Meet Your Instructor
Hi, I’m Carmen Ankrah, a certified Infant Swimming Resource (ISR) instructor serving families in Cypress, Texas. Through Born Aware Swim, I provide individualized, private survival swim lessons that help infants and young children build body awareness, confidence, and safe responses in the water.
Before becoming an ISR instructor, I worked as a respiratory therapist, caring for patients during serious breathing emergencies, including drowning incidents. That experience shaped my passion for water safety and led me to ISR, where I now teach children the skills that can truly make a difference in an emergency.
Questions or More Information
How long is the program?
Most children attend lessons Monday–Friday for about 4–6 weeks, depending on their age, readiness, and individual progress.
What ages do you work with?
ISR lessons are designed for infants as young as 6 months through 6 years old. Each lesson is tailored to your child’s developmental stage.
What if my child cries?
It’s completely normal for some children to need time to adjust to a new environment and new skills. Lessons are gentle, structured, and guided at your child’s pace as they build confidence in the water.
As your child becomes more comfortable and confident, the initial fussing typically decreases.
Where are lessons held?
Lessons take place in my heated home pool in Cypress (West & Fry area), providing a calm and controlled learning environment.
What happens if we miss a lesson?
Consistency is important for skill development, but I do my best to work with families on occasional absences when possible.
