Baby and Toddler

Why water confidence & swimming skills are good for your baby....

Water provides a liberating environment for babies and infants, who may be mobility dependent on land, but acquire a new independence & freedom in the pool. Water also holds a natural curiosity for babies & infants – you will find that your child will be drawn to it and fascinated by the swirling clarity and rippling movements. Therefore as well as the fun of swimming, we focus on water safety and life saving techniques from as young as 6 months old. Our classes aim towards building their confidence, and teaching them skills that may just save their life in an emergency aquatic situation.

Our Baby and Toddler program caters for children from approx 5 months to 3 years. A parent or caregiver must accompany the child in the water for these 30 minute classes. Once children turn 3, they are eligible to go into our preschool program.
