Southend-on-Sea Borough Council's Executive Councillor for Culture, Councillor Derek Jarvis, said: "It is important for youngsters to get used to water at a young age, especially in an area so close to the sea.
"These classes offer a great opportunity for children to learn different water skills towards helping them to swim.
"They gain water confidence in a fun environment, supported by a qualified swimming teacher and with other parents and children of a similar age."
