REGISTRATION PROCESS

Getting Started

  1. Contact Amy at 904.655-5328 or a.pritchett@infantswim.comand we will be in touch to answer any questions and provide further information about signing up for ISR lessons.

  2. To be placed on my schedule or waitlist you will need to go to the Sign-Up tab and complete the form. We will email you with further information.

  3. Two to four weeks prior to a time-slot opening, you will receive an e-mail with my unique ISR Registration URL which will take you to ISR’s National Registration Website.

  4. Complete the ISR National Registration process at infantswim.com. The cost to register your child is $105* which is due when completing the online registration. ​ISR will send a confirmation email once the registration process is completed. ​This e-mail will have your registration form. Your child is NOT ready for lessons until this process is complete.

  5. ​I will be notified once your child has been cleared by the Registration Evaluation Team. Unfortunately, there is no way for me to check the progress of your child’s registration. Once the ISR National Registration process has been completed and your child is cleared for lessons, you will be contacted to confirm start date and time slot as it becomes available.

FAQs
Do parents have to leave during the lessons?
No. You are truly the best cheerleader your child could have. Your positive support and encouragement are invaluable to creating an effective learning environment for your child.
Will my child need additional lessons?
Based on our research, we know that refresher lessons are important because children change so much both cognitively and physically during the first 0-5 years of life. It is important that their water survival skills grow with their bodies. Frequency depends on the child's age, growth rate, skill level and confidence level. The goal of refresher lessons is to help your child adjust his/her new body size and weight to his/her existing skill level. Your instructor will work with your child to help fine-tune his or her aquatic experience to assist with building efficiency, which will result in self-confidence. This is especially important if your child has not been able to practice any appropriate aquatic skill between seasons.
Why do you have the children swim in clothes?
Because 86% of children who fall in the water do so fully clothed, we want our students to have experience with such a situation. If a child has experienced the sensations of being in the water in clothing prior to an emergency situation, he/she is less likely to experience panic and be able to focus on the task at hand. If you have ever jumped in the water with clothes on, then you know that there is a significant difference in weight and feel with clothes as opposed to a bathing suit.
Why are lessons 5 days per week and for only 10 minutes?
The reason for this is multifaceted. First, repetition and consistency are crucial elements of learning for young children. Research shows that short, more frequent lessons result in higher retention. Second, most children have fairly short attention spans and will not be able to focus on the task for longer and we want to take advantage of the best time for learning. A third reason is that, though the pool temperature is maintained at 78-88 degrees, the temperature is still lower than your child's body temperature. Lessons are work and therefore will also be losing body heat. Instructors check students regularly for temperature fatigue since this is an indicator of physical fatigue.
