Infant Swimming Starting at 6 months!
All parents will want to learn more about this important baby and toddler safety skill. Did you know that babies as young as 6 months can save themselves from a fall into the water? Did you know that children as young as one year can swim?
We are happy to bring Infant Swimming Resource to the JCC! This is a well regarded swimming survival instruction course that is taught by certified experts. ISR uses an innovative approach to teach both the verbal child and the non-verbal infant survival swimming skills. Knowing how to make a critical rotation from face down in the water to face up in the water can save your child’s life.
Instruction is one-on-one and carefully individualized to your child.
Dates, times and fees for this infant swim course are still to be determined. Please call Sheryl Rothe at 444-6440 or rothe@swimisr.com for more information.
