PRO Babies are our youngest and bravest swimmers, who have typically already completed our Swim Babies class. They’re ready for more independence and a little time in the water without mom or dad.

If your child is between 16-30 months and has already had formal lessons, PRO Babies is the level for you. PRO Babies learn the following:
