Babies Classes

 
Shawn's Swim School

 

 




BABIES INFORMATION 2008
(From 4 months to pre-schoolers.)

 



Babies and toddlers have two lessons per week and Mum or Dad accompany them in the water.
Monday and Wednesday 9:00am to 3.00pm
Tuesday and Thursday 9.00am to 12.30pm

These classes are designed to enable parents to play an essential role in teaching their children to swim under the guidance of teachers with many years experience at working with babies and toddlers in the water. Janet Mc Clure one of our baby teachers won Austswims’ Infant teacher of the year 2004.

There is a maximum of seven students in every class. The students in the water with their parents attend two half hour lessons a week. Experience has led Shawn and Janet to believe that anything less does not enable youngsters to progress to the levels of theirs and parents expectations. Some of our babies float safely by themselves at six months and are able to float fully clothed at nine months and swim backstroke and freestyle while attempting the basics of breaststroke and butterfly by two and a half years old. The emphasis is on developing water awareness and love of water activities while developing survival skills.

Drop in at lesson times and see for yourself the fun our babies have while developing skills you will not see anywhere else in children so young.

Fees:

1 Child $88 for 8 lessons
2nd Child $80 for 8 lessons
