Many parents wonder when to sign up for toddler swimming lessons in Lafayette. If your child seems ready for water play and splashing, it’s probably the right time. Every child is different, but we encourage parents to teach their children water survival and swim readiness skills as early as possible. Formal swimming lessons between ages 1 and 4 can reduce the risk of drowning by 88%, according to a recent case-control study.
Most kids under the age of 4 aren’t ready to swim on their own, but they can begin acclimating to the water and learning lifesaving survival skills. It’s important to know how to navigate in the water, roll over, and float safely at the water’s surface. These skills build a foundation for future lessons. More importantly, they prepare children to survive an accidental fall into the water. Every second counts in a water-based emergency.
It’s never too early to get your child in the water. Look for parent-and-child programs with trained professionals and a curriculum-based approach. You’ll love splashing around with your child while learning to be safe.
Our Approach to Toddler Swimming Lessons in Lafayette
Our mission is clear: teaching individuals of all ages and abilities to become stronger, safer swimmers. With nearly 40 years of experience behind our teaching methodologies, British Swim School is the perfect place for toddlers to learn. Our program introduces children to the water for the first time and develops water survival skills through a structured program of songs, games, and fun.

Working together, we’ll introduce your little learner to water safety and survival skills that will be used throughout the entire curriculum-based program.
