Baby Swimming Classes
Im considering doing this with my 10 month old little boy. Has anyone had any experiences of these classes with their children?
Baby Swimming : What We Do
He was born in water and i have taken him swimming a few times, he has even been in the hotel pool on holiday in Turkey, but my motherly instincts make me feel a bit anxious as to whether i could actually bring myself to let him go underwater.

We took out son to baby swimming lessons from being 6 months old, they are really good. It gets them used to the water and they really don't mind being dunked at all. By 18 months my son was jumping in off the side and going under the water and then id turn him round underwater and bring him back up and he'd grab the rail. He's a right show off at jumping in now. Although we stopped the classes at 18 months as I didn't feel he was learning anything new as each week passed. Just take him to the swimming baths now, although we haven't been for a while. Need to pull my finger out.
I say go for it

I want him to be confident like that as im not much of a fish myself. I also dont want him to be one of those children who scream in the bath while trying to rinse their hair.
I havent contacted them yet so not sure about waiting lists, but does it make you feel more confident because you are part of a class or would you recommend i just try it myself next time we go swimming?

Sounds good! Ours is 4 months and LOVES baths but planning to get him to classes soon.
Wife and I are almost dolphins, such is our love of the sea, so hoping he'll be the same too!
