Learning through play in the water
Our baby lessons are all about gentle play. Using songs, toys and simple games, we help little ones explore the water in a fun, relaxed way. This builds confidence, supports their development and helps babies and parents feel happy and secure in the pool.
How our baby classes work
Class structure
Our baby sessions are calm, small-group classes in warm private pools. Each lesson follows a gentle routine so babies feel safe and parents know what to expect. We mix songs, games and simple water skills to build confidence at your baby’s pace.
Age ranges
We welcome babies from around 3 months (once your health visitor is happy) up to around 3 years. Little ones are grouped by age and stage, so you’ll be with families whose babies are at a similar level.
Learning goals
Across the term we follow the STA Starfish curriculum to focus on water confidence, safe holds, floating and gentle submersions when your baby is ready. Our aim is happy, relaxed babies and parents who feel confident handling their child in the water.
