About
I'm a water safety instructor and have been certified for over 5 years. I've been a lifeguard and a first responder for three years. I am a mother of two wonderful boys and love children of all ages. I believe water safety is a crucial aspect of growing up, especially in this area. I teach children safety skills necessary for survival first and foremost then proceed to swim skills. I offer fast track sessions for children 5 and up to get them swimming independently within 1 month. I have certifications available upon request. Please contact me 469-560-6396 for further information or to set up lessons.
I enjoy the look on a kid's face when they have conquered their fears! I enjoy the parent's faces full of pride when they see what their kids can accomplish. Swimming is a very necessary skill that can be mastered early on. Most importantly, I want to help put an end to Childhood drowning due to a lack of knowledge and experience.
