Moms if you don't already, you should definitely find a goldfish swim school nearby for you and your little one. they start your babies at 4 months old (my son started at 8 months and just completed week 2) to teach them how to hold their breath underwater and flip over if they were to ever fall into a pool. they also teach them to pull themselves out! it is amazing and a great way to bond with your baby. it's 20/ week for 30min classes but it's amazing!!!
lol, my 2 year old is like that, a week before I had my rcs we stayed at a hotel and everybody tried to hold onto her and pass her around but she didn't want nobody a help...then a week after I had my baby, she went to her cousins birthday pool party and her grandma and aunt's told me that she took off her life vest...ran around the pool stairs and tried to jump straight in the pool...luckily she was caught before she hit the water. Ain't no doubt in my mind that my kids need and would love this. I don't fear them drowning with me around bc I know how to swim but I worry when others have them. Think my 2nd will agree to this class bc he reads articles about infants swimming independently as long as their mother doesn't panic they won't drown...so we will see. I'm excited!
my son has no fear, to the point he has dunked himself underwater and thrown himself out of the chair we use in the tub, that's when I decided we needed to take him! @ariliyahzihmommy3
it'll be great! mini 1 and 2 you're in the pool with them, your other two will probably be in beginner which means you get to sit outside the glass wall and watch. If you check their website they have videos and stuff about what they teach, they also have an instagram. it will be the best and safest decision ever to do for your kids :) @ariliyahzihmommy3
Thank you so much for sharing this, it's def something ima do with my 3 mermaids once my baby mermaid turns 4 mos in Nov.😀
no matter what age it's $20/ week. if everyone was closer I could send out referral cards and you'd get one free lesson. it's honestly worth the cost though I'll take a picture here in a sec of the sheet they gave me for classes, age range, and some of what they learn @ariliyahzihmommy3
I was taught to swim at toddler age maybe younger, I definitely want all my girls to learn since they love water.
@mommyofacountryboy, that really sucks! I wonder if there's anything common to it near you?
Idk Iv been looking since March main one is YMCA for $50 for a month or privet lessons for $250+ for one lesson
