Parents could soon take their infants to a swimming pool specially designed for babies in Colliers Wood.

The Baby Swimming Company has applied to convert a vacant ground floor unit in Merton Abbey Mills, in Watermill Way, to a hydrotherapy pool for babies and toddlers.

The company has cited its use of a Heatstar reclamation unit that dehumidifies the pool area and cleans the air – to alleviate health concerns.

The company currently operates the Baby Swimming Centre in Trinity Road, Tooting.
