Mini Minnows ISR

These sisters are the sweetest trio and are so supportive of each other in and out of the water. Every day, after the last sister finishes, they huddle up together for some post swim snuggles. 🥹🐠🩵

TOPIC:😢Crying

We want to remind our parents that tears are a completely natural part of the learning process. Growth happens outside of our comfort zones, and confidence comes from consistency. They are stronger than you think!

Crying is normal communication for a young child learning new skills, with a new person, in a new environment. Much like the first day of daycare/school, learning to ride a bike with no training wheels, or even the first night alone in their own room, fear is a typical response to new challenges or experiences. These situations make children feel uncertain, vulnerable, powerless, and anxious. Once they learn they CAN do it, those fears usually turn into confidence and smiles!

Remember, your child feeds off of your energy. They are watching YOU! How you react to your child’s emotions will dictate how they react to situations. Stay positive! While they may not see it now, you’re doing this to keep them safe. Sure, it’s tough to hear them cry, but I can promise you….not being able to hear their cry ever again because they are no longer with us, is what’s truly tough! Thats the pain my friends now experience daily!

CRYING=AIR=ALIVE!

Unfortunately for me, my job description isn't to make all children HAPPY in the water...it is to make them RESPECT it, and it be SAFE in and around it!

You got this! They got this! WE got this!
TOGETHER💚

even if it means tears, we will continue to fight for you, and others gone too soon to drowning.

Better together. 🐠🩵

Lunch date with a side of life-saving strategy!🩵

Before the chaos of our big summer sessions officially kicks off, we took some time to power down and power up together.

While we run two separate businesses—
Mini Minnows ISR and Flint Hills ISR, we share the exact same heartbeat: drowning prevention. Water safety isn't a competition; it's a community effort.

We are so proud to team up, share ideas, and cheer each other on as we dive into another season of equipping local kiddos with essential water survival skills.

Here's to a safe, impactful summer of serving our communities! We thank all of our followers, friends and family for the incredible support!

Better Together!

I received a message in my inbox this morning from a Ft. Riley lifeguard who witnessed one of my swim babies saving their life at the pool. These messages are a reminder why I do what I do.

Humbled and honored to be a part of something so big! Thank you for trusting me with your sweet kiddos and allowing me to teach them life saving skills!
