Bathtub swimming

“Who has never been a child, will never be an adult.”

Charlie Chaplin

Swimming in a bathtub full of warm water in dim light is a very pleasant return for the baby to the surrounding they used to be in in their mother's tummy. This environment is familiar to them and they feel like in their natural habitat.

The guarantee of PaedDr. Jana Hochová

We swim in a special large and deep bathtub with drinking water which has 35 to 37 °C with no other additives. The time spent in the bathtub is adjusted to the age of the baby, their abilities and current mood. We follow a given methodology guaranteed by PaedDr. Jana Hochová. You will see the big progress of your child under the professional guidance.

More than swimming

Our professional instructors teach parents how to handle and hold the baby correctly. Besides the swimming, the parents receive useful information about psychomotoric development, nutrition, massage and healthy physical activities for their baby on dry land.

What to take with you?

• 2 muslin blankets, large towel, spare diaper, disposable changing mat
• t-shirt and slippers for parents
• If you don’t breastfeed, take your baby formula with you as children are ofter hungry after the lesson

Dry your baby well after every swimming, pay extra attention to ears. Special tissues for drying ears can be found on our changing table. Give yourself at least 30 minutes before you leave our centre as the baby needs to dry properly and adjust to the temperature changes.
