Supervise your child in the locker rooms. There are two family changing rooms available for your convenience.
Tie back your child’s long hair before their lesson.
Provide your child with goggles for Preschool Aquatics Level 3 and Learn to Swim Levels 2 and higher (for beginning levels students should not use goggles as they are learning to open their eyes underwater and be comfortable in the water without reliance on equipment).
Watch your child’s lesson from the seated areas on the perimeter of the pool deck. Often watching your child in close proximity will distract your child.
Support your child by praising his or her progress.
Understand that children develop swimming skills at different rates. Avoid putting pressure on achievement; encourage your child to enjoy swim lessons and take pride in personal success.
If you have any questions or concerns, please talk to the instructor or front desk staff.
