Are you the owner of Water Babies at Henshaws College?
Raul, the organiser of Water Babies at Henshaws College in Harrogate, extends a warm invitation to families in the local community. Located with easy access for those travelling from Boroughbridge, Bridlington, Hull, York and beyond, Water Babies Yorkshire North & East is dedicated to creating a safe and enjoyable space for parents to bond with their babies while nurturing crucial developmental and safety skills.
Raul knows the many benefits of taking your baby swimming and is committed to helping you make the most of them. Through these lessons, your child’s heart, lungs, and muscles receive a boost, aiding coordination, balance, appetite, and sleep. Swimming also provides a perfect chance for skin-to-skin and eye contact, strengthening the bond between you and your baby. Away from daily distractions, these sessions allow for precious, uninterrupted connection time.
Safety is a top priority for Raul. Water Babies introduces essential water safety skills from an early age, empowering your child with knowledge and confidence in any aquatic setting. As they become more comfortable in the water, your baby’s overall confidence grows, encouraging them to explore and enjoy new experiences.
Additionally, the social aspect of these lessons is invaluable. Babies get the chance to interact with peers, fostering social skills and friendships. Meanwhile, parents can connect with like-minded individuals, building a supportive community for all involved.
Research indicates that swimming can speed up learning abilities. The activities performed in the water stimulate brain connections, aiding in areas like mathematical reasoning and reading, potentially giving your child a developmental edge.
Getting started with Water Babies couldn't be simpler. Just reach out to Raul and his team via message, and they will guide you to the best lesson time and location for you and your baby. Classes are kept small, with a maximum of 10 babies plus their caregivers and a teacher, ensuring a focused and intimate environment. Each session lasts 30 minutes, the perfect length to maximise your baby’s swim experience.
Lessons incorporate songs, play, and repetition, with teachers tailoring activities to each baby’s abilities. Raul ensures payment for lessons is straightforward and convenient. Monthly payments through Direct Debit offer flexibility and ease, covered by the Direct Debit guarantee for peace of mind. Should you need to change the card used for payments, you can easily do so via your 'My Water Babies' account on the website.
For any queries about payments, Raul and the local Water Babies office are always ready to assist.
Raul and his team at Water Babies in Harrogate are dedicated to providing a nurturing and fun environment for babies to learn essential swimming skills and foster overall growth.
