general information
Our classes for babies allow water familiarisation for infants and babies from 3–24 months with one accompanying adult.
In circumstances where a parent/carer is unable to enter the water, it may be possible with prior arrangement for an extra teacher to facilitate instead.
Lessons are ongoing with small classes of no more than 5 carers and babies.
Classes are scheduled according to demand and arranged according to age and/or ability.
Water temperature of 32°C.
Our pool water in Chiswick is sanitised by an Ultraviolet (UV) light system and is therefore much kinder to babies skin. We are planning this same system for our Chalfont St. Giles pool too.
Lessons are structured (not only play), to include a series of exercises that stimulate the babies’ own innate swimming abilities. With constant encouragement and under vigilant supervision, they soon begin to swim independently.
