SO PROUD of my dear friend and the magnificent trainer she was and is to me! Check out where I was trained in teaching kids survival swim ♥️🎉

🌊 We’re honored to be featured in **MetroFamily Magazine**!

This feature shines a light on our Founder & CEO and the passion that started it all—a mission to help keep children safe in and around the water through life-saving swim lessons.

What began with a dream to make a difference has grown into a community dedicated to building confidence, teaching life-saving skills, and giving families peace of mind.

We're so grateful to every family who has trusted us with their little ones and to MetroFamily Magazine for sharing our story. 💙

Because every child deserves the chance to be safer in the water.

I get videos like this all the time from my swim families and it brightens my day every time! 🥰

But it also reminds me why I choose this career every day. The days in the pool full of tears are long and hard. But the skills they walk away with make it worth it. The peace of mind for parents means the world.

Thank you all for trusting me with your precious children! I do not take it lightly that you let me hold and console them while I teach them one of the hardest lessons they’ve learned in their early little lives!

Maybe you don’t know… but drowning is the number 1️⃣ reason why your child wouldn’t make it to kindergarten. Read that again- the N U M B E R ONE reason for accidental child death is drowning.

Why swim all year round?… Why do maintenance lessons?…. This is why.

This amazing swimmer has been with me for 3 years.

She started with screaming, like most do, but quickly learned to trust me and slowly but surely changed to giggles and swim progress.

Today she’s diving to the bottom and swimming across the pool because of her parents dedication and trusting the process

Yes + No
Knowing how to swim without goggles + open your eyes in the water is survival skill 🙌🏼 We WILL practice this in lessons.
BUT, wearing goggles is sometimes helpful in order to achieve this goal.
ALSO, wearing goggles in the pool is fun and makes swimming for toys way more fun.
So yes + no on goggles 😊
