Imagine a childs mobile. When you move any one piece of a mobile, all the other pieces move too!  They do not exist in isolation from one another, and “movement” in any one part of the “system” will affect all the rest of the parts of the system too. Having a baby brings change for a relationship without any doubt. From being a couple, suddenly being a family and with it comes a lot of new challenges for the relationship. Not much later this changes again when you become a parent. Employing someone to look after your child also brings an additional dynamic into your house. If you want to build a healthy family, it is helpful to be aware of these dynamics. Be aware of the stumbling blocks a relationship can face once a baby arrives and understand the different developmental stages your child goes through and what you can do to give your family the best headstart in life. To employ a Nanny to look after your children has a big influence on your family system as well. Building a good relationship including effective communication as well as a comprehensive training about child development and self-management are the basis for a successful employer-employee relationship.

Our program has been created by parents, for parents taught in an energetic and fun-filled way.  We run class throughout the week, including over the weekends, just to make sure Dad also gets a chance to get wet!!  In essence the program has been designed to enhance the bond you have with your child in order to teach them how to enjoy the water and ultimately learn to swim.  After all, in all aspects of life, you are your child’s best teacher, why should swimming be any different! Throughout the lessons we will explain what we are doing and more importantly why, this will involve very specific instructions using verbal, visual and tactile stimuli, to reinforce what we are teaching together. As your confidence grows, so will your child’s, reinforcing the bond you share. We specialise in teaching children to swim from birth to 4 years and believe it is never too early to start. Our five stage, 50 week Baby Swimming Program, will take you and your baby on a fantastic journey of discovery (sometimes underwater too); learning the benefits of early exposure to swimming and mastering our various baby swimming techniques.  We only use warm water pools (30 degrees minimum) so it is ideal for babies.  Our high energy Toddler Swimming Program picks up where the Baby Program finishes off What to Do, Classes for Parents & Kids, Sport & Adventure, Swimming Lessons, Cape Town all suburbs 2011-11-15T13:04:48+00:00 http://www.capetownkids.co.za/listings/entry/kiids-boutique1/ http://www.capetownkids.co.za/listings/entry/kiids-boutique1/ Kiids Boutique caters for children aged 0 – 12 years of age!
