Swimming Lessons provide a lifetime of adventure…a gift that lasts forever!
Learning to swim is so much more than a crucial life skill or being confident and safe in the water. It opens opportunities for life, from the fun of blowing bubbles as a baby or child to the adventures of catching big waves as an adult.

Baby Swim FAQ‘s
-
We operate a strict ‘double nappy’ policy for babies, toddlers and children that are not fully toilet trained. An approved snug-fitting neoprene swim nappy must be worn with a disposable or re-usable swim under-nappy underneath. These neoprene nappies are available on Amazon.co.uk : Splash About Baby and Toddler Improved Happy Nappy.
Without this your baby cannot attend the lesson.

For Babies :
It’ s common misconception that swimming lessons for babies under 6 month is not possible due to vaccinations. Swimming lessons are safe and possible and babies can start after birth, we recommend around 12 weeks and up when the mother feels comfortable after giving birth.
Babies have natural affinity with the water . Babies are born with amazing reflexes . Reflexes are defines as automatic responses to an outside stimulus .We all have an inborn “gag reflex” and the “mammalian dive reflex” but it is generally strongest in babies up to 6 months old , these enable them to hold their breath under water naturally ,which help us to provide a gentle introduction to submersions when babies are ready and choose to.

We do understand that your baby needs feeding. If its possible to time your baby’s feed around 30 minutes before class starts , that would be ideal. But if you feel your baby is hungry at any point before or during classes , we encourage you to meet their needs and feed them. Once your child is eating solid food , please don’t give them a big meal 1 hour before lesson.
