Learn to Swim for Babies
|
Maximum of 6 children per half hour session. Lessons are suitable for babies from six (6) months (when their immune system has developed) and upwards to approximately 2.5 – 3 years of age. Parents/carers are taught the correct technique for introducing baby to water. With the use of fun activities and games, we aim to provide a feeling of comfort and safety in the water. These lessons are invaluable, because if the skills are practiced regularly, they can certainly help to save a child’s life. Remember, every child is different and should be encouraged at their own pace. |

WATER SAFETY / LEARN TO SWIM CLASSES. Maximum of 4 children per half hour session After the child is happy and confident in the water through activities and games, we introduce the teaching of water safety. Those skills include:
- Face in water
- Bubbles
- Kick and pull (dog paddle)
- Front and back floats
- Falling in and back to the side safely
- Retrieving objects from the bottom of the pool.
Only when a child can confidently dog paddle across the pool without panic, (ie. bubbles in – up for breath) do we commence the art of the freestyle stroke and breathing. It is vital that a child has good flotation skills and the legs do not sink at the back while dog paddling, before commencing overarm. |
