Baby Swim Lessons in Gainesville

Baby swim lessons at SwimTec are private parent and infant sessions for babies from 6 months to 3 years, taught in SwimTec’s indoor, heated Gainesville pool. A caregiver stays in the water the whole time while the instructor shows supportive holds and simple pool routines, and the baby practices water comfort, breath control and early kicking.

“I love this place! Way more than a “learn to swim” business. The curriculum sets anyone up to be a thorough swimmer by the end. Couldn’t recommend more - for babies and adults alike.”
