Why Our Infant Classes Are Special!:
Baby swimming age classes have unique features to ensure your little one gets the right start.
The water is always warm. Infants can quickly become chilled, so the water must be about 90 degrees to keep them safe. Generally, if you think the water is a comfortable temperature for you as soon as you get in the pool, it’s probably an excellent temperature for your baby.
We have small class sizes. We limit the infant classes to six children. Small class sizes ensure our teachers can supervise all the babies and answer all the parents’ questions.
Classes are short. Our infant classes last about 30 minutes. Short courses are enough time for the babies to acclimate to the water, but they are not long enough for them to start getting tired and grumpy.
Pengu Swim Center enrolls kids as young as six months and older in specifically designed baby swimming lessons. Our swimming instructors create tailor-made swim classes to meet the needs of each child and age group.
