Another option will be Happy Fish Swim School. Every new born baby has the potential to become a Water Baby. The sooner a child discovers the freedom of buoyancy and underwater swimming, the more relaxed and independent he or she will become. Neonatal Reflexes Babies are born with over 70 neonatal reflexes. They have the ability to react to stimulation with motor responses. As most neonatal reflexes weaken during the first 6 months, babies need proper guidance to master new patterns of voluntary movement in order to explore the water in a safe and fun environment.

Research shows early swimming also helps baby in growing sense of self-esteem, confidence and independence. It is also helpful in literacy and numeracy development.

Babies will learn how to enter water safely, hold their breath when they go underwater, turn and propel themselves to the side of the pool and finally get out of the pool safely.
