Kynan was a little younger than Faith when he first started waterbabies classes at 10m old (he'd never been in a pool before). He is quite a sensitive little boy who needs a lot of reassurance so I expected him to have a few issues with such a strange and new situation but he did really well (might help that he loves bath time too!). He had a little sook and clung to me for the first 5-10 mins but got used to things really quickly. I think during the 2nd lesson he had a bit of a cry but we just stood to the side while I reassured him and we joined in again when he was ready. We've just started classes again after about a 5 month break. I thought he would have forgotten it and be scared but he loves it.
Can you take Faith to the pool again before the lesson or get there early so she can spend some time adjusting to the different environment?
