Parent/Child Swim
There's nowhere better to learn to swim than the Y, where we've been helping all ages to swim for more than 150 years. We teach all ages and abilities beginning at 6 months old. At Crossroads YMCA, we provide a safe environment with certified instructors, and lifeguard(s) on duty when the pool is open. All of our staff is also CPR/AED/First Aid trained. Water safety is incorporated into our swim lessons. Each session, children receive progress reports showing the skills they have learned. In our Parent/Child swim classes, children age 6 months-3 years with a parent will be introduced to swim readiness and water safety.
