Join us at the TVCC Therapy Pool for Family Swim! Grab your suit and join other TVCC families for a dip on any of these available dates. 

For this swim program, parents/caregivers MUST accompany their child in the water and be within arms reach at all times, even if they are wearing a floatation device.  

Parents/caregivers must be comfortable moving through chest-deep water (1.2m), understand how to be safe in the pool, and be able to respond to the needs of their swimmer. 

If this does not describe the parent/caregivers comfort in water, please contact tr [at] tvcc.on.ca (tr[at]tvcc[dot]on[dot]ca) for alternate pool programs.

About the TVCC Therapeutic Pool: 

• The TVCC pool is 61m/24ft long, 12ft wide with a shallow end of 0.79m/2.5ft, sloping to 1.05m/3.5ft; there is a step down to 1.19m/4ft. There is a tot-dock in the shallow end for younger children to stand on. 
• The pool is very warm: 34C/93F. 
• Little Swimmers or a waterproof swim diaper/cover (no diapers!) are required for anyone unable to hold their bladder/bowel.
• There are no food/drinks allowed in the pool area, pool change rooms, or pool washrooms. 
• Family Swims are supervised by TVCC staff, but they will not be in the water with you
• The pool area is small; spectators are asked to hang out in the first floor waiting room and watch through the windows
• We have a variety of toys and floatation devices you can use while you're here, but feel free to bring your own if you have something that works well
• Our family change rooms are accessible and are equipped with change tables, bathrooms, and lockers (bring your own lock if you would like to use one)
