The ISR Mission Statement:"To prevent drowning and enrich the lives of children by teaching them to swim".
Infant Swimming Resource (ISR) is the product of over 40 years of research and development in the areas of drowning prevention and aquatic survival instruction.
ISR is a truly comprehensive infant swimming education and self-rescue skill instruction method that is well established in the fields of health care, psychology/behavioral sciences, anatomy and physiology.
Since 1966, ISR has safely delivered over 7 million lessons to teach water self-rescue skills to more than 200,000 babies and has educated parents and medical experts nationwide on water safety techniques and proven instruction methods. To date, ISR has 788 documented cases of children using ISR techniques to save themselves from drowning.
The Focus for ISR lessons is SURVIVAL. Why? Because in the United States drowning is the leading cause of death for infants and young children under the age of 4. This statistic is alarming, but the good news is...drowning is preventable. ISR recommends building layers of protection between your child and the water. These layers are essential because the reality is that most children do not drown because of LACK of supervision, it is a LAPSE in supervision, and it only takes a
momentary distraction for a curious toddler to get out of your sight. Visit our award-winning national website at www.infantswim.com for additional information about ISR, including its history, medical questions, video clips and program information.
CAN YOUR CHILD SWIM?
Yes he can, just have him taught how by ISR!
It has taken more than 40 years to sufficiently research, test and implement the critical aspects for safe and effective infant aquatic survival lessons. The foundation, expertise, information and technique now exist so that no infant or young child has to drown. It is called Infant Swimming Resource.
Babies as young as 6 months old can learn to save themselves from a fall into the water. The Rollback-to-Float program teaches breath control, correct floating posture, and the skills to attain a back float and remain floating for varied periods of time. Infants 6-12 months old are taught to rotate from a face-down position in the water to a backfloat to rest and breathe. It takes approximately 3 to 4 weeks to learn these skills.
Children as young as one year can be taught the Swim-Float-Swim sequence. This program teaches the skills necessary for a child to reach the steps, edge of the pool or shore. This process begins with teaching breath control. Children learn correct swimming posture, movement through the water, the rollback-to-float as well as rotating to a face down position to continue to swim. This swim-float-swim sequence typically takes 4-6 weeks to learn.
ISR uses both verbal and non-verbal cues to teach infant and young children. Even though your child might not yet communicate verbally, he or she can learn the ISR technique. Remember, your child may not talk, but he or she has learned to crawl, walk, and run. That is the only skill they need to find themselves in water danger.
Keep your children safe by providing the necessary Layers of Protection...
- Constant adult supervision in and around the water.
- Maintaining a safer home pool environment
- Safe, effective survival swimming instruction for children
