Growing up Melinda participated in Club Swimming and Surf Life Saving. Settling with her family in Yamba in 2010, Melinda is mother of two (both water babies who are now early tween/teens). Now she finds it very rewarding to be giving back to the activities that gave her so much enjoyment in her youth. Melinda is a volunteer with Yamba SLSC, providing water safety and coaching our local Nippers as her own children move through the program. This experience sparked her desire to become a qualified learn to swim teacher. Mel understands what a difference getting the best start in the water makes for our little ones. Not just for safety but for setting up the foundations to a life long journey enjoying time in and around the water. Melinda has a true passion for seeing kids develop water safety and swimming skills and having fun whilst doing it! She feels honoured to be working in this industry and to be part of the Little Fish team.
