As of Sep 13, 2026, Enrollercoaster tracks 313 swim classes and lessons for toddlers in Manhattan, from 13 providers including Asphalt Green, British Swim School of Manhattan, and Take Me To The Water. 225 are open for registration right now, and the rest are closed or not yet reporting a status. 62% of the programs with a published schedule meet on a Saturday or Sunday; the rest are weekday-only.
Prices. Across the 121 programs that publish a price, the typical (median) listed price is $258; most fall between $249 and $375, with a full range of $57 to $1,320. Providers list prices differently — a single class, a month, or a full term — so compare the registration pages, not just the number.
Ages. Every program here accepts at least part of the toddlers range (ages 1–3); the list leads with the classes built for this age and finishes with those that only touch it at the edge.
Where the open spots are. By neighborhood, the most swim classes and lessons for toddlers with open registration today are in Battery Park City (27 open), Upper East Side (26 open), Chelsea (24 open), Financial District (22 open), and Midtown East (17 open). Neighborhood counts change daily as providers open and close sessions.
At 1 to 3 years old, classes are short (30 to 45 minutes), a caregiver is usually expected to participate, and the real skills being taught are following a routine, taking turns and being comfortable in a group. Most programs in this band publish a lower age limit in months; an "Ages 2-3" class is not the same as an "18 months-3" one, so check the range before booking.
225 of the 313 swim classes and lessons for toddlers we track in Manhattan are open for registration as of Sep 13, 2026. Status is read from each provider's own registration system every morning.
The typical listed price is $258, and most of the 121 priced programs fall between $249 and $375. Prices are as published by each provider and may cover one session, a month or a full term.
Usually yes, if the child's age falls inside the range the provider publishes. On this page the classes built specifically for ages 1–3 are listed first; those that only overlap the edge of the range come last, so check the age chip on each card.
Today the most open swim classes and lessons for toddlers are in Battery Park City (27 open), Upper East Side (26 open), and Chelsea (24 open). These counts are recomputed every morning.
The largest by number of programs are Asphalt Green (86), British Swim School of Manhattan (73), Take Me To The Water (69), Goldfish Swim School (16), and Physique Swimming (11). 13 providers in total have swim classes and lessons for toddlers listed in Manhattan.
Yes — 193 of the 311 programs with a published schedule meet on a Saturday or Sunday. Use the day filter above the list to show only weekend or weekday classes.
