Infants

For Children Aged 6 Months to 3 Years

The Little Joeys Program is specially designed for infants and toddlers to begin their swimming journey in a safe, supportive and enjoyable environment. At this early stage, our focus is on introducing young children to the water while helping them develop essential water safety awareness and foundational swimming skills.

Through gentle guidance, play-based activities and positive encouragement, children learn to feel comfortable in the water while building trust with their instructor and parent. Each lesson encourages exploration, helping little swimmers develop confidence and independence at their own pace.
