Swimming with your toddler is healthy, rewarding and fun!

Our lessons are designed to be fun and rewarding, in an enjoyable and controlled environment.

The toddlers do not wear floatation aides (armbands or body floats), and therefore a parent or carer is in the pool with the child. The depth of the pool is suitable for the adult to stand comfortably whilst holding the toddler.

Toys such as balls, fish and 'spaceships' are used to encourage movement in the water. Animal shaped floats, floating mats and woggles are used to build confidence and independant swimming. The lessons are based on you both having fun whilst learning.
