Summer is here, and whether you are joining a pool, going on vacation, heading to the Shore, or sending your kids off to camp, chances are that swimming is part of your plans. While your kids are still young, mommy-and-me swimming (or daddy-and-me) classes for infants and toddlers are a great way to carve out some special time for you and your child to bond while teaching water safety to babies.
These swimming lessons usually run for children 6-36 months—although some start even younger—and involve a parent in the water along with the child. Singing, toys, and water play are often incorporated into these swimming lessons to help children feel comfortable in the water and have fun while learning valuable water safety skills.
If you are interested in signing your infant or toddler up, read on for a description of swim clubs that offer these mommy-and-me classes throughout New Jersey.
