| 30 years specialising in childrens water safety! |
Can toddlers really swim? Yes, toddlers can learn to swim! Take a look at two year old Mitchell in this footage. Mitchel's ability comes from spending lots of time in the water. The key for young children to gain this type of confidence comes from having at least two or more happy swims each week. As Mitchels motor development and understanding mature his movements will become more refined. For now his skill and level of safety are far beyond his non swimming peers. The Dipadees toddler program includes lots of water safety activities especially designed to develop little swimmers just like Mitchell. Concentrating, remembering and learning is easier when you're enjoying yourself. That's why the Dipadees program has been especially designed to maximize your child's enjoyment and ability to learn. Learning to swim should be a pleasant experience and one that builds your chid's confidence and self esteem! Importantly, your child will be warm and can maintain progress swimming year round in our heated, enclosed pool. Plus there's great sun protection for delicate skin. You can start or finish lessons at any time during the term, however we highly recommend that children continue with lessons year round. |

| It's a very safety conscious program |
Skills and activities in the Dipadees program have been designed to help your child become safer and stronger in the water. Children in our beginner program learn to enjoy the water and to master basic safety skills, for example, learning how to tread water and to swim safely back to the side if they fall in. More confident children are taught how to move through the water with ease using correct stroke technique. |
| Here's why comfort matters |
It is almost impossible to concentrate and learn if you're uncomfortable, shivering and feeling miserable. That is why our pools are heated to a comfortable temperature.
All Dipadees programs are indoors out of the wind and the weather. We like to feel comfortable and we know you do too! Most of all we know that to become a stronger, safer swimmer your child needs year-round time in the water. This is easy to achieve in the comfort of a Dipadees facility. |
| Learning to swim is a great way to have special bonding time with your child |
Learning to swim is a fantastic time for bonding. There are so many opportunities to celebrate and encourage your child to master this new and exciting environment. By giving your child lots of encouragement, you help to build their social skills and self esteem. This also sets the foundation for a lifelong, happy, trusting and successful relationship together. |
