Here are some basic answers to a few of the most common questions I am asked; 

 

👶🏼👵🏾 Age— What age do you recommend starting swim lessons? 

 

— 6 months is the BEST time to start, but it’s NEVER too late! Why? Because babies are born with a strong gag reflex that will easily expel the water that goes into their mouth making it a whole lot easier to teach them to hold their breath. Waiting too long to submerge them can make it much scarier to learn this skill. It’s especially difficult when a child is accustomed to swimming with a floatation device to keep them from going under water 🛟 

 

🩵 How many lessons will my child need? & How much does it cost? 💵

 

— Every child is unique in their abilities & they all learn a little bit differently, which is why I can’t predict exactly how long it will take. Infants under 12 months should come a minimum of 2 days a week for 15 minute lessons, students over one should come 1-2 days a week for 30 minute lessons. Lessons can be purchased in a package or individually, once a package is completed you will recieve a coupon code for $10 off refresher lessons to continue as needed. 

 

📆 Availability— When can we get started?!

 

My calendar can be found on my website under my services, follow the link as if you were going to purchase a package & it will take you to the booking page, before you complete your purchase please confirm that you have found an opening that suits your schedule according to the minimum requirements for that particular package. As soon as you have made your purchase please log in & schedule out all of the lessons so that my availability updates for potential new clients, if you need to make any changes to your appointments please do so at least 24 hours before.

 

👧🏻👦🏽🧒🏼 Siblings— Do you have any deals for multiple kids?

 

My 12 pack of lessons can be split between siblings, book them back to back for 6 lessons each & if we need to make any adjustments we can do so after the first few lessons. For example if one child learns faster we can use more time for the other child.

 

🤔 What do I do as the parent?— Will I need to get in the pool too? 

 

You will not need to get in the pool with us unless we’ve made prior arrangements, parents typically watch from their vehicles where they can see & hear everything! 

 

✅ Policies— What are your non negotiables?

 

24 hours notice must be given in order to reschedule a session.📲

 

Students must not eat or drink dairy for 2 hours prior to lessons, please also avoid APPLE 🍎 & CITRUS 🍊🍋‍🟩 for a full day befofe lessons! 

 

No more than 7 days should go by between lessons unless discussed & approved. 📆 

 

Students who are not fully potty trained MUST be DOUBLE DIAPERED! If they are not then there will be disposable swim diapers available for $3, or 2 for $5. The pool is warm & that along with swallowing salt water can make some kids have to poop 💩
