St. Louis tends to get its seasons all jumbled around, resulting in four different winters and the world’s most confusing fall. However, if there is one thing this city understands, it’s how to give you the hottest summer ever. Just walking from the grocery store to the parking lot in July will make you sweat! As we get ready for another summer with lots of pool time, it’s important to ensure your child is ready. The fact is that water incidents happen all too often with children and can quickly become devastating. The best thing you can do is teach your child how to handle the water responsibly as soon as possible with a class such as ISR. As a St. Louis motherhood photographer, I receive local recommendations from the moms in this area. Here are some of their favorite centers for ISR in St. Louis.
50 Gay Ave, Clayton, Missouri 63105
ISR St. Louis was founded by Christie Cloutman, a certified ISR instructor and mom herself. Christie became passionate about this work after her daughter fell into a hot tub. While her daughter was quickly saved, she saw just how important it was to teach these skills as soon as possible. They provide private classes in several areas across the city and offer several teachers who will work one-on-one with your baby.
Greater St. Louis ISR is another program opened by Christie Cloutman. This option is perfect for people in the greater St. Louis area, including those across the river. They have dedicated teachers in Illinois in Madison County and St. Clair County. You can also find Missouri teachers in South County and JeffCo. The teachers are certified and have years of experience as swim coaches. You can chat with them about local pools so you can have lessons in a convenient location.
Gateway ISR was opened by Stacy Wistuba, a certified St. Louis ISR instructor with a lifelong love of the water. Stacy has been swimming since she was an infant. She has made it her mission to teach children across the St. Louis area life-saving skills. Her method is built around consistency. Your child will take classes five days a week on average over the course of six to eight weeks. Stacy works in public pools across the Greater St. Louis area.
