PARENT/CHILD SWIM LESSONS
This is a great way to help your 6-month to 3-year-old child adjust to the water. You and your child get in the water for fun, game-filled, half-hour lessons. Positive reinforcement helps your child to enjoy the water, while never forcing them to submerge. This program is an excellent introduction to the water and to our Preschool Swim Lessons.
