Toddler Swimming Lessons in Norfolk Promote Water Safety & Fun

Toddler swimming lessons in Norfolk are the perfect way to introduce your child to the water at an early age. Learning the basics of water survival makes children safer throughout their lives. Much like learning to crawl before they walk, toddlers can begin learning foundational skills that promote swim readiness, water safety, and a lifetime of fun.

Swimming lessons are an important layer of protection against drowning. Participation in formal swimming lessons was associated with an 88% reduction in the risk of drowning, according to a recent case-control study. This is especially important for children ages 1–4, who have the highest drowning rates. Young children may not be ready to swim on their own, but they can learn lifesaving survival skills while playing and splashing in a safe and comfortable environment. These skills include finding the water’s surface, rolling over, and floating safely until help arrives. Drowning often happens quickly and quietly, so every second matters in an emergency.

As an added benefit, parent-assisted classes can strengthen the parent-child bond through a shared activity that’s enjoyed together for years to come. You’ll have a blast exploring the wonders of the water with your child while helping to improve their safety.
