For baby swimming lessons, we recommend goggles with clear lenses and a clear frame. Being able to see your eyes and facial expressions helps your baby recognise and connect with you during class, which can be especially reassuring when introducing new skills or water activities. It can also help to wear them at home occasionally so your baby becomes familiar with how you look when they're on. Choose a comfortable pair with a secure, leak-resistant fit that allows you to focus on enjoying time in the water together.

SOUL CAP swim hats are designed with extra room for curly, voluminous, braided, loc'd and Afro hair, giving children a more comfortable fit without compressing their hair.

A swim cap isn't usually required unless your pool has specific rules. However, many parents with longer hair find that a swim cap helps keep hair out of the way during lessons.

No swim hat can guarantee completely dry hair, but they can help reduce the amount of water reaching the hair and make swimming more comfortable. They're also useful for helping protect hair from chlorine and improving streamlining in the water.

No. For good eye health and hygiene, goggles should not be shared. Having your own pair helps reduce the risk of irritation and ensures the best fit and comfort.

Many swimming goggles include anti-fog coatings. To help preserve this coating, avoid rubbing the inside of the lenses and rinse them with clean water after swimming.
