Parent & Tot (6 – 35 months)
In this program we introduce your child to
water, build their water confidence, and
educate you as the parent on pertinent
water safety. Our program consists of
singing songs and playing interactive
games, through fun group activities we will
appeal to your child’s curiosity and desire
for play, while we increase their comfort
in and under the water. In addition, we
will promote balance and movement; and
begin swim skill acquisition.
