Infant & Toddler ProgramClick here to send in your online form to get your first 2 lessons FREE! Available at the DLSA Wilsonton Aquatic Centre & DLSA Centenary Heights (from TM). The Infant program initially focuses on the importance of water safety and awareness. From the age of 4 months we begin to focus on the reflex action. The reflex action is a series of skills such as water orientation, breath control, floatation skills and propulsion skills. Lessons are based around songs and games. The DLSA Infant/Toddler Program also utilises a unique 'Circuit Program' to keep the classes interesting while your child continues to practice the reflex action skills. Infant/Toddler Program is conducted in the hydrotherapy pool which is heated to 33 degrees year round. The DLSA infant and toddler program is structured according to individual skill level - not age. Through repetition your child will develop and progress to the early skills required for Learn to Swim.
