Meet Steph,
the founder of Aquastars!

With over 15 years of experience in pool settings, I have a deep-rooted love for the water paired with a commitment to succeed.
I strive to inspire, encourage confidence and cultivate a lifelong love for parent-child bonding through swimming.
I specialise in baby swimming, there is nothing that fills my cup more than watching the rebirth of a parent as they enter into the most magical journey of parenthood.
I am fuelled by the energy created within our classes, it’s one so unique that I’m confident won’t be found anywhere else!

Our mission is to foster a love of learning in your little ones, through creative lesson plans and prompts.

Over the years I have developed a profound passion for understanding people and the behaviours that shape us. I am fascinated by what drives us, how we grow, and the ways we can unlock our potential to be our best selves and in turn, the best parents.
This curiosity and commitment to learning have seamlessly aligned with my role in parent and baby classes, where I have the privilege of fostering connections, encouraging growth, and supporting families during these formative times. ♡

“A creative education has the power to catapult children into a lifetime of curiosity.”

— Liz, Founder of Little Comets Academy

Meet the Team

  • CARLIE

    ONE-TO-ONE SUPERVISOR/ INSTRUCTOR

    I'm Carlie, Steph's sister. I have 3 daughters called Heidi, Connie and Polly and a fiancé, Jason. Between the 5 of us life is like a circus.
    I have always worked with children and as a qualified teacher I have a passion for empowering children and assisting them to achieve their goals.
    I love my part at Aquastars. I assist with admin, bookings and finance as well as organising the 1:1 lessons for children aged 3 years+. You may also see me running Saturday baby classes or during the week when Steph is on holiday. From September I will be returning to Aquastars and be more of a familiar face as I was before. I will be taking on more baby classes and covering when needed during children's evening lesson
