Before Your Lesson

Before your first lesson, it's worth taking a few moments to plan ahead to ensure both you and your child have a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Ask yourself the following questions before booking or attending:

How long will it take to travel to the pool, and what's the best way to get there?
Have you allowed enough time to get yourself and your child changed before and after the lesson?
Which lesson time works best around your child's feeding and nap routine?
Is there a comfortable space at the pool or leisure centre where you can feed or settle your child after the session?
A little preparation can help make your swimming experience as enjoyable and stress-free as possible.

Lesson Information

Once you've met your instructor, it's time to head into the pool with your little one. Your instructor will guide you into a comfortable position in the water, helping you stay at your child's eye level to create a reassuring and engaging experience.

Throughout the session, your instructor will demonstrate how to hold and support your child safely in the water, introducing a range of fun activities that help build water confidence and develop key swimming skills.

At the end of each lesson, you may be given simple activities to practise at bath time, helping to reinforce what your child has learned and continue building their confidence between sessions.

After Your Lesson

Once your lesson has finished, a little preparation can help keep your child comfortable and make the most of their swimming journey.

Have a warm, dry towel ready for your child as soon as they leave the pool.
Swimming can be tiring, so it's a good idea to bring a feed or healthy snack for after the lesson, along with a drink if needed.
Make time for family swims outside of lessons. Unstructured play in the water gives children the chance to practise their skills, build confidence, and simply enjoy swimming at their own pace in a relaxed environment.
