Infant Swimming Resource! For more than 40 years, Infant Swimming Resource (ISR) has been teaching critical Self-Rescue™ skills -- giving children the competence and confidence to safely enjoy the water. ISR's technique teaches babies from 6 months to 6 years of age how to save themselves if they were to end up in the water alone.

Your child will not be the only one who will learn during lessons. ISR has also integrated in a Parent Education program that will educate you to understand drowning prevention methods and thereby, safeguard your child in and around the water.

Here are the Facts about ISR:
ISR was founded in 1966 by Harvey Barnett, Ph.D., with the guiding mission "to prevent drowning and enrich the lives of children by teaching them to swim."

Since its inception, ISR has provided over 7 million safe and effective lessons to more than 200,000 children. This nationally recognized program is the first and only drowning prevention strategy that has earned a 100% safety record.

ISR Certified Instructors are trained through an intensive 6-week, in-water and academic course. The Instructor is trained and tested in the academic areas of child psychology, behavioral science, physiology and anatomy. In addition to gaining an academic foundation, Instructors engage in more than 60 hours of hands-on, in-water practical application of the technique.

To learn more about the program please visit our national Website at www.infantswim.com or www.swimsafenaples.com.

The ISR Lesson Experience:
ISR Lessons are available to infants and young children 6 months- 6 years old.
These safe and effective lessons are customized to your child and taught one on one. We do not offer group lessons. Your child's lesson experience will be unique and to provide the safest possible lesson, the instructor's attention will be focused on your baby only throughout the lesson period.

Lessons are no more than 10 minutes a day, 5 days a week, Monday through Friday. In order to master these self-rescue skills, the enrollment period is between 4 and 6 weeks.

After the initial lesson experience is complete, ISR recommends that every child participates in 1 to 2 weeks of Refresher lessons every 6 months to a year. This will enable your child to learn how to adjust their swimming and floating skills to their continually growing and developing bodies.

Your Child's Self-Rescue Skills:

Infants (6 months- 12 months old) will learn to hold their breath underwater,
roll onto their back and float unassisted.

Children (1 year- 6 years old) will learn the following sequence: how to hold their breath underwater; swim with their head down and eyes open; roll onto their back to float, rest, and breath; and roll back over to resume swimming until they reach the side of the pool and can crawl out or be rescued by an adult.

Since statistics show that 83% of all children who drown are fully clothed at the time, during the final week of lessons, while under the watchful eye of an instructor, each of our students will practice their self-rescue skills in both their summer and winter clothes.
