It doesn’t need to take two years ❤️

Did you know that it can take up to two years for a child to learn how to swim? Rob Haves reports that there is a local resource for parents to get your kids water safe - in the link in the comments

Hi everyone! Just a reminder that as summer pool season opens and many in the community offer swim lessons, anyone claiming to “do ISR” or “teach ISR” should be certified on the Infant Swimming Resource website!

Please check this website for certified instructors below 🙂

Swim instructors should be certified, trained and insured if you are trusting them to teach your children the most important, life-saving skills. I’m always here to answer questions 🤍

Search for Infant Swim Resource instructors in your area. Our ISR locator tool will find swim lessons near you. Just enter your zip code or exact address.

If you know me and my lessons I try hard to keep your little ones happy, and my job is to help them learn skills to stay safe. It’s a balance 🤍

When my baby wouldn’t stop crying at swim lessons, these 8 things helped me through:
👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

1. I focused on how she behaved immediately after the lesson was over. I found comfort in the fact that she calmed down quickly and reached to her instructor for high fives.
2. I considered the many other circumstances that made her cry. From needing to have her diaper changed to having to share a doll with her sister, there was plenty of material!
3. I reminded myself that when kids do not yet have extensive language skills, crying is a common mode of communication.
4. I conversed with my instructor often about her progress at lessons. When discussing swim lessons at home, we focused mostly on the skills being gained. “Today you swam to the steps with your eyes open!”
5. I connected with other parents who chose the same instructor. There were plenty of families at the pool who had kids who had transitioned from crying to smiling. It was easy to find families that loved and trusted the program.
6. I noticed that she had begun to “pretend play” as a swim instructor. She behaved kindly and encouragingly to the dolls and toys that she was “teaching to swim.”
7. I continued to remind myself of our “why”. Drowning is the leading cause of death for kids 1-4, with most of these accidents happening at non-swim times. Our family loves to travel and be at the pool. We needed these lessons. We needed our kids to learn the skills and respect.
8. Remembering the previous seven tips helped me check my own attitude poolside. When I put my most confident and trusting self forward, it positively benefited my baby too!

This is a great article!
I’m a certified ISR instructor BUT I’ve also been an ISR mom before three times.
This is a great summation of what it feels like to be an ISR parent and the amazing benefits it has for your family! https://theeverymom.com/isr-swim-lessons/?fbclid=IwZnRzaAREzahleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAo2NjI4NTY4Mzc5AAEeoCuhFIjZ2axDG5YBwMGSZpWAiyNwjGkPt_lC29HTMJwlttTTd7Z_RqeOiaI_aem_vT5w6UzM9OvoSegBVWu0JA

My toddler recently started ISR swim lessons to learn water safety. If you're on the fence about ISR, here's my honest review.
