Parent and Child Splash Class (12-18 mo)

Service Description

Our Parent & Child Splash Class is designed to introduce infants and toddlers to the water in a safe, supportive, and engaging environment. This class is ideal for children ages 12 months to 18 months, accompanied by a parent or guardian in the water. Each lesson runs 30 minutes, with 20 minutes of instruction and 10 minutes of free play. Lessons will be held every Tuesday from August 19th-October 14th (no lessons the week of September 16th). Through guided instruction, playful songs, and age-appropriate activities, we help children become comfortable in the water while teaching foundational swim and water safety skills. Skills introduced include water acclimation, floating with support, gentle submersions, and basic kicking and arm movements. The presence of a caregiver provides emotional reassurance and encourages bonding through shared experiences. No prior swim experience is required. At Little Otter Aquatics we ensure a low-pressure environment that prioritizes safety, comfort, and fun while laying the groundwork for independent swimming in future classes.
