Self-Rescue
You want your child to enjoy all the fun life has to offer, while ensuring those activities do not compromise his or her safety or well-being. High-risk activities such as playing in and around water must be approached with utmost caution and a protective introduction to the activity.
ISR goes beyond traditional swimming instruction, teaching children self-rescue techniques to survive in the water.
Babies 6 to 12 months learn to:- Hold their breath underwater
- Roll onto their back
- Float unassisted, rest, and breathe until help arrives
- Perform these self-rescue skills first in a swim diaper, then while fully clothed
- Hold their breath underwater
- Swim with their head down
- Roll onto their back to float, rest, and breathe
- Roll back over to resume swimming until they reach the side of the pool, crawl out, or are rescued by an adult
- Perform these self-rescue skills first in a swim diaper or bathing suit, then while fully clothed
