FAQ

  • How long will it take for my child to be safe in the pool?
    There are many factors that can influence how long it will take a child to be an independent swimmer, but just remember, every child is different. Some of these factors include fear of water, sensory challenges, poor motor planning, trauma, etc. While the average time is around 4-6 months, some individuals will require much more time to gain the skills and confidence needed to be an independent swimmer.

  • Will you work with children who have aggressive or verbal behaviors?
    Yes! Our swim school specializes in working with individuals with behavior challenges. Prior to lessons starting, we will discuss a behavior plan to be implemented during lessons. We have many techniques that we use to promote safety for both the instructor and the student, even for students with aggressive behaviors. If your child is older and stronger, we may ask a parent to accomany us in the water as an extra set of hands. Safety for all is our number one priority.
