Baby Swimming Lessons for Under One's
Jellyfish
We have two Jellyfish levels, our Junior Jellyfish is for babies 4 months to 8 months and Senior Jellyfish for babies 1 year and under. These classes usually run on a Sunday morning.
​
For most swimmers the Jellyfish level will be their first introduction into a swimming pool environment. Our instructors take a lot of care in providing a safe and supportive atmosphere for both the baby and the caregiver.
​
We believe that all babies will tackle new challenges at their own pace and so provide a suitable scale of options for every new skill with no pressure.
Class Details
Classes in the Jellyfish level are 30mins long and one caregiver is in the water with their baby at all times.
The first 5 minutes of the lesson are unstructured and allow for parents and babies to slowly become acclimatised in the water.
Wherever possible we recommend that the same caregiver attends all lessons.
Class Content
This a fun and engaging level full of songs and splashing and is designed to foster a love of the water and create a bonding experience for you and your baby.
In this level you will build towards taking and releasing your baby underwater so that they will become familiar with basic cues and instructions.
