Deciding when to start infant swimming lessons in Brookline can be a daunting decision for many parents. So, when’s the best time to introduce your child to the water and the structure of formal swimming classes? In short: Sooner is better!
Children who are introduced to the water early in life tend to be more comfortable in the water. Additionally, they learn water safety skills more quickly than those who start classes later in life.
As children get older, it’s common to develop a fear of being in the water, and it becomes more difficult to introduce them to swimming and the structure of classes. Starting at infancy helps to lay the foundation for swim readiness and an appreciation of water safety throughout their life.
