Baby Swimming Lessons in Virginia Beach Promote A Lifetime of Safety

Babies and instructors in pool during baby swimming lessons in Virginia Beach

Baby swimming lessons in Virginia Beach are a safety imperative! According to the CDC, there are approximately 3,536 drowning-related deaths annually, with one in five being children 14 years of age or young. Fortunately, most drownings are preventable. For babies specifically, recent studies suggest that water survival skills training can help reduce drowning risks, in part, by simply getting newborn children comfortable in the water. Much like children learning to crawl before they walk, in the pool, they must learn to roll over and float before learning to swim safely. Floating is a foundational swimming skill that babies can learn to roll onto their back and rest at the water’s surface in the event of an emergency!

About our Baby Swimming Lessons in Virginia Beach

Baby swimming lessons at British Swim School of Greater Virginia Beach begin teaching newborn children the water survival skills necessary to be safe in and around the water. Our highly trained instructors are uniquely qualified to introduce babies to the water for the very first time, with warm indoor pools that are perfect for the littlest of learners. Our beginner-level classes are centered around a structured program of songs, games, and fun! And in addition to being enjoyable and informative for the little one, our parent-assisted classes also give the caregiver pointers on how to teach water safety to their kids outside of our lessons. A true win-win for entire family!

Don’t delay: Babies can begin learning water acclimation and beginner water survival skills as early as 3 months old! Here’s an overview of the skills taught in our baby swimming lessons:

  • Water acclimation
  • Full gentle submersion
  • Assisted (or independent) back float
  • Jump in, rollover and float independently
  • Independence from parent(s)
  • And more!

Once your child has mastered the skills of our beginner-level programs, they can proceed to our advanced water survival and stroke development programs!
