Love this place! My son is currently taking classes with Alex and Richard and I truly can’t say enough great things about them. My son is happy, he’s making major improvements, and he actually looks forward to going. Two thumbs up.

I highly recommend FINS of The Woodlands. My children have made great progress through this program. Previously, we tried two other swim programs and made little to no progress. This was a completely different story. The instructors are patient, give clear instructions and make the learning experience fun for the kids.

As this time of the year is the time to express appreciation and gratitude, I’m writing with my thanks to the FINS team. My son has been swimming with them for years and it has been nothing but a wonderful experience. The team is very accommodating, the instruction is highly professional, the support is constant. THANK YOU, FINS!

Love the experience here!! I can proudly say that 3 of my children that go to FINS will be well trained to join a swim team. That’s what makes it a great place to be. The joy of comfortably knowing your kids are safe in the pool is another. Highly recommend this place to anyone.
Parent-Child Classes for Growing Swimmers
Our swim classes for infants and toddlers follow the Little Dipper path, two gentle levels designed to build water comfort at exactly the right pace for your baby or toddler.
Little Dipper 1
Your baby's very first splash. Gentle water exploration, supported movement, and fun swim cues with you in the water together.
Little Dipper 2
The next step for growing toddlers. Breath-holding, wall gripping, back floating, and guided movement with your support close by.
Early Water Skills Your Child Will Practice
The infant and toddler swim program focuses on early water skills that help children feel relaxed and supported in the pool.
Your child will begin practicing:
- Water acclimation and comfort in the pool
- Supported front and back floating
- Basic breath control and face-in-water practice
- Safer pool entry with guided movement
- Early kicking and simple arm actions
Each skill builds a foundation that carries your child confidently into their next swim level.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should a baby start swimming lessons?
Many swim programs begin lessons around six months of age, when babies can start becoming familiar with water in a supported environment.
Do babies learn to swim in infant swim lessons?
Infant lessons focus on water comfort and basic safety skills rather than independent swimming.
How long does it take toddlers to learn swimming basics?
Every child progresses at a different pace, but consistent lessons help toddlers gradually build confidence and early swimming skills.
Should parents be in the pool during infant swim lessons?
Yes. Parent-child swim classes involve a parent or guardian in the water to guide and support the child during activities.
What should my child wear to infant swim lessons?
Babies should wear a comfortable swimsuit and, if not reliably potty trained, both a disposable swim diaper and a snug, lined, non-disposable swim diaper over it.
