When we first got Zoee she didn't like water either. My parents had just drained their pool and were starting to fill it up again. So there was just a little water at the deep end. My niece took Zoee and taught her how to swim. Now you can't keep her out of the pool when she goes to my moms.

Taggart was scared of the pool when we first got him. I think partially because my niece (the same one that taught Zoee) forced him to go in a few times. He'll go in on the first or second step, but only if he's after Zoee. She gets in and swims around just to get away from him. Even in the kiddy pool in our backyard he will only stand in it and stick his nose in the water. Zoee lays in it, but he won't.

My suggestion is just to expose her to water any chance you can get. And make it a fun experience. It will help if you can get in the water with her, like a large pool. I think she's still young enough that you can get her use to the water. Just don't get discouraged and give up. Keep at it and make her think water is the most fun thing in the world.

Good luck!!
