Come swimming!! A


t Baby Swimmers they make the classes fun with lots of singing and skill related activities. Physically your baby will gain greater muscle control and have better hand-eye co-ordination, as well as strengthening their heart and lungs. Alertness is also improved through word association and responding to a cue such as reach, reach, reach, whilst they are looking at and reaching for toys.


At Baby Swimmers they use simple actions accompanied by nursery rhymes, such as Humpty Dumpty, where your baby will sit on the wall then lean forward to splash into the water, turn around and hold on. By repetitively using the command “hold on” when doing this activity, your baby will learn to do just that.


Holding your baby in water is a fantastic experience, as you bond with your baby through interaction and developing trust. They teach parents to take their baby under water from the very beginning and it’s fabulous sitting on the bottom of the pool and seeing your baby swim to you!
