Feedback we have received

Prioritising water safety

"Waterabilities has been an absolute game-changer for my child with autism. As a parent, water safety has always been a major concern, especially after reading about the increased drowning risk for children with autism. However, the tailored approach and expertise of the Waterabilities program have given us peace of mind. The instructors understand the unique needs of children with autism and have created a supportive and safe environment for my child to learn water safety skills. The progress my child has made in such a short time is remarkable, and I am incredibly grateful to the dedicated team at Waterabilities for empowering my child to navigate the water with confidence and joy."

Trauma-informed programs

"Waterabilities has been a lifeline for our child who had a traumatic water experience. After the incident, our child developed a massive deep fear of water, and it seemed almost impossible to help them overcome it. That's when we discovered Waterabilities, and it has truly been a transformative experience. The instructors at Waterabilities understand the impact of trauma and have created a nurturing and secure environment for our child. Through their patient and compassionate approach, our child has gradually built trust and confidence in the water again. It's a testament to the tailored techniques and supportive atmosphere of Waterabilities that our child now feels safe and secure, allowing them to enjoy the water once more."

They have created a supportive and inclusive environment where our child feels valued and encouraged. Through tailored instruction and patience, our child has made incredible progress in their swimming abilities. Waterabilities has not only taught our child to swim but has also boosted his confidence and self-esteem. We are forever grateful for the positive impact Waterabilities has had on our child's life."
