Our Wrigglers classes are designed for our youngest swimmers, from just 6 weeks old to 4 months.

This is often a baby’s first swim experience, and we take it slow and gentle. Sessions focus on helping your baby feel comfortable in a new, sensory-rich environment while giving you time to relax and bond with your little one.

By the end of the term, you should be able to:

  • Safely enter the pool with baby
  • Hold baby safely in a safety hold, cradle hold, forward facing swim position
  • Show baby how to blow bubbles
  • Underwater peek-a-boo so baby can watch and learn from parent
  • Cheek dips
  • Home and away movements through the water
  • Introduction to gentle submersion
  • Introduction to reaching out
  • Introduction to holding on and safety techniques
  • Back floating & tummy time
  • Lots of exploration & time with baby
  • Safe exit from the pool
