Age Appropriate Infant Programs
Infant aquatics programs are specially tailored to support your child’s early development while laying the groundwork for future swimming skills. Instructors use age-appropriate activities and movement patterns to encourage body awareness, breath control and confidence in the water.
These lessons often include floating, kicking, turning and safe submersion, all introduced in a playful, sensory-rich environment. As infants grow stronger and more comfortable, their ability to follow basic instructions and respond to water-based cues naturally improves.
These programs support healthy physical and emotional development in and out of the water by creating a calm, familiar space for infants and their parents. Enquire now to secure a spot in our next program.
How do infant swim classes support development?
Infant swim classes improve coordination, strength and balance through gentle water movement. Activities support sensory integration, body awareness and spatial understanding. The consistent routine also promotes emotional development, focus and social interaction, all of which contribute to a well-rounded early learning experience in a calming setting.
Do infant swim classes help prevent fear of water?
Yes, early and positive exposure to water through structured classes can significantly reduce fear later in life. By gradually introducing water experiences in a calm and playful way, infants build trust and comfort, making them more likely to enjoy swimming as they grow.
What is the best age to start infant swim lessons?
Many experts recommend starting infant swim lessons from around 6 months. At this age, babies typically have better head control and are more responsive to instruction. Early introduction to water helps build safety awareness, coordination and confidence, setting a strong foundation for future swimming skills.
