Infants and Babies Swimming

Many of us have witnessed before an infant walking or crawling up to the waters edge with no fear of consequence. From the time they were born our little ones have been at home in an aqueous environment where they felt warm safe and most importantly secure.

The aim of our SwimMagic babies and infants programme is to nurture your children’s return to the aquatic environment through the introduction of teaching styles and techniques that will stimulate your precious little Swimmers. The infants and babies programme is divided into three levels based on age, and at each of our infant levels we aim to provide entry level classes so that every parent has the opportunity to develop confidence with their loved one in the water before the introduction of more advanced Swimming Skills.
