WaterSafe Swimming, LLC Swim Lessons for kids 6m-5 Hey! My name is Ashley Jackson. I am the owner and instructor of all the WaterSafe swim lessons. Age range is 6 months-5 years old.

I have been trained by Laura Canterbury, swim instructor for the past 6 years. I am red cross certified and lifeguard certified. Being a mother, I know first-hand the importance of teaching kids how to be safe around water and the basics of swimming. The earlier you can introduce a child to water, the better. Here are the steps I use to help ensure safety and to teach kids to the basics of swimmin

g:

1. teaching children to go under water­—getting each child use to having water in their face
2. teaching children to kick and move in water
3. teaching children to jump off edge and go back to wall for safety
4. teaching children to work on basic stroke and breathing—this normally happens at age 3-4

Each session is Monday-Friday for two weeks. The class is an hour, and there are under 10 children in each the class. The cost is $250/child. The first 2-3 days are the hardest in the class. Tears should be expected because it is new to a lot of the children and the children seem to feed off each other. Parents can help improve their children's swimming once they leave the class. Practice outside of class is encouraged.

It has come to my attention a complete stranger has posted a bad review for my business. I want to let everyone know I have no clue who is this person is. We have mutual friend, and I have reached out to that person. That person does not know her either. The review claims I send my child to school while having a child at home positive with COVID. My children are at school per school rules. 2 out of 3 of my children had COVID after Christmas, so they don’t have quarantine while my 3rd is isolated at home. My husband and I are fully vaccinated. If you know me, you know I take COVID seriously. My daughter and I are immunocompromised. I find it crazy and disheartening; however, I have to explain myself and my family’s business to FB all because of one stranger. If you have any questions or concerns, please DM. Thanks!

I am only doing one week, 30 minutes for four kids. The first lesson will be at a pool on Canterbury Rd in MBV. The lesson time will be 2 pm

The second lesson will be same format the third week in May at a pool in Cherokee Bend in MB area. I have three spots available for it.

I could possibly do a couple lessons second and third week in May like the ones above, but swimmers and families will have to be flexible on what time the lessons are each day.

I have two other pools both in MB area that I will use in June. Times will be a little more flexible bc I will not be working at my other job. Same format as the other lessons this year.

Please email me [email protected] to sign up

Looking for pools in MB area to teach swimming lessons in the month of May and June. Pools need to be heated well. I will only have around four kids in a lessons. Each 30 minutes. Might want to do two back to back lessons, so I will use pool for one hour at the most. Each lesson will consist of 5 days (M-F). I need to teach these lessons between 12-4 because I work in the morning at another job. Let me know. Thanks!

Hey everyone! I plan on teaching smaller groups, 4 littles, come end of Spring throughout Summer. I won’t know schedule until closer to time due to how unpredictable things still are. If interested, let me know. I will send texts out closer to time.

I apologize for being MIA as we approach swim season. Due to my health, I have been waiting to see if I would be ok to teach. Drs are still working on trying to figure out what is wrong with me. I don’t have any answers now, but I pray I will soon and can then make a better decision on what to do regarding swimming. I hope everyone understands. Thanks!
