Marbella to Estepona
Before taking on the franchise for Marbella swim bebe swim, I was a primary school teacher for nearly 20 years, a job I absolutely loved.
When I had a little girl three and a half years ago, we made the decision that I would give up work for three years so that I could be at home with her. As the three years was coming to an end, I began to feel worried about going back to work full time and that was when Claire approached me about the franchise.
Lily had been swimming since she was five months old and her achievements are amazing, so I knew the method of teaching worked, it was a way of doing the sort of work I love, but with the flexibility to be there for my daughter, it's having the best of both worlds.
After a period of excellent training both from Claire and the STA tutor I took over the Marbella franchise a year ago. The work is great, I have met some fantastic people and their children, it has been a pleasure to watch the progress made by the children and in some cases the parents as well!
I have really enjoyed meeting expectant mums at Aqua Natal classes and then seeing their babies when they bring them for their first swimming lesson, that really is a special feeling.
Swim bebé swim has given me the chance to continue doing a job I enjoy, but with the flexibility to continue to be a full time mum as well and not forgetting the fact that I am also making money, so am managing to maintain some independence.
What more can a person ask?

Estepona to Torreguadiaro
Torreguadiaro to Algeciras and Gibraltar
Before I joined SBS I worked in a private banking industry which I found very interesting but never personally fullfilling, then I took a break from work to bring up my children and found out about baby swimming which I enjoyed so much - I admired the swim teacher for doing what she was doing and dreamed about being able to do it myself one day.
Then the opportunity came to become a franchisee and I didnt doubt it for a second. I took the training and started teaching straight away. Now my daughter is two and swimming independently and my son is 10 months and is on his way to be a super swimmer so I'm ever so thankful that I took on being a swim bebé swim franchisee!
