Swim 'N Float

I am a certified Infant Aquatics Instructor in the Knoxville area, My training included 6 weeks of intensive, hands-on, in water training as well as academic studies. I am also CPR/First Aid/AED certified. As a mother of 2 young boys (and a 3rd on the way), I have a strong desire to teach infants and toddlers the skills they need to survive a water incident. My 3 year old and 20 month old both know how to swim for fun as well as how to roll on their backs and float. They can perform these skills fully clothed in order to survive if they were to fall into the water alone. Let me teach your child these same life saving skills.

The most essential skill we will teach your child is to roll from a face-down position in the water to a face-up independent back float. Infants and toddlers cannot raise their heads to take a breath. If your child falls face down into the water, knowing how to roll into a face-up back float can save a life! If your baby is walking, then he/she can also learn to swim to the pool edge or steps, rolling over to breathe whenever air is needed.

Roll over breathing is a technique that many schools and learn-to-swim teachers don't even attempt because it takes time, skill and patience. But once children learn to roll over to float, relax and breathe whenever air is needed, they can truly swim, stay afloat, conquer fear and experience the joy of swimming.

It's not just about being comfortable in the water, it's being able to swim and survive. Empower your child with the skills needed to safely enjoy the water! Discover the Infant Aquatics Difference today!
