• Clients are not allowed to enter the pool before class, nor can a client stay in the pool after the instructor has dismissed the client. There is NO LIFEGUARD ON DUTY.
• It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to notify the instructor of any relevant and pertinent medical circumstances, learning disabilities, or water experiences BEFORE the first class begins.
• In the unfortunate instance of a client defecating in the pool it is critical that the staff be notified immediately. After the first occurrence, the client (regardless of age) is required to wear both a disposable swim diaper along with a reusable eco snap or neoprene swim diaper. Multiple incidents will result in suspension from Bridgewater Swim Academy. A mandatory temporary pool closure (anywhere from 1 hour up to 24 hours, depending on the circumstance) will be required by the Center for Disease Control guidelines.
• Parents/guardians should encourage their children to use the restroom before class and the parent/guardian will need to be available to take the child during class in the event that this becomes necessary.
• Parents/guardians may observe the class, but it will be at the discretion of an instructor to recommend that a parent/guardian leave their child’s sight in order to limit distractions, and help to build the child’s trust with their instructor.
• Bridgewater Swim Academy strives to keep a safe, family-friendly environment. In the circumstance that management feels a person is endangering others, demonstrating inappropriate behavior, abusing the facility, or becoming aggressive toward a staff member or another customer, that person will be asked to leave the facility and their registration will be terminated.
