About Tots4Tennis Founder

Introducing Claire, Founder of Tots4Tennis

With over 6 years of experience teaching Pre-K children at a private school in Connecticut, founder Claire understands the critical importance of developing both cognitive and physical skills in the early years. Having recently relocated to Manhattan, Claire is excited to combine her passion for early childhood education with her love of tennis to create a program that helps toddlers grow in every way—on and off the court.

Claire’s specially designed Tots4Tennis Program, brings her wealth of experience and passion for both tennis and early childhood development to Manhattan. Starting tennis at just three years old, Claire quickly became a top-ranked junior player in South Africa, before playing professionally on the European Tennis Tour. She then went on to play D1 college tennis at the University of South Alabama, where she played in multiple NCAA Championships while competing in the Sun Belt Conference.  In addition to her impressive tennis career, Claire will be the new Varsity Tennis Coach (2025) at Collegiate School in Manhattan.

This program is designed not only to teach basic tennis skills but also to promote essential hand-eye coordination and social interaction through games on the court. The classes are held on a world-class, squash court at The Waterline Club in Waterline Manhattan, providing a safe and modern environment for young children to develop both physically and socially.

With Claire’s expertise and dedication to nurturing young athletes, your TOT will enjoy a positive and enriching experience that sets the foundation for a love of sports and movement for years to come.

About Program

Welcome To Tots4Tennis

 Tots4Tennis is a unique program designed specifically for toddlers aged 2-4 to develop essential social and motor skills in a fun and engaging environment. Held at The Waterline Club’s all-purpose squash court at 400 West 61st Street, New York, our classes are tailored to foster coordination, teamwork, and basic tennis skills through playful games and activities.

Why Tots4Tennis ?

At Tots4Tennis, we understand that early childhood is a critical time for growth, and the development of motor and social skills is just as important as academic learning. Claire believes that teaching toddlers body movement, hand-eye coordination and ball skills lays the foundation for future success—both on and off the court.

Each class is designed to:

  • Promote Social Skills: Small groups of just three children per class ensure personalized attention and encourage positive interaction with peers.
  • Enhance Motor Skills: Our activities are centered around improving gross and fine motor skills, helping toddlers build strength, balance, and agility.
  • Introduce Tennis Fundamentals: Through age-appropriate games, children will have fun learning the basics of tennis, such as ball control and racket handling.

What to Expect:

  • Fun, Game-Based Learning: Our classes are centered around exciting games and activities, making learning enjoyable and ensuring toddlers stay engaged.
  • 45-Minute Classes: Short, focused sessions designed to hold the attention of toddlers while promoting both physical and cognitive development.
  • Small Group Sizes: With only three children per class, your child will receive plenty of attention and be part of a supportive, friendly environment.

 

We invite you to experience the fun and benefits of Tots4Tennis with a $50 first lesson. After your initial class, you can easily book lessons one at a time.
