Baby Swimwear for Pool and Beach
Baby swimwear from MINOTI is made for the pool, the paddling pool and the beach, for splashing about at a first swimming lesson or on a week by the sea. Babies at public pools in the UK normally wear a swim nappy underneath, so leave a little room for it when you choose a size. Each product page lists the fabric and colours for that piece.
A newborn usually takes 56 cm, a baby of 6 to 9 months 74 cm and a 1-year-old 86 cm. If your baby sits between two sizes, go up one, as wet fabric clings and a swim nappy adds bulk. Some shops say swimsuit and others say swimming costume; they mean the same garment. After chlorine or salt water, rinse the costume in fresh water and dry it away from direct sun. The care label gives the washing details.

Your questions answered
MINOTI Baby Swimwear is a collection of swimming costumes and swimwear for babies, sized in centimetres on the MINOTI chart, where 56 cm fits a newborn and 80 cm fits a baby of 9 to 12 months.
What size swimwear should I buy for a 6-month-old baby?
A 6-month-old usually takes 74 cm, which fits 6 to 9 months. If your baby is long for their age or wears a bulky swim nappy, 80 cm gives more room. Measure your baby's length and compare it with the size on the product page.
Does my baby need a swim nappy under a swimming costume?
Yes. UK public pools usually ask babies to wear a swim nappy, and it goes under the costume. Allow for it when you choose a size. If your 3-month-old is at the top of 62 cm, pick 68 cm so the costume goes on comfortably over the nappy.
