’s from 4 months. I’ve not had an issue with the temperature there but I know some people say it can be cold.
Otherwise we did join waterbabies and they use a hyro pool but it was pretty expensive for what it was so we switched.

Water babies is an expensive choice but run sessions in multiple locations in notts.
I go to the university which is more reasonable in price for lessons but you need to join the waiting list and it’s quite oversubscribed.
I know they also do baby classes at Bramcote leisure centre and I think the council ones also do them (don’t know about price or timings of those)
what's the pricing like at hucknall? I tried water babies but for what it is I can't justify spending so much money

Most of the council pools (city and county) cost about £26 a month for baby swimming lessons...not sure which one your closest to but the County do a free trial too.

We go to Carlton Forum and have been happy enough - the lessons at leisure centres are about half the price of water babies etc. and it’s warm enough. They also do sessions throughout the week for babies and toddlers which you can book on to when you want to go, rather than committing to weekly sessions.

I take my 8 month old to puddleducks and he loves it. There's a few across Notitngham

Victoria park in Ilkeston do lessons at £26.50 a month and also do a sensory family swim most days. The pool is warm too, well warmer than the normal pool.

Puddle ducks all the way, they are great. X
