AQUABABES NI - PROMOTING SAFE, HAPPY SWIMMING FOR FAMILIES

Hello and welcome to AquababesNI (Mid and East Antrim site), leading experts in infant and pre-school swimming in Northern Ireland.

Our Baby, Toddler and Young Child programmes are designed so that you are encouraged to take an active part in your child's earliest learn to swim experience. It is a wonderful opportunity to bond and learn from each other in a supportive and playful environment. Swimming with your baby strengthens your parent-child relationship and through early contact with other babies of the same age, it further supports your child’s development particularly with regards personality and social and motor skills. Your child's positive attitude to water and the extent of his familiarity with it will form the basis for his enjoyment and overall perception of the water for years to come. Laying the foundation for your child’s interest in learning to swim when he is older, complies with the basic principle of teaching swimming – to initiate the learning process by getting used to and coping with the water step by step.

Our classes are designed to encourage independent swimming in children as young as 2 and 3 years of age.

Though we can't quite guarantee a gold medal at the Olympics or world class swimmers, with our careful, expert guidance, we can offer you a unique experience of fun and constructive learning that we hope will lead to many years of happy family swimming together.
