Billabong Babies are 3 months old to 2 ½ to 3 years old. A parent or a caregiver is in the water with the child enjoying the experience and bonding with them. Children will develop their skills at their own pace. As the child’s comfort level, motor skills and self-esteem progresses so does the child’s level of competency. Many babies become very confident and self-sufficient in the water. The best part of all is that they all develop a love for the water and are on their way to a healthy lifestyle!! The goals of the class are to instil water confidence, independence and love for the water. Activities include songs, games, running on the mat, submerging, and swimming to and from the platform.
