Great Bonding

You’re in the water with your child! It’s fun, and you’ll be amazed at how much you will both love the experience.

Learning to Float

Developing balance and flotation comes easier when babies start young. Expert teachers help you to help your bub.

Back Floating

With your support, it’s amazing to see your little one relaxed and breathing comfortably while floating on their back.

Holding their Breath

Children are encouraged with cues, songs and toys, to learn to be comfortable with their face underwater.

Submerging

Another key skill that little ones learn and love! Exploring underwater is lots of fun.

Singing and Playing

Any teacher knows fun is where learning starts and confidence grows. Games, songs and play keep your little one engaged.

WHY CARLILE SWIMMING

The first to teach babies in Australia and still the number one choice for baby swimming lessons.

World Class Teachers

Trained beyond the industry standard, supported by Supervisors ensuring high quality lessons, in a system proven to deliver outstanding results.

Award Winning Program

Building the skills to help children confidently progress, the Carlile system is at the cutting edge of learn to swim.

Warm, Safe, Custom Built Pools

Babies love the warm water and our depths, lengths, ledges and platforms which support confident learning. World’s best practice technology ensures hygiene.

Family Values

We love children and watching them become kids who love to swim. Even better is seeing former students bringing their kids or grandkids to Carlile.

No Floaties

If your child accidentally falls into a pool, chances are they will not be wearing floaties. They give a false sense of security and make learning to swim correctly more difficult.

Regular Feedback

We constantly monitor and address your child’s progress and provide regular feedback. Our Parent Portal also has videos of classes, so you know what we are working on.

Carlile’s baby swimming lessons can save a life, but there is more to swimming than safety

Australia’s Griffith University conducted a ground-breaking four-year research study and found that 3 to 5 year olds who attend regular swimming lessons were:

  • 11 months ahead in verbal skills
  • 6 months ahead in mathematic skills
  • 2 months ahead in literacy skills
  • 17 months ahead in story recall

Baby swimming classes have a maximum of seven children per class. They are $28.75 each on a weekday and $30.75 on weekends, paid monthly in advance (there are family and multi lesson discounts available). Find out more here.

Just wanted to give the whole team at Carlile Lane Cove West a 5 star review. Our 3 children are all here now getting swimming lessons and we have already seen a significant improvement in All 3 in a short period of time. We have been to a few swim schools over the years around the north shore and definitely rate this system as the best for us. The staff behind the desk are always happy and polite, the 3 instructors Tash, Manfred and Gordon are doing a super job with our kids. Even Dan from the assessing team is friendly and very observant watching the kids strokes all the time and always approachable. Very happy family at Lane cove Carlile.

I can’t say enough good things about the swim school - friendly staff, great clean facilities, excellent dedicated instructors, and easy car park. Special shout out to my child's instructor Tilly! My 5-year-old has shown incredible progress in both confidence and comfort in the water, all thanks to Tilly’s amazing teaching style. Her stern yet friendly approach has really worked well – it’s clear that she has a deep understanding of how to motivate young children while maintaining a fun and safe environment. My child looks forward to every lesson and has made good progress in her swimming skills. Highly recommend Carlile Swimming (and Tilly) 🙌🏼👏🏼
