Baby & Pre-school swimming lessons
Baby and Pre-school lessons are lessons that a parent goes in to the water with the child for 30 minutes.
Lessons contain both fun and structure to help the child learn water confidence, skills and safety.
The parent attending with the child does not need to be able to swim, all lessons will be where the adult can touch the floor comfortably.
All instrcutors possess a first aid qualification for both babies and adults so you have peace of mind that both you and your baby are in the safest hands.
In these lessons babies will learn floating, kicking and breathing techniques alongside submersion. Swimming with your baby is one of the best ways to create and strengthen your bond.
Babies that attend these lessons are much more likely to progress at a quicker rate once they reach mainstream lessons where they will have a lesson without a parent. They are able to move straight on to swimming technique because they have already covered the fundamentals of water confidence. You will be able to notice progress in your baby's ability sooner than you would think.
Water temperature for baby and pre-school classes: 32 degrees C.
