Baby Bubbles

Baby Bubbles is a baby (10 months - 24 months) and parent/caregiver swim group focused on building comfort and confidence in the water.

Recreation Therapists will guide parents and caregivers in supporting their child in fun and interactive water-based activities. We will focus on introducing early swim skills through engaging, play-based activities that promote comfort in the water, fostering a love for the water, and learning about other TVCC and community based swim opportunities.

Prior to attending this pool group, a Recreation Therapist will contact you to learn more about your child.

Goals:

1. Water Confidence: feel comfortable in water and feel comfortable in a pool setting 2. Water-Positive Attitude: develop a positive connection with water through play. 3. Water Skills: learn early swim skills assisted by a parent/caregiver, including active movement, floating, moving on their stomach. 4. Parent Coaching

For this swim program, parents/caregivers MUST accompany their child in the water and pool deck/change rooms and be within arm's reach at all times, even if they are wearing a floatation device. Parents/caregivers must be comfortable moving through chest-deep water (1.2m), understand how to be safe in the pool, and be able to respond to the needs of their swimmer. If this does not describe the parent/caregivers comfort in water, please contact dHIgfCB0dmNjICEgb24gISBjYQ== for alternate pool programs.
