Striking a Balance Between Essential Survival Skills and Joyful Playtime

Welcome to Watch Me Swim, the premier swim school for infants and young children since 2000. We understand that when it comes to swim lessons for little ones, parents have many questions and concerns. Should the focus be on survival skills or simply having fun in the water? At Watch Me Swim, we believe that children should have the opportunity to learn essential aquatic survival skills while also enjoying themselves in the water. We provide a unique and comprehensive approach to swim education that bridges the gap between traditional swim lessons and playtime in the water. With our one-on-one, individualized lesson program, children can learn critical safety skills in just a matter of weeks. Our expert instructors, located in Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania, work with each child to develop their unique physical, emotional, and developmental capabilities, helping them progress to more advanced swimming skills once they have mastered the basics.

Roll Back to Float

Swimming Lessons for Infants 6 months to 12 months

Infants in this age group are taught the essential survival skills of rotating from a face down position in the water to a face up position and independently maintain a comfortable floating posture; rest and breathe until help arrives. These life savings skills are also practiced while fully clothed for aquatic problem-solving opportunities.
Lessons are conducted one-on-one, four days per week , Monday - Thursday. Each lesson for this age group is approximately 10 minutes in length. Students are required to attend 4 lessons per week at their same scheduled lesson time each day, Monday - Thursday for the duration of the 4-6 week course. Please Note: All lessons have a performance-based exit and not a time-based exit. No two children are exactly alike therefore, no two lessons are conducted exactly alike. Parents or caretakers observe each lesson from the pool deck.

Swimming Lessons for children 12 months and Up

Children in this age group are taught the essential survival skill of rolling back to float as well as independent swimming (basic front crawl swim). Students will swim with their head down for approximately 3-5 seconds, when they are tired and need to breathe, they will independently rotate onto their backs, float, rest and when ready, they will flip over to resume swimming. They will repeat the Swim-Float-Swim sequence as many times as needed until they can swim to safety. Upon completion of the course, your child will have the survival skills necessary to save himself from a potential drowning situation along with the enjoyment of recreational swimming. Toys & games are incorporated in these lessons for a more enjoyable lesson experience. Lessons are custom tailored to meet the physical, developmental and emotional needs of each child.
