Hello From the Otter Side!
Did you know that an otter pup swims alongside its mummy otter until it is water ready and self-reliant? This behavioral adaptation of otters exhibits the unyielding bond between a mother and its pup. It typically takes about a year for the otter pups to gain confidence and head off on their own with their unrivaled swimming abilities.
Just like the otters, swimming is in our DNA. OtterSwim's dedicated to offer the best swimming lessons in Singapore that is all set to create new benchmarks! We understand that learning to swim can be a daunting endeavour for some people, both young and old. As parents, we know that every single day and moment is precious. Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them. Hence, our goal is to provide expert instructions in an environment where you and your baby are completely comfortable to ensure the best swim experience that could be treasured for life.
Have fun and nurture the bond with your baby by introducing them to the water. Using a gentle and gradual approach, our specially trained swim teachers will work with you and your child focusing on water awareness, confidence & safety for a smoother transition into the higher levels while ensuring your baby feels comfortable in an indoor heated pool.

Why learning to swim will benefit your child?
Swimming lessons equip your kids with the skills to be water safe, enjoy being in and around water and fast-track physical and mental development. With only the best swimming coaches in Singapore, OTTERSWIM!'s positive learning environment leads to increased confidence for children. Here are some other significant advantages of learning to swim:
01. Keeping up with Physical Activities
Kids still have plenty of energy to burn, so continuing to swim means they have a good positive outlet for that energy.
02. Maintaining Swimming Skills
Younger children especially tend to experience a lapse in swimming skill when they're out of lessons for a long period. Hence, it's important to keep children swimming to ensure they keep progressing with their skills and techniques.
03. Improves Sensory & Cognitive Functioning
When swimming, your baby moves its arms while kicking its legs. As they're doing these actions in water, their brains are registering the tactile sensation of water plus its resistance, improving overall motor skills. Swimming is also a unique social experience, which furthers brain-boosting power.
04. Reduced Screen Time
Screen time is certainly a hot topic in parenting today and we all have our own family thresholds. Excessive screen time relates to a reduction in active play, which is essential for your child's learning and development. You may be assured that the time spent in swimming lessons, as well as getting changed before and after swimming, is time your child won't be in front of a screen.

First joined OtterSwim when my baby was 15 months, and these 6 months have been a great experience! While it is a group session, I have seen how Coach Xi Xin made little tweaks to better adjust and connect with my baby. My baby loves her swim class and looks forward to it each week :) wish I had joined much earlier and would highly recommend!

We've sent our child for Baby Otter class and Coach Xi En has been so good with the toddlers! She is patient and gave a good connection with them. My child loves the engaging songs and movements and simply love swim class there. The facilities are good and adequate; shower rooms and changing rooms as well as baby bath tubs for smaller babies, and changing tables too.

Vast improvement for our boy who loves the water and was afraid to put his head into the pool. Within a term, all this has changed! He really loves swimming and look forward for his lesson with Coach Darren every weekend. Highly recommended for parents looking for swim lessons for their kids. Indoor heated pool and reasonable price is definitely 👍

My child enjoys the swimming lessons at OtterSwim. The coach assigned has great patience and monitors the child's progress. When it was observed that being in the existing class may hinder the child's swimming progress, the coach highlighted to the staff, and they arranged for the child to be placed a more conducive class. OtterSwim’s environment is clean and comfortable. My child looks forward to the swimming lessons at OtterSwim.
