YMCA Parent/Child Swim Lessons
Ages 6 Months to 3.5 Years
In the parent/child swim programs; parents accompany children in the water to learn safe, fun practices in and around the water.  Many songs, games, and helpful information are included.  Although we do work on beginning swimming movement, water adjustment and safety are the primary focus.  Parent/child programs provide a great opportunity for interaction with each other as well as other participants. 
One adult per child is required.
