Hello Topeka swimmers, I need some help!
☀️I am in search of a pool to use this summer for swim lessons.
I have been very spoiled with a heated outdoor pool in the past that allows me to maximize my day. If you or someone you know is interested please reach out!
I am only in the pool M-Th starting late June-July.
Word of mouth is the best!

Trauma is a common fear for parents when considering survival swim. This may help put it into perspective.
Trigger Warning: Image of a child that died from drowning.
“But isn’t letting your baby cry in the water traumatizing to them? “
“I won’t get survival swim lessons for my child because I can’t watch my baby cry.”
The real of this is that babies are going to cry. It’s how they communicate. They do it when they are mad, sad, not sure what you want them to do, hungry, when they have soiled themselves and yes, when they are scared too.
Toddlers have separation anxiety as a normal phase of development and will scream and cry if you leave them with anyone, regardless of if that person is in water or not.
Just because your baby may cry during (usually only the initial few sessions of) survival swim lessons (they would cry during any lessons), it does not mean that they are being traumatized. It means that they are being a normal, baby human.
Reputable survival swim instructors know how to teach your children without traumatizing them. They are trained not only in teaching water survival techniques but also in phsychology of learning and child development. They know the stages and phases and what kids can and can’t do at specific ages. They know how to teach each age and stage appropriately. Trust them.
Take it from a momma who knows what real trauma is and wishes she could hear her child cry just one more time….
Drowning is the most likely reason a child under 5 in the United States will die. You wanna talk trauma? THAT is trauma.
Get your children skilled in the water.

This is a friendly reminder before one of the busiest holidays of the year:
⚠️ More adults DOES NOT equal more supervision ⚠️
Many times we all assume someone else is watching them. This is especially true when having a conversation. Take turns being “on duty” so someone is always watching! Stay safe and have a great holiday weekend friends!

Drowning in a Sea of Misinformation: Dry Drowning and Secondary Drowning | Dear Dr. Christina Unfortunately, there is significant misinformation in the media reports of this case, and we hope this evidence-based discussion of drowning and the best practice medical care of drowning patients will help set the record straight.
It’s one of my favorite days of the year!
First day of swim class 😎☀️

Most children under the age of 6 do not have the upper body strength or coordination skills to save themselves, using traditional swim strokes, in a water emergency. It often takes years of lessons for them to be able to learn those strokes well enough to save themselves while using them.
But children under 5 are at the highest risk of drowning NOW!
The good news is that there ARE skills they can lean now and quickly, that can save their lives!
Give your little the gift of survival swim lessons. Give them the chance to survive the most likely cause of death in their age group.
Save the traditional lessons, which are also very important to learn, for when they are older than 6 and can learn them well.
Survival swim lessons even lend a hand in helping kids learn traditional strokes much faster, when they are older and really ready to learn them.
