Jump Swim Schools Hackham We specialise in teaching babies and beginners in our modern, purpose built, private facility. NOW OPEN!! JUMP!

was founded to create a private teaching facility for babies, infants and children to learn to swim; away from the vast numbers at public facilities. provides a clean, modern and private indoor facility which is heated throughout the year. Our service is unique by providing smaller classes which allows the swim instructors to develop positive relationships with both parents and children. As our service is more intimate it allows the teachers to be able to focus on each child and gain trust and confidence which will enhance their swimming ability. As we are a private facility we expect that the customer service provided is reliable and beyond the standards of other swimming facilities.

🐙🐙BIG CONFIDENCE, GREAT PROGRESS🐙🐙
Our Octopus level is for children who have mastered the basics in either our Turtle or Crab classes. They are confident and physically ready to learn "big circle arms" for both backstroke and freestyle. Children practice these skills without a kickboard, after all, it is a SWIMMING lesson not a "Swimming with a board" lesson. We also extend practicing treading water and our safety fall-ins.
Once students can swim 7m on their front and back, with a strong kick they move on to our Frog level where we add in side breathing.
Octopus classes are available 7 days a week - make an enquiry today!

On the blog: Big confidence starts here – How Swimming Helps Children Build Skills For Life

Swimming can feel daunting at first. The water is unfamiliar. New skills take practice. Progress requires patience.
But that’s exactly what makes swimming such a powerful confidence builder.

Children learn:
It’s okay to feel nervous
New things take time
Mistakes are part of learning
Trying again leads to progress

When children overcome challenges in the pool, they begin to approach challenges outside the pool differently too.

👀A closer look at our levels...👀
Our Turtle level is for 2 to 4 year olds who are safe and comfortable enough to be in the pool without a parent while our Crab class is for beginners aged 4 years and over.
Both classes focus on comfort and confidence with water over their bodies, heads and faces wth an introduction to basic mobiity and water safety skills.
Children are promoted from Turtle or Crab to Octpus level when they can:
❤ swim 5 to 7m to the teacher with their eyes in, paddling and kicking, blowing bubbles and lifting their head for a breath if needed
❤ are comfortbale floating and kicking on their back with minimal assistance and without any flotation aids
❤ demonstrate breath-holding when collecting a sinky toy in chest depth water
❤ comfortable with a simulated fall-in, turning and grabbing the wall without stress
Turtle and Crab classes are availabe 7 days a week. Click here for more information ⬇️

🚫NO FLOATIES🚫
At Jump we believe it is important for children to learn about their own buoyancy in water - if they were to accidentally fall in, they need to feel comfortable enough not to panic, they need to know that will sink, and they need to turn back towards where they fell. This is the reason we do not use attached flotation aids.

Part of the process is practiced in each level of the parent/child program using an activity we call "Dolphins". The parent walks backwards creating a slipstream of water for the child. Half way across parents use the cue "name, ready, go!", slightly lift the child then lower, assisting them to glide towards the parent, submerging to their chin/mouth/nose/eyes dependent on level of readiness.

The activity is extended, when the child is ready, to the parent letting go of the child for up to 5 seconds after submerging.

This gentle, child-centred approach means there are no tears anywhere to be seen and leads to a "safer" experience - knowing that there may be a time when they "escape" from parental supervision.
