The pool and facilities at Kingston Water Babies are substandard to least. You have to enter the facility via the fire exit door and immediately take off you shows, which is a nightmare with full gear and baby in tow. It becomes even worse when you leave the facility as you have to walk across the wet floor put down your baby and bag on to a wet floor just to put your shoes back on.
The lessen is well structured but the pool is too shallow and you have to bend all lesson long. Also, when the previous class leave and the new class arrive they have to leave via the only entrance which is directly next to the pool. In winter this lets in a horrendous cold wind which is just asking for poorly babies.
The changing rooms are mixed sex and only have four "cubicles" which is not even close to being enough.
All in all I am not impressed and from past experience from other water babie pools I naively expexted better.

I have also reviewed the same facility (we were there on Sunday..) I can see that we both had the same opinion on the lack of quality of the facilities. I forgot to mention in my review that when we were there in Sunday the ceiling tiles were all loose and old (read mouldy/rusty and not attached to the frame they should have been sitting in) and there were cement pieces in the pool! I honestly have never encountered such an utter scheme in my life before and hope that our reviews warn off other people..Wish I had read them before booking..
