  • Jeannie Pearson was amazing! We’ve done other swim lessons and they were nothing compared to what our daughter learned with Jeannie in even the first few lessons. Our daughter loved Jeannie and learned so much! We are forever thankful

  • Mrs Jeannie was amazing. She is the swimming and survival skills whisperer - Juniper is now ready to be in the water safely cause she has all the tools she needs and she knows how to use them - THANKS to Mrs. Jeannie- My daughter also has a very strong will and like to be free in the water and tends to like to play a lot but Mrs. Jeannie was excellent at working with her personality and my daughter loved her. I was able to witness her work w other kids and see how She takes a very personalized approach based on every kid’s personality and that is key. I so hope we can have her in Austin next year again.

  • Jeannie is an amazing instructor!

  • Ms Jeannie is the best. My daughter had failed to like at least other two attempts to swimming lessons and with ms Jeannie she loves to go to her swimming lessons. Rudxandra A

  • Jeannie is the ABSOLUTE best! She has the best spirit and great energy with our son. I can't believe how much he has already learned! She is an amazing teacher! Lillyan D.

  • We were students of Jeannie 2 years ago and loved our experience so much that we came back for refreshers with her. She is in such high demand, we weren’t able to get on her schedule last summer. What speaks louder than that? She is an incredible instructor. Kristen P

  • We love Miss Jeannie! She’s so amazing. Our older daughter took lessons last year and this year our younger daughter. We were amazed by the progress in 6 weeks. Miss Jeannie is patient but firm. She is consistent with the kids which is helpful. She is warm and welcoming and engages well with the kids and also the parents. She keeps everyone informed via text message, which is very helpful. We hope she comes back to Austin next year so we can schedule a refresher course! We’ve recommended ISR to everyone we know with little kids. It is a must!! Natalie D

  • Wow! I can’t believe this program is almost over! The incredible life skills Jeannie taught my son will be a part of his life forever. I knew from the moment she got in the pool with our son that she would change his life. Jeannie taught my son how to be safe in the water, how to swim & gave me confident to watch my son have fun in the pool this summer. She is ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!! We are going to miss her so much. She knows exactly how to talk & teach children of all ages. I can never thankful her enough. Because of Jeannie, my son can swim! Lillyan D.

  • Jeannie was the best instructor we’ve had so far!! (We’ve had 3). Loved her direct communication with both us and our daughter. She was so good and feeling out our daughter’s mood day-to-day and adjusting lessons accordingly!

  • Jeannie is absolutely fantastic! A GREAT teacher, wonderful with the kids (ages 6 mo, 1.5, 4, 8), and the parents too! Simply awesome lady and awesome program!!! We’ll be back next year for refresher classes. Thank you!!! Jo C

  • Jeannie Pearson is an awesome lady and a phenomenal teacher! We love her, the kids love her ("you're the best teacher EVER!)" and we've already asked to have refresher lessons with her again next year. She is fun, personable, ever-patient, kind, and takes control when our little ones are out of control. The whole process is amazing to watch. We grandparents and parents have learned so much! We've told everyone we know about this amazing woman and her amazing classes, she'll be swamped with too many requests, if she isn't already. The most important part, of course, is that even after six short weeks of training our little ones from ages six months to nine years, should one ever fall in water, they could immediately rise and float until help arrives. That peace of mind is PRICELESS. I could go on and on about these classes and our amazing "Miss Jeannie," but I think it's obvious - We love ISR and our Miss Jeannie! Thank you Thank you Thank you!

  • We loved Ms. Jeannie Pearson and appreciate her firm and consistent teachings with both of my kiddos. Lindsay P

  • I am so grateful for Jeannie. My girls adore her and look at her like a coach. Wish we could make a clone of her for this whole area. I tell everyone about her amazingness. She is incredible. She helped my oldest get over her fear of the unknown and of water. She put my momma stress at ease. She encourages and pushes them to their fullest ability. Not just for lifesaving, but for skill. I was blown away how quickly they picked up on swimming from her. She is so in tune with each child and their needs and how to challenge them. Deedra G

  • This is my 4th child doing ISR. I am always impressed with how Jeannie Pearson is adaptable to each child's needs and tendencies.

  • I am amazed at what my daughter can do now at 21 months old thanks to Jeannie Pearson. Not only is she safe, but she LOVES the water. Alyssa B

  • Jeannie is wonderful with kids of all ages/abilities. And equally good with the parents :) My kids are very comfortable & competent for their ages in the water & that is completely due to seeing Jeannie over the past couple years. I can’t say enough good things about her or ISR in general & recommend it to everyone I know with small children.

  • Jeannie was absolutely amazing. I feel confident my child has the skills to survive in an accidental situation and my daughter loves the water! I look forward to continuing with refresher classes and enrolling my second daughter next year. Alyssa

  • Lyle completed his 6 month ISR refresher course and did awesome!! He remembered how to float just like it was yesterday and learned a few more valuable skills! It was fun seeing him enjoying lessons and the water. He was so excited for class he was ready to jump in all on his own! Thanks so much Isr Spokane Jeannie Pearson for everything!! Always a pleasure catching up with you! We appreciate you and all you do for your families. See you in six months!!

