Visitors from abroad

My baby is 11 days old and we are supposed to be seeing family members soon but they have just got back from holiday. How long would you leave it before they come and visit? I am worried about germs and baby catching something but also not sure if I am overthinking things!

Swimming lessons

Hi all so my almost 2 year old is starting her Duckling Swimming lessons next week , we did some splash babies when she was a lot younger but nothing in a good while. Do I need to buy arm bands?😂 I would assume so?? But I'm not so sure , she also needs glasses would it be worth me getting her some goggles?
