Hey everyone!
I have a 5 week old and am keen on her starting swimming when she gets to 3 months. Does anyone have any great experiences of swim schools on the Shore that they can recommend? thanks

We go to The Swim Centre on Upper Harbour Drive, Albany. It is a private swim school, but is well worth the money! We have been going since Lauren was 6 months old.
You can go along and watch a class before you join too  ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Some of the Northshore leisure centres to casual classes, which is a good place to start, if you're not sure if they'll like it. We go to one at the Takapuna Pool. ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

We take Livvy to Hilton Brown in Albany, it's purely a learning school ie. not open to the public. They also start from 3 months (we didn't go until Livvy was 6 months).
