PARENT/CHILD CLASSES

Welcome to JCC MetroWest Parent & Child Aquatics

For each level of Parent and Child Aquatics, our instructors follow a plan to introduce new swimming and water safety skills that are developmentally appropriate for infants and young children.

Routines and the familiar are extremely important to your young swimmer. Each class uses toys, songs, fun and games to keep the children engaged and enjoying the water experience, all the while teaching them basic aquatic skills.

It is important to understand that Parent and Child Aquatics is not designed to teach children to become good swimmers or even to survive in the water on their own. 

Reistration for JCC MetroWest Summer Aquatics Programs will open on May 29.

Registration for the 2012 - 2013 JCC MetroWest Aquatics School will open August 9. JCC MetroWest Aquatics School runs September - June and is open to JCC members and the public. JCC Members receive discounted rates on all JCC MetroWest Aquatics
School Classes. JCC Aquatics School monthly fees are charged the 13th of each month for the following month's tuition. JCC Member's please note that your JCC discount will be applied when we process your payment
