The important thing for pre- school children is to play. It is through play that their confidence in the water will grow. They can enter the water as soon as they have had all their injections. Parent & Kids sessions help you to develop a relationship with your baby and to build up trust. Enjoy 30 minutes of un-pressured relaxation and set the foundations for a lifetime of aquatic fun. 

We do not recommend that you try to teach your child to swim at this stage. We only teach three year olds to swim in exceptional circumstances i.e. if they have access to a pool at home.

This is because young children's memories are not yet fully developed. A child may learn through the suggestion and encouragement of an instructor but this is no guarantee that they would remember what to do in their absence.

Also a degree of strength is required to swim and their muscles may not be adequately developed.

As it is not a formal lesson tuition is not provided however our staff are available to offer advice on what to do.

We have lots of toys and swimming aids available and play music to help create  the right atmosphere.      

It is also a social event and an opportunity for new mums to meet new friends exchange views and support.
