6 months old is often a good age to begin teaching kids how to swim. As we continue to work with babies, we see them learning water-safe skills and they are very well prepared for classes without a parent by the time they are 3.
Absolutely! Parents are welcome to be in the pool area to watch. You are then handy to:
Assist your swimmer if they need to go to the restroom or if they would have an accident.
Be extra eyes watching the water.
Applaud new skills achieved. Your applause means so much to them.
However, it is never appropriate for a parent to become overly involved in the lesson or to try to instruct. That’s what you’ve hired us for, after all! We know that having you close by gives your children a sense of security. Sometimes for the very young, timid swimmer we will have the parent come and sit by the edge of the pool with the child near them. The child can watch the teacher interact with the other students and see that this is a safe place. They will quickly join in.
Occasionally we will ask a parent to leave the room if the child refuses to cooperate. This is usually due to a strong will and only done when nothing else works. 99% of the time, the child will cooperate when they realize that they cannot control the situation! The parent then comes back into the swim area and the child has fun with their class!
All group swim lessons are 30 minutes in length.
Use your best judgment, but if your child has flu-like symptoms such as a fever, vomiting or has stomach or digestion problems, you should not bring them to class. 1
