REFRESHER CLASSES:

A MESSAGE TO PARENTS
Many parents don’t realize the dangers of introducing young children to water before they know how to save their lives in an unexpected water encounter. Before your baby can feel confident to safely enjoy the water, he or she must first learn the skills needed for Self-Rescue. ISR is the safest provider of infant and toddler swimming lessons nationwide. Using instruction techniques based on the behavioral sciences, ISR teaches each child survival swimming skills in conjunction with basic swimming lessons that give them the competence required to safely enjoy the water.
Every day a child in the U.S. reaches the water unsupervised and ends up in a potential drowning situation. Parental complacency happens to even the best parents, and is extremely dangerous – every time your baby doesn’t fall into the water it can reinforce the idea that they can be left alone for “just a second” – until they can’t and it’s already too late. The best safeguard is not to rely on your baby’s past behavior, but to equip your baby with critical ISR Self-Rescue skills. One of ISR’s goals is to help parents make sure their young children can perform survival swimming techniques, and have the opportunity to learn them in conjunction with basic swimming skills.
Watching your children is not enough, nor are pool safety gates able to protect them from every hazardous water situation. Parents must provide their children with the final layer of protection in the unfortunate event that supervision lapses – even momentarily -- and a child ends up in the water alone. ISR’s proven methodology is this final layer, and teaches your baby ISR Self-Rescue skills in a completely safe environment to give him or her water competence to safely play in and around the water and to mitigate the risk of drowning.
