Why I do this

In October 2001, we moved to Lakeland, Florida. On May 6, 2003, our lives changed forever when my 20-month-old daughter nearly drowned after accessing our pool in less than two minutes. Thanks to CPR training I received as a foster parent, immediate medical response, and God’s grace, my daughter survived.

While in the hospital, paramedics shared information about Infant Swimming Resource, as their own children had completed the program. As soon as my daughter was released, I enrolled her in ISR. Five weeks later, I watched her fall into a pool, roll onto her back, and float—able to save herself. In that moment, I knew I had found my purpose.

Thank you for your time. For more information, please visit www.infantswim.com.

PARENT TESTIMONIALS

Veronica K was an amazing instructor! My daughter was very fussy during the lessons, but Veronica was so patient with her. She is very skilled and cares a lot about what she does. I am already recommending ISR to my friends and will definitely be back in the future! Thank you for all of the effort you put in for my daughter’s lessons. I am so glad she learned the skills to survive in the water if she ever needs them.

Veronica is amazing. She’s very Adamant about ISR. She’s patient, she’s kind and she is very uplifting in praise to her children in lessons for doing the right thing. We have a 3 year old and 1 year, I have had nothing but comfort with my kiddos in her swim care. We are so lucky to have heard her name as a recommendation. Thanks so much, Mrs. Veronica!
