The Classes
PARENTS AND BABIES.....up to 8 parents and babies per group...
Monday through to Saturday mornings.
These classes are for babies and toddlers between 4 months and 3.5 years old.
The programme shows you, as parents, how to teach your baby to have water confidence and awareness at an early age. When the age of 3.5 years is reached, children are usually independent enough to participate in a more formal teaching programme and are ready to learn swimming skills and be fully confident.
Please remember that all children learn at their own speed, so do not push them further than they are ready and able to go as this causes loss of confidence.
