Mommy and Me, Parent and Tots, and other similar names are used for these swim lessons where every child is accompanied with an adult.
Parent & Tot lessons can be quite intimidating for a number of reasons!
- Teaching adults may be completely new to the instructors.
- The swim instructors may know very little about infant-and-toddler development.
Best recommendation:
- Co-teach with an experienced U CAN Swim teacher before teaching on your own.
The primary goal for parented swim programs is to teach the parents to be comfortable in the water with their babies and young children, which in turn, makes their babies comfortable in the pool environment.
