Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What age can my baby start?
A: We take babies from 10 to 12 weeks of age, depending if the individual baby. Most mums are happy to start then as they are not constantly drinking the water also most mums are happy to start after their first set of injections which is usually around this time, but if you are unsure please consult your health visitor or GP.
Q: Why do I still have to be in the water when my child turns 3 years of age?
A: See Water time together for full explainations.
Q: When can I start Aqua Natal Yoga?
A: You are welcome to join us once you have had your first scan which is around 13 weeks into your pregnancy. From experience most mums-to-be prefer to start around 16 weeks as they like to have a little bump to show in the water.
Q: How much does the Baby swimming, Aqua Natal Yoga cost?
A: Please email us for these details, as prices vary on the pool that you wish to join.
