Your Self-Rescue and Swim Instructor in Vero Beach, FL.

When moving into a house with a pool and two young children ages three and one, Bethany was desperate to find self-rescue swim lessons for her kids to keep them safe both in and around the water. She was grateful to have a good friend who would not stop talking about how amazing ISR was and how she had to do it. Bethany enrolled her kids as soon as she could. After a single week, and through the encouragement of the ISR instructor who taught her kids,  Bethany was certain that becoming an ISR instructor could be the life change her and her family needed. 

Bethany was excited to be accepted into the ISR training program shortly after her children completed their ISR session. ISR has changed everything for Bethany and her little ones, giving her the autonomy to choose a work schedule most conducive for her young children in this stage of life. 

Bethany confidently shares with anyone who will listen that ISR not only gave her peace of mind as a mom to know her children are safe but allows her to live out her mission of being the primary influence in her kids life while doing something she is passionate about to help serve both children and their families by teaching them life saving skills. 

Living in Florida where sadly the leading cause of death in kids under 4 years old is drowning, Bethany is passionate about helping as many families as possible which aligns with ISR's mission that "Not One More Child Drowns.

FAQs
How many days a week are lessons?
Consistency is KEY when it comes to ISR lessons. Lessons are conducted 5 days a week (Monday through Friday) at the same time each day. With our high frequency, short duration lessons we can mold these skills into your child’s muscle memory so they become something they will not forget. Daily attendance must be adhered to barring illness.
But do they learn to swim?
They sure do! Any child of walking age will learn to hold their breath, kick and reach to swim to get to the wall, steps, or to an adult they are swimming to.
Will my child cry?
They might at first. Just as they cry with anything new before they have an established vocabulary. They cry during tummy time, in the carseat, during diaper changes, sitting on Santa’s lap…the list goes on. Our lessons are no different. I am a new person to your child, teaching them new things, so it is normal to have some emotions at first but as they learn to be independent in their skills most of the time the crying goes away pretty quickly. You are always welcome to come and watch me teach.
How long are lessons?
You’d be surprised how much energy little ones can use in 10 minutes, which is why this is our maximum lesson time. They are using new muscles, physically engaging in the water, all while learning at a pace appropriate for them. I promise you, 10 minutes maximum a day is more than enough to see progress and works with their energy levels so they do not end their lessons feeling yucky and exhausted.
