BABIES LEVEL 2

Babies with some experience and older beginners

Our level 2 babies program represents the second stage of learning for both parents and children. We introduce more advanced techniques that focus on both fun and safety.

Babies continue to develop the skills learned in level 1. Practice of core skills continues while the focus in level 2 is on rotations, beginning to release the children and safety skills.   Swimmers are now more water confident and keen to participate and interact with the other swimmers so more group activities are planned in line with the children’s level of development.

New, more advanced holds are used and looser support is encouraged so as to allow each child to better enjoy and begin to understand how their body and water interact.

As adults and babies practice their skills, the adults very gradually continue to reduce their support, both above and below the water.  Some babies may begin to kick their way up to the surface of the water unaided.  

One parent per child is required in the water for babies, and toddlers.
