Hi there. Does anyone have any information regarding Mom/Baby swim classes that are available this summer? I have a 5 1/2 month old baby and would like to take classes where I can be in the water with her.
I do know that the Paul Lydon Center in Danvers Mass. has a great program. I used to take my two nephews when I was their Nanny.
I do not know where you live, but both Lowell and Andover ,MA have great programs called Swim School Plus.
I go to the one in Lowell which they have at the Lowell Boys and Girls Club.
My son is older(7y.o.)but I do know they have parent/child lessons for the smaller, or even the less confident older child.

Hi B.-
The YMCA is a great place for swim classes. You do not need to be a member it just cost a little more per class. Depending on the Y in your area it is a great place to be a member with little ones. My Y does not require me to be a member just my son ($10/mt). It is great they have free open pool time as well as free toddler gym classes.
Also if you are in the Merrimack Valley area, Cedardale/Cedarland is a great pool spot. The swim lessons are in door in the winter and they are HEATED!! Very important with the little ones. Good luck
www.poolschool.org offers classes at several locations around the Lowell/andover area. also UMass Lowell offers them on saturdays, but they don't start again until september
Hi B., I don't know where you live but there is a YWCA that was just renovated and is reopening in May in Newburyport, Ma. They have swim classes and there is a bunch of Y's in the area depending on where you are.
I am also a 36 year old mom of an almost 18 month old trying for a second child and I also stay at home. Where do you live?

Do you have a YMCA in the town you live in? I took swim lessons at the Y with my son when he was about 8 or 9 months old. He loved it.
Hi B.,
I live in Windham, NH and took my daugther when she was 6 months old to the Salem Athletic Club for swim lessons. They have various days and times and it was a lot of fun, both for her and for me.
I also just joined the new Work Out Club in Salem and I believe they have swim classes too although i havent checked that out yet. but i do know they have a great kids swimming pool with water slides and waterfalls. My daughter is now 18 months old so I will be taking her there. but figured i would mention it as well.
Take care,
C.
Hi,
I'm not sure where you are living, but I'm planning on taking classes this summer with my daughter at the Reading YMCA. If you have a Y in your area, they probably offer classes.
