At OtterSwim Aquatic, we offer an improved opportunity for babies and children to learn the fundamentals of swimming in a pristine and secluded indoor facility. Our facility provides warm water, intimate class sizes, and first-rate swimming lessons designed to meet your child's specific needs. In addition to imparting this essential life skill, we also host events like the Water Ninja Challenge, Otterlympic, and the "Your Effort Helps" Fundraising Swim to foster self-confidence, sportsmanship, and social responsibility.
Our primary focus at OtterSwim Aquatic is on the comprehensive development of children, encompassing their physical, mental, and social growth. This approach embodies the ideal method for teaching swimming classes. Enrolling your children in swimming school provides them with essential water safety skills, a greater appreciation for water activities, and accelerates their physical and mental development. At OtterSwim, our positive learning environment encourages children to develop increased confidence. Here are some additional benefits of learning to swim:
Encourages Physical Activity - Swimming is an excellent outlet for children to burn off excess energy while engaging in physical activity that is both enjoyable and rewarding.
Maintains Swimming Skills - Children, particularly younger ones, often experience a decline in their swimming abilities if they go extended periods without lessons. Therefore, it is important to keep them swimming to ensure they maintain their progress in swimming techniques.
Improves Sensory and Cognitive Functioning - While swimming, babies move their arms and kick their legs, allowing them to register the tactile sensation of water and its resistance, resulting in improved overall motor skills. Additionally, swimming provides a unique social experience that further stimulates cognitive function.
Reduces Screen Time - Screen time is a pressing concern in modern parenting, and excessive usage can hinder active play, which is essential to your child's development. Swimming lessons, along with the time spent changing before and after the activity, are an excellent way to reduce screen time while keeping your child engaged and active.
Mothers are rekindling their appreciation for introducing their babies aged 3 to 36 months to water activities. OtterSwim offers the ideal setting for babies to learn how to swim! We teach the basics of assisted back float and submersion at this level. In our parent and baby swim classes, you can expect plenty of singing and splashing as your child joyfully and independently explores the aquatic environment.
As a caring parent, the safety and security of your baby during swimming classes is of utmost importance to you. At our swimming facility, we understand your concerns and take every necessary step to ensure a safe and enjoyable learning environment for your child. Our instructors are carefully selected not only for their professional expertise and skills but also for their character and warm, fun-loving personalities.
During your baby's swimming lessons, our instructors remain highly attentive and vigilant, ensuring that your little one is in safe hands at all times. As a parent, you can stay by your baby's side and witness their rapid progress as they enjoy gentle and stimulating instruction in the water. We guarantee that your baby's swimming lessons will be both comfortable and rewarding, providing a delightful experience for both you and your child.
Infants begin their lifelong swimming journey with a blend of singing, games, and confidence-boosting activities. The main emphasis is on building water confidence, having fun, and establishing early muscle memory for future formal swimming lessons. In addition, participating in the pool with your child promotes a strong connection between you and your baby, leading to a great bonding experience. Cherish these moments with your little ones and create lifelong memories!
At OtterSwim, you can initiate your baby's lifelong journey in water as early as three months. Our Level 1 program for early education is tailored to give your little one a head start in swimming while equipping you with the necessary abilities and assurance to foster your baby's physical, social, and emotional growth in aquatic settings. Our program promises to instill confidence in your baby, enabling them to submerge and hold their breath on command while being cheerful and self-assured.
Babies have the ability to perceive your body language and detect even subtle changes in it. Therefore, it is advisable to remain calm, relaxed and show enthusiasm by wearing a cheerful smile when teaching your little one to swim. It won't take long for your child to start mimicking your actions in the water.
It's important to bear in mind that each child is unique and will have varying abilities when it comes to swimming. So, don't expect your baby to be able to submerge or swim straight away after being introduced to water. Consistent practice over time is crucial, and it's best not to set overly ambitious goals or pressure your child to achieve short-term results. Instead, focus on long-term progress. If your child accidentally swallows water during the lesson, cough together and gently pat their back. Offer praise for their effort and continue to encourage them. This will help children not only learn but also develop a love for swimming.
