Prepare your baby/toddler for submersion at home
Nov 20, 2023
This is a guide on how to train your baby or toddler at home to hold their breath on cue, so that they can safely submerge in water.
You will learn how to safely teach your infant to anticipate water going over their face and to hold their breath on cue; and to know when they are displaying signs of readiness to be submerged.
This method is easy to incorporate into baby's bath time routine. Consistent and frequent application of this method will result in very fast results.
This tried and tested method can be used to train children from birth up to 26 months of age.
Our guide uses an effective, gentle and child friendly method to progressively build up your child's awareness and skills.
This guide is a great supplement for parents that have recently joined our Baby & Tots classes (or classes elsewhere) and would like a reminder on how to help their child get comfortable with water over their face.
The ability to submerge is just one skill your infant can learn from early swimming lessons. When used in conjunction with the many other skills taught in our Baby & Tots or comprehensive online AquaTots course (this course includes this tutorial), your child will become more water safe.
