My two year old daughter Ava has been learning to swim with Swim Tots since she was 9 months old.  We attend the Monday am session with Helen at Beckwith Pool and she absolutely loves it! The location is extremely convenient, parking is easy and the facilities are clean and the pool warm.

I can’t stress enough how beneficial attending swim tots has been to Ava.  I have an older daughter of 6 who can swim but still not with great confidence and who dislikes water in her face which means showering & hair washing can be a chore.  Ava on the other hand LOVES the water.  The lessons have given her great confidence and she would shower ten times a day if she had the chance.  The classes are really fun and friendly yet teach the babies & toddlers the necessary skills for survival in the water and the basics to get them swimming at an early age.  I only wish I knew about swim tots when my older daughter was younger!
