5 Steps to Successful Swimming Lessons

  1. Participate in a Parent and Tot or Leisure Swim before the first lessons. Orient your child to the changeroom, washrooms, and pool. Everyone likes to know what to expect. Have fun in the water and practice skills that your child already knows.⁠
  2. Swimming is like any other skill; it requires lots of patience, practice, and positive feedback. Children need to progress at their own rate. Talk with your child about appropriate lessons and have realistic expectations. Look upon swim lessons as a long-term progression, a time for enjoyment in a special environment!⁠
  3. Speak to your child’s instructor. Ask about progress and any areas that you could work on with your child during Parent and Tot or Leisure swims.⁠
  4. Look for the Deck Supervisor to help direct you to where you should be. They provide a link between you and the instructor. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask the Deck Supervisor, they will be happy to assist you with your swimming needs.⁠
  5. Please check your registration receipt carefully for lesson dates, times, and cancellations due to holidays and special events.
