Parent & Tot
(4 months-3 years)
Parents spend quality time with their child while having fun learning and socializing with others. Through structured in-water interaction between parent and child, our Parent & Toddler program stresses the importance of play in developing water-positive attitudes and skills. We provide “Water Smart” tips on keeping children safe in an aquatic setting. (30-minute lesson)
Preschool A-E
(3-5 years)
The preschool program gives children a head start on learning to swim. Preschool levels develop an appreciation and healthy respect for the water before these kids get in too deep. In five preschool levels, we work to ensure 3 to 5-year-old children become comfortable in the water and have fun acquiring and developing a foundation of water skills. We incorporate Water Smart education at each level. (30-minute lesson)

Our swimmer program makes sure children learn how to swim before they get in too deep. Swimmer progressions accommodate 5-12 years old children and youth including absolute beginners as well as swimmers who want to build on the basics. We stress lots of in-water practice to develop solid swimming strokes and skills. We incorporate Water Smart education at all levels. (45-minute lesson)
