Gaby is the head swim coach of Swim A Life and runs her own swim school in Guildford called Rubba Duckies. 

​

She comes with 20 years of swim school experience and is a wonderful asset to the team. 

Gaby has a true passion for teaching, qualifying as a pre-school teacher and then moving on to swimming. For Gaby the younger someone learns to swim the better. She has been teaching swimming for 12 years, starting Rubba Duckies Swim School 11 years ago in South Africa before moving the business to England. Gaby's passion for the swimming industry and her understanding of how to make children comfortable in the water make her an expert in her field. She has a wealth of knowledge in both teaching and running a swim school that she can impart on our partners in Swim a Life.

Gaby has experienced the horror of "loosing" someone to drowning, and believes that anyone and everyone should be given an opportunity to learn to swim.
