本书导言：
     Who better to teach your baby to swim than the people he trusts the most? We believe
parents are a baby’s best teachers, on land and in the water, and have therefore adapted our
established swim-school program specifically for this book, so that we can pass on the wealth
of knowledge we have gained from our nurturing and stimulating child-friendly classes. Learn to
Swim is designed to help parents establish an optimal learning environment for children aged
six months to four years. Utilizing our combined 50 years of experience in teaching thousands
of babies and children to swim, we will guide you to successfully create a watery classroom
      full of positive reinforcement, color, music, stimulation, laughter, and motivation.Our  commonsense approach places your child at the center of the learning. He will learn anddevelop swimming skills through games, songs, humor, praise, and developmentally appropriate skill activities.You will follow a child-paced, step-by-step learning progression especially designed  for very young swimmers. And although this book is for parents who are teaching their own  children to swim, we hope swimming teachers will also find it useful and integrate our gentle   approach to baby swimming into their programs.
     Learning is a process, not a product‚Äîit should occur at the child‚Äôs pace, when he is open,
receptive, relaxed, and ready.We teach swimming—not thrashing—and that takes patience,
practice, and a great deal of time, and when you give your child that time and patience, you lay
a foundation of mutual respect and trust that you can build on in other areas of your lives.
Teaching your child to swim in this supportive and caring way is not just about helping him to
learn water confidence and safety skills. It is also about developing a teaching style in relation
to the way your child learns, encouraging and supporting him rather than being demanding
and demeaning, and replacing the pressure to learn with the desire to learn.
     Celebrate each small step along the way, and remember that there is no need to rush or
force your child to perform as there will be periods of skill assimilation and learning plateaus.
Read your baby’s body language and assess his level of readiness to determine the course of
each lesson.We want your child to enjoy this experience from his very first trip to the pool, in
the hope that he will continue to enjoy swimming for a lifetime. As you play with your baby
in the pool, you are not only teaching movement through the water, but fostering exploration,
curiosity, trust, joy, wonder, risk-taking, confidence, grace, and endurance.
