Your baby can start swimming in baby swimming class as early as after birth. The chlorine in the water helps to kill off bacteria and most baby swimming class will warm their baby pool to about 32 degrees for baby. You can even set up your own baby pool at home with inflatable tub. However, if you are looking to bring your baby to normal public swimming pool, it will be better to do that after your baby reaches 6 months. This is because public pool may be too cold for your young infant. http://www.babycentre.co.uk/x542046/how-soon-can-i-take-my-new-baby-swimming
