Testimonials

An excellent, well thought out course! We have really enjoyed making new friends and spending time one to one with my child.
It was great learning the different holds and being able to use them outside of the course - A big Thank You!

- Sarah & Edward (aged 2 years, 4 months)

The improvement of my daughter in the water has been exceptional; she is more relaxed and a lot happier. The course was excellent, especially all the nursery rhymes - very child appropriate.

Swimming Benefits

Studies claim that babies who are introduced to water at an early age are happier, healthier, more alert with better eating and sleeping habits. There is a definite heightening of their senses. We like to reinforce this in a positive and pleasurable manner through techniques that we use.

All babies are born with a natural ’gag’ and ’mammalian dive ’ reflex. With simple progressive techniques this means that babies can happily hold
their breath underwater. Submersion will help develop babies natural ability to swim independently and experience the real pleasures of water.

How we teach

Our programs and techniques are designed to create an excellent foundation that will underpin your babies future in the water.

Each session is made up of word association, movement, songs and games combined with certain activities that are ’baby led’ i.e. asking the babies permission in order to do certain activities such as submersion.

The key element to our program is FUN conducted in a relaxed, calm, and stimulating environment.
