I’ve never heard of the Infant Swim/Self Rescue program, BUT we have an in-ground pool and both our parents had them as well. Mrs. CTL and I bought were in the pool our first year of life. All of our children and grandchildren were in the pool and being taught to swim, float and tread water the first summer after that they were at least three months of age.
Mrs. CTL and I held ARC Water Safety Instructor certification as young adults and worked the waterfront at summer camp. Our kids were certified lifeguards and worked at camp and the JCC.
We do not allow friends’ and family’s kids in our pool until they prove to us they can swim confidently.
