FAQs
Is it the baby fat that makes them float?
Actually, the primary factor in a baby’s ability to float is the ability to take air into the lungs. To maintain
this access to air, the child must adjust his/her posture. The difference in positioning for an adult can be
inches. For a baby, this adjustment is reduced to centimeters. If a child’s body posture is just a few
centimeters off, it can make the difference between the face being submerged or the child having access
to air.
Are swimming lessons for infants and young children safe?
I can’t speak for all swim lessons, but I can tell you ISR is dedicated to safety and maintaining numerous
safety protocols to promote safe lessons. Your child's health and well-being are our highest priority and
are closely monitored on a daily basis. In addition, your child's medical and developmental history is a
mandatory part of the ISR national registration process, all of which is held strictly confidential. All ISR
instructors undergo intensive and rigorous training that far exceeds any other training program of this
kind. Each ISR instructor is also required to recertify yearly with emphasis on quality control, safety and
lesson efficiency. Your education in the area of aquatic safety for your entire family is an integral part of
your child's lessons. You will receive access to the "Parent Resource Guide" to inform you about every
aspect of swimming and aquatic safety for infants and children.
With research, you will find that ISR is not only the safest survival swimming program but also the most
effective for teaching infants and young children.
What other benefits does the ISR lesson experience provide students?
Every child is unique. However, many parents report that once their young children have mastered
learning to swim, the resulting confidence in their abilities engenders a positive self-concept that is often
demonstrated in other aspects of their personalities. There are also obvious health and other
psychological gains.
Do you have children that just can’t learn the skills?
No. Every child can learn. It is my job to find the best way to communicate the information so that it
makes sense to the child. I set your child up to be successful every time you bring them to me. I start
where they are and through consistent lessons, we see progress.
