Level restrictions for pool:

All Eaubaby levels from Ducklings through to Swim School. are taught at Moreton Fire College.

Duckling class: Our aim in the Duckling level is to give both you and your babies an introduction to our foundation level and to give you both the confidence in our programme and the ability to enjoy the many benefits of teaching your baby to swim.

We will follow the cues given by the babies as we want you both to be happy every step of the way.

Amongst many other skills we will pass onto you is; teaching your babies to breath hold, parents also perfect the ability to take their babies under the water and release them so they can watch them doing their first free swim. We will also teach you many other techniques; ‘holds’ and life-saving skills to practise with your baby. We will help you as parents become more confident so that you can take baby swimming by yourself and put into practise all that you have learnt.

You will learn 28 new exercises just in your first 10 week term!
