Water Babies at Oak Grove College

Activity Description

Water confidence builds life confidence. That’s why introducing your little one to the water is one of the best starts you can give them in life.

Our leading swim programme has been developed to build water confidence and skills throughout your little one’s first five years. We work closely with Swim England, the national governing body for swimming, and we’ve woven their learn to swim framework through our programme. You’ll love nothing more than seeing their progression as your little one moves from fun floating, kicking and splashing to swimming independently.

And not only will your little one develop key aquatic skills, but we’ll also give them the knowledge to keep themselves safe. By the end of their journey, your child will be able to independently swim to the side and climb out to safety, wherever they are.

You can be safe in the knowledge that you’re learning from the best. Our teachers are the only ones who can hold Swim England’s Level 3 qualification, the highest that can be achieved. And they’re the most passionate around, there to guide you at every stroke of your little one’s journey. Because the more confident they are in the water, the more confident they’ll be out of it too. All the things that we teach in the water are structured to support their development; physically, intellectually and emotionally.

Focused time in the water also strengthens the bond between you and your baby, through that skin-to-skin contact in the comforting warmth of the water. It’s the perfect place to connect, away from the craziness of daily life.

Our classes are 30 minutes long and held in warm pools (some hydrothermal pools for very young babies), and are split in to age groups. You will join a small class with babies or children of similar age and ability.

So what are you waiting for? When they’re ready, we’re ready.
