Infant Swimming Resource

[Jango]

Founded in 1966 by Dr. Harvey Barnett, ISR is now the global leader in the industry it pioneered: survival swimming lessons for infants and young children. Our team of nearly 450 highly trained ISR Instructors provides the safest and most effective survival swimming lessons available. The ISR Self-Rescue™ instruction our students receive today is the product of over 45 years of research and achieves unparalleled results.

Today, our mission, “Not One More Child Drowns,” is the foundation of everything we do and is the driving force behind ISR’s employees, our independent ISR Instructors, and our major corporate partnerships. We believe the successful prevention of the leading cause of accidental death for children under the age of 4 in the U.S. will require a large group of caring and capable professionals whose sole focus is to save lives. To date, we have delivered more than 7,750,000 ISR Self-Rescue™ lessons and saved more than 800 lives.

ISR believes pool fences, supervision, and pool alarms are important parts of a necessary multi-layered approach to drowning prevention. However, traditional lines of defense break down, and the over 4,000 drowning deaths per year bear a grim testament to the fact that traditional approaches are missing a key component: the child. ISR’s core conviction is that the child is the most important part of a drowning prevention strategy and our over 260,000 ISR graduates and 800 documented survival stories are proof that children can save themselves. Children are curious, capable, and have an uncanny ability to overcome obstacles like pool fences; at ISR we take that ability and teach them skills to potentially save themselves if they find themselves in the water alone.

Very interesting. I heard somewhere that a infant needs very little training to swim and he will be completely safe in water after a few lessons, natural instinct.

Those kids are very cute though!

I posted this few months ago was quite shocked to see this an infant can be trained to swim this is one of the major reason for deaths of infants in USA because many houses have small swimming pools and many children fell in them because parents often forget to lock children inside or some times they just go out side for a while and with in that tiny moment baby goes into swimming pool

Hey while you're at it search in YouTube for this. I once saw a couple of videos where a bunch of Arabs were trying to teach infants how to swim. The guy plopped his infant into a swimming pool and while the poor thing tried to come out, the dude kept shoving it back in.

It was hilarious, but also tragic.
