Parent and Child Aquatics
In Parent-Child swim lessons (6 months-36 months) parents learn how to safely work with their child in the water, including how to appropriately support and hold their child, and how to prepare and encourage their child to participate fully and try the skills. Children receive an introduction to basic skills that lay a foundation for learning to swim. As the children progress through the skills, they are challenged to try more advanced skills until they are ready to move into Preschool Swim Lessons. Parents and children are introduced to several water safety topics throughout the lessons.
Registration for each session closes on the Tuesday before the first day of class. Requests for group swim lesson refunds must be submitted in writing to uncaquatics@unc.edu no less than 2 weeks prior to the first day of swim lessons.
