Supervision

Boy standing by fenceWatching your children is not enough, nor are pool safety gates able to protect them from every hazardous water situation. Parents you must provide your child with the final layer of protection in the unfortunate event that supervision lapses - even momentarily - and a child ends up in the water alone. A moment's inattention does not have to cost a child his life. ISR's proven self-rescue training is the final layer, teaching your baby water self-rescue skills in a completely safe environment and giving him or her the competence to play in and around the water and giving parents the skills and knowledge to adequately supervise and protect their children from drowning.

Tomorrow may be too late. Take action today.

  • Purchase a simple timer. Set it and then do nothing but watch your child during that time.
  • Purchase door locks for every door and window leading to your pool.
  • Install a fence.
  • Schedule a visit with an ISR instructor and observe a lesson.
  • REMEMBER, your child's safety is your sole responsibility. Do not delegate it to others.

CPR Training Saves Lives

CPR is, at best, an after the fact emergency management procedure with an uncertain outcome. Learn CPR but do not rely on it to save your child from drowning.
