Description

Floaties classes for babies have a natural affinity with the water. Our programme gently nurtures this building confidence, both in the child and often the parent. Our programme allows our babies, even at this early age, to make choices about how and when they put their faces in the water and is a bonding experience like no other.

Splashers classes for babies who are 6 months old, they usually have enough strength and coordination to try more advanced activities. Splashers class are full of action, toys, songs and, of course, lots of ducks! The progression in this level is visible for all to see, with the littlest ones learning from their peers as well as their parents and our clever teachers. Watching a baby that can’t yet walk, initiate their own head down swim is a pretty special thing.

In our Kickers class, the children’s communication skills come into their own. Language and responding to keywords, counting and listening all play a part in this level of the programme. We use two short woggles to help them move around without adult support.

Little Dippers is the last level where children can enter directly. We take children between 30 months old and four years old and no previous swimming experience is necessary. Because of the way our teachers are trained to support children of all abilities, in Little Dippers we can accommodate those who are new to swimming as well as those who have worked their way through the Puddle Ducks programme.

Our 'beginners' level, Level 1 is often the first time that children enter the pool without their parent and our whole focus is on water confidence, basic water safety and the foundation skills for independent swimming. The ratios are small to enable a rapport to build between the teacher and children - and it quickly does. There is a maximum ratio of 4 children:1 teacher for this level. By Level 2, our children are swimming 5m and lifting their head to breathe. We now work with them to build their confidence further.
