Share in your baby's delight at the joys of swimming from birth. A precious time for the two of you, the exhilarating freedom they'll experience right from the start will instill a lifetime's water confidence.

Swimming is great for all aspects of your baby's physical, mental and emotional development, making them fitter, stronger and more alert. Just as important, it's a really sociable activity - offering the two of you the perfect opportunity to make new friends and have fun.

Water Babies offers a uniquely structured one year course, with a carefully designed lesson plan for each of the 40 weeks. These build upon clear aims and objectives that will see your child confidently swimming both above and below the water's surface from around the age of two.
