Welcome to Little Splashers

Lessons that teach your baby to swim…

Little Splashers specialise in infant aquatic swimming courses for babies and toddlers from two months to four years.

Lessons are developed around a mixture of gentle yoga moves, exciting play activities and songs to make swimming fun. You will find the ‘Little Splasher’ course different from traditional swimming lessons, with more emphasis on teaching you how to hold and move your baby through the water to stimulate early reflexes.

There are so many health benefits to baby swimming and our gentle approach allows babies to achieve a sense of freedom in the water, allowing them to explore their natural swimming abilities at their own pace. The water gives them a weightless environment to move their muscles without restriction. This means that they can develop more muscle tone and strength and can exercise joints making them more flexible.

Our baby swimming lessons are non-competitive, and designed to enhance the bond between baby and parent. Spending quality one to one time with total focus on each other in the pool, having fun and relaxing together is extremely beneficial to baby and adult and can help the bonding process. Many moves and techniques used promote skin to skin contact, closeness, trust and touch.

Throughout the course, you will learn above and below the water techniques as well as invaluable safety skills. As each course progresses you will build your babies confidence and learn new ways to swim with your baby and work towards independent swimming at a very young age.

Classes are in small groups with parent and child in the water at the same time. The focus is on making friends, having fun as well as relaxing and bonding with your baby. It doesn't matter if you are not a good swimmer yourself, in fact it may increase your confidence. Give your child the ‘love’ of water, you can join our lessons at any stage.

We look forward to seeing you soon.
