Kelly is amazing. We did ISR with my now 5 year old and while he learned everything and his instructor was nice she wasn't as warm as Kelly. We are so grateful to have Kelly this time around she is absolutely amazing and so sweet with my child. She never makes you feel rushed and always makes you feel welcomed and comfortable. Her attitude and compassion help make parents feel more comfortable during lessons, which at times can seem scary and overwhelming. You can really tell she loves what she does, and she truly does care for each child she instructs.

Thanks for everything! Yesterday we were swimming and Everett came up to me and said "I love you Ms Kelly!" He likes to pretend play and I thought that was cute. Beckham also slid off of his slide and went face first. Unmediated rolled to his back! Sister Luci was right next to him and scooped him up bc he wasn't floating enough to get air but it made us all feel so great about his progress! We are getting ready for swim right now and Everett said "I like swim school now. I'm not afraid anymore!" I wanted to share these small moments because they really mean so much!

Kelly is warm & knowledgeable to say the least! I can't believe she's only done a couple sessions! Seems like she has been doing this for years. We'll definitely be doing refreshers in the future with her.

You should know I let Eli fall in the lake a couple of times on purpose this last week, and he instantly went into his float with a smile on his face. Out of the 11 cousins who were there, he was the only one with a sense of survival to swim who didn't need a life jacket. THANK YOU!!

My son (4) just completed and passed ISR and loved it. ISR is a good foundation. ISR Kelly Arendt is fantastic.

We love Miss Kelly!

Hands down one of the best investments I've ever made for my son. He regularly now says to me, I can do hard things, just like with Ms. Kelly. She helped solidify in him that he could do hard things, and he was brave, and he was strong. I cannot recommend ISR Kelly Arendt enough! Best investment you'll make for your family!

Highly recommend ISR with ISR Kelly Arendt! Best investment. Ms. Kelly instilling valuable lessons even outside of swimming. We now regularly say “I can do hard things” and “I did it!”

ISR Kelly Arendt is phenomenal. She is the swim whisperer!!!!

ISR Kelly Arendt hands down amazing!!! Life-saving and we now have a lifelong relationship too ♥️♥️♥️

Kelly is the best!! She made my son feel comfortable right away, and he loved swimming with Mrs. Kelly in the mornings. I cannot believe how far he’s come, and I feel now like he could save himself if heavens forbid it is needed.

Kelly Arendt has been wonderful with our little boy, she has explained the skill each day and answered all of our questions. Our little guy still cries after the course with Kelly, but he can do it crying, which is so important he can survive!

Kelly was amazing working with our daughter. Her visible confidence in her knowledge & awareness during ISR lessons was calming & encouraging.  

Kelly Arendt is not just very attentive but very caring for our child's needs during class. She takes time to ensure my child feels safe and comfortable during each session. Couldn't be happier that we decide to have our child take infant classes! Big thank you to Kelly as we continue our sessions!

Kelly is the best! She is patient, kind, caring, and definitely meant to do this profession! She goes above and beyond to accommodate her students and family. She is understanding and explains everything in great detail. I know my 7-month-old is safe with her every time he gets to his lessons! We are lucky to have Kelly. She is a great teacher. Our son has learned so much in such little time due to her expertise.

Kelly Arendt is great at getting my overstimulated toddler swimming! He will cry and cry until getting into the pool, once in the water he's starting to calm down and trust Kelly. 

Kelly has been great about answering any questions along the way and explaining what she does during each lesson. I had some anxiety around my 8-month-old starting ISR. But, I don’t have any now & watching my baby float independently is the best feeling. 

Kelly Arendt has been fantastic with both of our children. Our son and daughter have reacted very differently to the ISR lessons, and Kelly has handled both beautifully. Our daughter (18 months) has not particularly enjoyed the process of ISR, but Kelly has been patient and calm in working with her to ensure she is still progressing with the lessons well, and learning the necessary skills, despite her objections. Our son (3yr) has enjoyed everything about the lessons, and Kelly has been flexible in moving him along in the program so he can master the skills being taught at the pace at which he's comfortable, while always reinforcing his success with him. He looks forward to “swim class with Mrs. Kelly” every day.

Kelly Arendt did an incredible job leading my child through the program. She established a relationship with my child and was always kind and supportive. She went above and beyond to make sure my child had the skills mastered before the end of the course. It was clear that she cares for the wellbeing of the children she’s teaching, one example being the towel warmer she brought in. This was so thoughtful and made such a difference after each lesson! 

Kelly Arendt was a great instructor! She earned our daughter’s trust early on, which can be difficult to do. My daughter is five years old, so can be both timid and stubborn. Kelly made an effort to build a relationship with not only her but whomever from her family was there with her. Each lesson was fun which made for a relaxing environment that allowed for my daughter to achieve a strong float! Can not say enough positive things about our experience with Kelly!

Absolutely loved the time that my daughter got to spend with her instructor, Kelly Arendt. Would highly recommend ISR to all parents and Ms Kelly if they are local!
