About Esbe

Hello Infant Aquatics Family!

Hi, I’m Esbé Moolman—a loving wife and proud mom of two little water lovers. As a certified Infant Aquatic Survival® Specialist and the owner of Little Legends Infant Aquatics® here in beautiful Pretoria, South Africa, I feel truly blessed to combine my passion for children with the joy of helping families feel safe and confident around the water.

For years, I taught swimming using traditional and local methods, always searching for the most engaging and effective ways to guide children on their swim journey. That all changed when I discovered Infant Aquatics®️. I was immediately captivated by its unique and highly effective approach to teaching infants and young children essential survival skills. In that moment, I knew I had found my calling. Teaching has always been my passion, and now I have the privilege of combining that passion with a mission that truly matters: helping children develop a love and respect for the water while equipping them with the skills to survive — and thrive — in it.

As a mom, water safety isn’t just a professional priority for me—it’s deeply personal. Living in beautiful South Africa, where sunny days and countless pools, rivers, and beaches make swimming such a big part of life, I’ve seen firsthand how essential proper water training is. We’ve all heard the heartbreaking stories of drowning, and as a parent, those stories strike a chord that’s impossible to ignore. That’s why I am committed to being part of the solution.

Becoming a Certified Infant Aquatics® Instructor under the guidance of Judy Heumann was truly life-changing. The six weeks of intensive, hands-on training in the U.S.—far from my family and home—challenged me, stretched me, and ultimately equipped me to make a meaningful difference in my community. Watching children as young as six months learn to float independently, and later swim with confidence, has been nothing short of inspiring. Their resilience, determination, and ability to grasp life-saving skills in just a few short weeks constantly reminds me of how capable these little legends truly are.

Every child is unique, and every lesson reflects that. For me, the greatest reward is seeing each child grow in confidence and skill while learning to love, respect, and stay safe in the water.

At Little Legends Infant Aquatics, we use the proven Infant Aquatics® methods to give your child the very best start in the water. Our focus is on teaching life-saving self-rescue and aquatic safety skills while nurturing a genuine love for swimming. By combining safety with confidence and joy, we help children not only survive but truly thrive in the water—and I’m excited to guide your child on that journey.
