Starting Swimming Lessons For My 4 Year Old With Turtle Tots

Posted on by Emma Reed

When I had Jake, I thought people were crazy to pay out for a newborn to go swimming, for making the time and effort to go to a class when they were so sleep deprived and for getting their babies to swim under the water, all I could think was ‘how will this benefit them?!‘
