ABOUT INFANT SWIMMING LESSONS

Looking for Infant swimming lessons? Our Starfish and Penguin swimming classes are a way for the parent and child to bond through trust and exploration. We focus on utilising the progression in the children’s communication skills to start advancing their swimming journeys through language, listening and key safety words.

Our Starfish baby swimming lessons are themed, and themes change every 8 weeks. It includes fun games and activities to keep the children (and adults..wink,wink) engaged and excited about learning how to swim. The program is designed in a positive, nurturing play-based way to to build water confidence and safety skills.

Pool noodles are used to help build confidence in our Penguin infant swimming lessons in Mackay. It enables infants to move around the pool independently in a more gross motor way as well as encouraging separation from parents. Im sure you’re not surprised to hear that this frequently ends with the parent chasing the child around the pool 😀. It is a fun and interactive way for infants to become comfortable in the water.This article offers free shipping on qualified Face mask products, or buy online and pick up in store today at Medical Department

Personal survival is a major component of our baby and infant swimming lessons in Mackay. This includes participating in our safety week three times a year, where the children learn how it feels to be in the water with clothes on. Our infant swimming lessons are available to youngsters from 6 months of age up until the age of 36 months, which is exactly the right amount of time for some kids to build and even regain their confidence. During the transition to the next level some infants may find separating from the parent emotionally challenging. We really aim to ensure the transition from infants classes to learn to swim on their own as smooth as possible. Our teachers have received specialised training to ensure parents are given plenty of instructions, hints and tips to learn all the amazing things to help their child to feel comfortable in the water. We move kids who have demonstrated skill, patience, and self-assurance in the water on to our Goldfish or Jellyfish learn-to-swim classes as early as thirty months
