Book Description
The ultimate swimming guide for parents-to-be. Look forward to the experience of childbirth!Learn how to manage and work with labour pain which is the biggest fear for most of the mothers to be. It will teach you how to use it as your helper, not an enemy. It will give you a new perspective of imagining a childbirth, followed by baby and pre-school swimming programs and exercises at home and swimming pool. These are based on games so your child doesn’t even think that he/she is learning swimming techniques and will just have fun. This is a new philosophy of swimming.
Katerina Hamsikova (Kate) is a real mermaid in my eyes; the water is her second home. She has been doing freediving since 2008 all around the world but mainly in Ireland where she swims with her best friend, wild dolphin Dusty. Her passion and love while moving freely in the water and playing with the dolphin will make you think that she is really part of the underwater kingdom.

Natural Born Swimmers" is an inspiring and beautifully crafted book that highlights the deep connection between water, pregnancy, and early childhood water confidence. Kate’s expertise and passion shine through every page, making this an invaluable resource for parents looking to nurture their child’s natural affinity for water.
As someone who has recently experienced childbirth, I can confidently say that the insights and techniques shared in this book were incredibly beneficial in preparing for both labor and early bonding with my little one. Kate’s warm and encouraging approach makes the information feel accessible, reassuring, and empowering.
I particularly loved the water-based exercise program, which helped me stay active and mobile in the later stages of pregnancy. Moving in water felt freeing, and the exercises were both gentle and effective in maintaining strength, flexibility, and relaxation. The breathing techniques were also invaluable—helping me stay calm and focused during labor, especially through challenging moments.
One unique and unexpected highlight was the inclusion of basic lifesaving skills for pregnancy and early parenthood. This aspect of the book gave me a newfound sense of confidence and preparedness, ensuring that I felt both physically and mentally ready for any water-related situations with my baby.
Overall, Natural Born Swimmers is an essential read for expectant parents, new mothers, and anyone wanting to foster a lifelong love of water in their children. It’s a wonderful mix of practical advice, gentle encouragement, and joyful inspiration—I can’t recommend it highly enough!
