About
Little Nessies Swimming Lessons is a Carluke-based swimming school dedicated to teaching children the joy of swimming and promoting water safety. With a focus on fun and interactive classes, their experienced instructors aim to not only build swimming skills but also instil confidence in the water.
Little Nessies offers swimming classes for babies as young as 12 weeks old up to children of 12 years old. Their classes are divided into three age groups: Baby Nessies (up to 18 months), Toddler Nessies (18 to 36 months), and Pre-school Nessies (3 to 5 years). Each class is carefully designed to cater to the specific needs and abilities of each age group.
For Baby Nessies, swimming with your baby is an experience that you will treasure for years to come. The classes provide a rich sensory experience for your baby, promoting bonding through eye contact and skin-to-skin contact. By beginning lessons at a young age, your baby will develop lifelong water confidence and important swimming skills. The classes include fun activities, games, songs, and nursery rhymes that your baby will love, while also promoting language development.
In addition, Little Nessies helps develop and embed your baby's natural swimming reflexes through underwater submersions and introduces essential water safety skills.
As your child progresses to the Toddler Nessies class, they will learn to recognise safety instructions and develop coordination of their arms and legs. Using swimming aids such as woggles, your toddler will work towards swimming independently. The classes aim to build water safety skills, boost confidence in the water, and encourage leg and arm coordination. Underwater submersions and games make swimming fun and rewarding for your toddler, while teaching them how to play safely in the water.
In the Pre-school Nessies class, children aged 3 to 5 years old will continue to build on their water safety skills and develop their swimming abilities further. They will learn to enter and exit the water safely and swim short distances unaided. With a focus on both safety and enjoyment, your preschooler will develop confidence in swimming and eagerly anticipate their weekly classes. The classes provide a nurturing environment for children to practise swimming independently and improve their skills in a supportive and encouraging atmosphere.
With years of experience, the swimming instructors at Little Nessies are dedicated to providing high-quality swimming lessons that prioritise safety, fun, and skill development. They understand the importance of creating a positive and enjoyable experience in the water, helping children develop a love for swimming that will last a lifetime. Whether your child is just starting their swimming journey or looking to improve their skills, Little Nessies Swimming Lessons is the ideal place for them to learn and grow.
