Safe Swimming at Goldfish Swim School – Farmingdale, NY
At Goldfish Swim School in Farmingdale, we prioritize safety and fun for all our young swimmers. Our comprehensive swim programs cater to children from 4 months to 12 years old, ensuring that each child develops essential swimming skills in a safe and supportive environment.
Why Safe Swimming Matters
Teaching children how to swim is one of the most important life skills they can learn. Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death in children, making it crucial to equip them with the knowledge and skills necessary to be safe around water. Our dedicated instructors are trained to teach water safety alongside swimming skills, fostering a lifelong love of the water.
Our Swim Programs
Mini (4 – 3 months)
In our Mini classes, parents or caregivers accompany their little ones in the pool, creating a comforting atmosphere while introducing them to water. Our certified instructors guide parents in teaching their babies foundational skills, such as floating, blowing bubbles, and developing comfort in the water.
Junior Swim Lessons (3 – 4 years)
Designed for preschoolers, these classes focus on water safety, coordination, and basic swimming skills through fun games and activities. Children learn to enter and exit the water safely, float independently, and practice stroke techniques, all while building confidence.
Glider & Pro Lessons (Ages 4 – 12)
Our Glider & Pro program is tailored for children who are ready to refine their skills. Instructors emphasize water safety, stroke development, and endurance through engaging lessons. Students progress through various skill levels, ensuring each child receives personalized attention and guidance.
