Baby Lessons

When you have a baby, one of the things that many parents want to do is arrange private swimming lessons at home, so that their child can grow to be confident and safe in the water. Rather than signing them up for overcrowded classes that only get them a few minutes of personalised support in a noisy pool, why not arrange private baby swimming lessons instead?

At-Home Baby Swimming Lessons

When you want to book a swimming instructor for your baby, you may find yourself wondering how to choose the best provider. Firstly, it’s essential that you look for someone who has the skills and instructor qualifications needed to provide exceptional service. Next, you need to find out if they have experience in teaching babies how to swim.

Finally, you need to make sure they are committed to providing the very best service at every stage of the journey. At Young Fins Swimming, these three guiding principles are what sets us apart from the crowd and make us the leading provider of private swim lessons for babies in Central London.

How Our Home Visit Private Swimming Lessons in Central London Work

Once you have decided that you want to book your baby in for private swimming lessons, your next step will be to find out how the programme on offer works. At Young Fins Swimming, we offer three different levels of swimming support for babies, which include:

Stage One – for ages 6 – 12 months
Stage Two – for ages 1 – 2 years
Stage Three – for ages 2 – 3 years

We recommend that you start your baby’s swimming lessons at 6 months, as it offers health benefits and supports healthy development for your baby. The other great thing about baby and toddler swimming lessons is that the feel of the after and the movements they undertake work in harmony to create a calming, sensory experience that will help them grow to love the water.

Once they have learned the basics and are developing in age, we will then move on to skills such as underwater swimming and other fun activities that they will adore! What’s even better is that if you have a pool at home, teaching your baby water safety from a young age will help to avoid issues in the future.

Private Group Baby Swimming Lessons

We provide baby lessons tailored for children up to the age of 3. Our baby group lessons have a maximum of 4 babies per class, with parents in the water alongside each child. However, this doesn’t mean that families cannot opt for a semi-private lesson with a 2:1 ratio or a private lesson with a 1:1 ratio. When it comes to children under 2 years old, we believe there are significant advantages for babies to participate in group lessons rather than opting for a 2:1 or 1:1 setting.

My daughter Olivia just completed her first swimming crash course with Luis, and I couldn’t be more pleased! It is incredible how she has progressed in such a short time and how her skills and confidence in the water have improved. Luis is a fantastic teacher, always kind and with a warm smile on his face, but also firm and determined when needed. I could not recommend him more! We will definitely try to get a regular weekly lesson with him.

Silvia, Olivia’s Mother

Elia started swimming when he was 5 months old, for only one term before lockdown happened. He was next back in the pool, aged 22 months and fearful of the water. Just yesterday, and less than two terms later, aged 2 years and 4 months, Elia spontaneously graduated from baby swim class. He was in the pool on his own with Luis. Elia was so proud to be doing self-submersion, starfish float, pencil glide and the rocket. He now loves to swim.

Amy, Elia’s mother

Luis is a fabulous teacher! Two of my children have been taking lessons with him, and they adore him and are showing great progress. We are very happy.

Lauren, Heidi Rose’s Mother

Excellent teacher! Great skills used with my two little kids. Thank you very much for your great work and all that love you put into your lessons! X Thank you, Luis, for looking after my boys so wonderfully. They love your lessons.
