School Effect
01For skinship between parent and child
In infancy and early childhood, the relationship with parents is said to play an important role. Playing and moving with your child in the water is a fun way to develop skin-to-skin contact, deepen trust, and promote the baby's physical and mental growth and development.
02Can get used to the water.
Babies have little fear of water, so by familiarizing them with water at this age, they will be less afraid of it when they are older. Starting early will help ensure a smooth transition to swimming school.
03Promotes nerve and muscle development
Exercise in the water is a full-body workout with far more variation in movement than on land, allowing for the amount of exercise necessary for physical growth in a shorter period of time. By using the buoyancy of water to move the arms and legs freely, and by practicing this repeatedly, blood circulation is stimulated and nerve and muscle development is promoted.
The nervous system is 80% developed from birth to age 5 and almost 100% at age 12.
Exercise is essential from infancy to childhood because this is an important period of rapid neural development and the formation of neural circuits.
Voice
Ms. A.1 year and 1 month old girl mom
Since I started going to baby swimming, I am less likely to catch colds and I miss school less often.
It also helps that they take a good nap after a lot of fun at the pool.
Ms. B.1 year and 8 month old girl mom
By splashing a lot of water in the pool and practicing up-piping, I am no longer afraid to shower at home, and bath time has become easier.
On holidays, my dad joins the school with me, so it is a good opportunity for me to communicate with him.
Ms. C.1 year and 9 month old boy mom
I started going because I thought it would be good exercise for me and my children.
At first, she cried and had a hard time getting into the pool, but now she loves the water and looks forward to her weekly school time.
Chaperoning parents can of course be dads, too! Enjoy skin-to-skin time in the pool with your children!

- Students can be enrolled from the month they turn 6 months old until the month they turn 3 years old.
- Is it safe if the mother is pregnant?

- Can parents/guardians participate if they cannot swim?
- Parents will be responsible for supporting their child's movement. No previous swimming experience is necessary.

- You do not have to be the child's father, grandparent, or other mother if you are the child's parent or guardian.
