What kind of results can I expect from these lessons?
Infants ages 6-12 months can learn to roll over from a face down position in the water and rest in a comfortable float to breathe. Active infants may begin the kicks of swimming and be able to go a short distance before floating. This takes approx. 12-20 lessons.
Children ages 12 months to 5 years can learn to open his eyes, hold his breath, and grasp the pool edge. They also learn how to turn back towards the edge in case of an accidental fall in. They can learn to paddle to the steps, side or platform. When the child feels the need to breathe, he will roll onto his back. After a short rest period he will flip onto his tummy and continue to swim while looking for the pools edge or other landing. This takes approx 16-24 lessons.
Children who have learned from the swim float swim program naturally progress into freestyle swimming with rhythmic breathing. This transition occurs between ages 4-6.
How Are Lessons Conducted?
Consistency in attendance is key. Toddlers and young children do best with short lessons multiple times per week, rather than one long lesson. We use a variety of proven methods from swim schools and infant toddler programs.
- Lessons begin with the parent/caregiver handing the child to the instructor in the pool.
- If your child is reluctant to get in the water, we ask that you reassure them by focusing on the skills we are working on rather than their emotions. Your child needs your encouragement not your sympathy. As your child becomes familiar with the process we will concentrate on particular skills.
We do several check out lessons in clothing to see if your child could perform skills equally well if he/she fell into the water while fully clothed. |
Meet the Instructor/Owner
Hi my name is Kirsten Ongel, owner and instructor of Tiny Bubbles Aquatic Academy. I am the mother of 3 beautiful boys ages 6, 4 and a new arrival July 1st, 2008! When my first son was around 1 year old, I began searching for swim programs, I quickly became frustrated with the lack of programs for his age group. I was very fortunate to have found an instructor with expertise in this field. I was mesmerized at the sight of babies with the ability to go from a swimming position to a floating position without the assistance of an adult. I was so impressed with the skills learned and the outcome that it motivated me to make a career change. I have a strong background working with children. I have a bachelors degree in Elementary Education and an Associates Degree in Child Studies. I have decided to join the crusade to protect our children. I get as excited as you do when you see the life-saving skills they have attained!
I have over 300 hours of hands on training in infant aquatic survival, Red Cross lifeguard certified as well as certified in Adult/Infant/Child CPR and First Aid. I continue my education by attending conferences and seminars focused on swimming techniques. To date I have taught over 200 children this method of swimming.
I look forward to hearing from you soon and having you take part in this very important process.
I LOVE MY 3 BOYZ!!!!!!!!!!!
