What happens in a Duckling baby swimming lesson?

  • Lots of fun songs to make learn to swim fun for you and your baby
  • Building confidence, accepting and feeling comfortable in the water is what Ducklings baby swimming lessons are all about
  • Gentle water familiarisation and a great bonding experience
  • Learning breath control techniques and preparing to submerge your swimming baby when you are both ready
  • Building on your baby’s strong buoyancy skills to independent floating with your help
  • As your baby grows and begins to become more mobile, we teach kicking and paddling skills too!
What you and your baby learn at JUMP! can be transferred to the bath and pool too! Our aim for the Ducklings swimming level is for your baby to move into the Ducks class when they turn 9 months old, our advanced baby swimming program. By this time, we will have your baby comfortably submerging to a teacher and kicking and reaching.