  • Ps.. friends. if you have a lil one I highly recommend ISR! It has been an amazing experience and we are so thankful we did it!

  • Jeannie Pearson is awesome. My kids love her and they are great swimmers because of her. I'm so grateful they are safe around the lake and pools and they enjoy the water at such as early age. I recommend ISR to all my friends. There is always some crying and some parents can't handle that. But even as an adult, learning new skills is hard. The kids work hard and they are rewarded with life-saving skills that are fun to use! -Whitney

  • Words can not adequately describe what ISR and our instructor Jeannie Pearson have done for my daughters. The girls both went from having no skills in the water to floating and swimming with confidence. I am utterly amazed every day with their progress. Jeannie has been like a second Grandma to them. She has encouraged the girls, reassured them of their safety and loved them. We are so thankful. Carrie J

  • Jeannie Pearson in Spokane WA is amazing!!! It’s our third year doing ISR and she has given us so much confidence and most importantly built incredible swimming skills in our kiddo. She is kind yet firm, knows just how to treat each child, and is extremely effective teaching them all in just ten minutes a day. Jeannie is great to communicate with, fun to be around and just an all over goal delight! We love Miss Jeannie and ISR! Sue

  • I feel so blessed to have found ISR and how well my children have learned what to do in only 3 weeks. It truly is a sense of relief. I love how Jeannine is so calm and assertive of each child she is teaching. My daughter who is five would have never been so confident now 3 weeks ago if it wasn’t for ISR and Miss Jeannine. Jeanine is amazing with infants and teaching my daughter to float on her back, knowing when to swim off the side of the pool and to her safe spot. It truly is amazing to watch every week the huge strides my kids have made. Even the difference in my eight month old is life changing. We will be doing refresher lessons next year and the year after that and the year after that. Kaycee G

  • My two 4-year-old girls learned more in the first week of ISR lessons than they did from years of conventional swim lessons. The lessons are so much more intentional and cater to the specific needs of each child. Although some of my girls' advancement is a result of the way in which ISR lessons are structured, I must attribute most of their success to Jeannie and her firm yet loving style of teaching. The lessons are intense and have potential to be stressful for both the student and parent, yet Jeannie makes them enjoyable. Also, I was expecting the ISR lessons with my 1-year-old to be difficult to observe because of the level of intensity I knew he'd undergo, but Jeannie's calmness, intentionality and professionalism puts me at ease. I know he is in good hands and I have been amazed at the amount of progress he has made in such a short amount of time.

  • Jeannie Pearson has been absolutely wonderful to work with! She is knowledgeable, kind, caring, fun and most importantly serious about water safety! She has helped Baker (and us) learn so much the last 6 weeks. Natalie W

  • We loved our ISR lessons and having Jeannie as Maddie's instructor. It was a big commitment to have lessons every day, but the outcome was well worth it. Jeannie was great with Maddie and had great skill in connecting with Maddie and building her swimming and survival techniques.

  • We are so pleased with Juliette's swimming skills and progression through the ISR classes. Her comfort level and confidence in the water continue to improve and she LOVES swimming with Jeannie. When her lesson is over, she tries to get back in the pool for more swimming with her. We know Jeannie loves what she does, it shows with every child she swims. Thank you Jeannie! We love you!!! Manda & Jeff J

  • Jeannie Pearson did an amazing job with Our daughter. She will be taking this course again in the spring along with her little brother. It is such a comfort knowing if she fell in she could float until someone got to her. I feel this is a must for parents with little ones! She is highly recommended!! Jennifer J

  • This is our second set of lessons with Jeannie. we are trying to get all 3 kids back with her in for a winter refresher course. She is articulate, patient, kind, gives parents a clear picture of how things will go and makes the kids respect her AND the water immediately. We will absolutely take lessons from her again!

  • I tell anyone who will listen about ISR, I am so thankful for these lessons. I am also so thankful for our instructor Jeannie Pearson who is so patient and such a nice person. I always look forward to refreshers and both of my kids love swimming now and people are always impressed with their swimming skills and life saving skills they have learned from Jeannie. Niké J

  • Jeannie Pearson is such an amazing ISR instructor. She is so patient and her techniques are effective. She has taught both of our kids how to save themselves and has helped our oldest to love the water and swimming, I’m sure our youngest will also love the water thanks to her. We are so thankful for her and recommend her to any and everyone we can.

  • Overall we are very satisfied with everything, Jeannie Pearson has been great to work with. She has been very communicative during Madison's sessions as to her progress and learning style as well as other times with in-climate weather and such. Joni B

  • Jeannie Pearson is an amazing instructor! Her care and commitment shine through in every class and every interaction and communication we receive from her. She makes the seriousness of water safety and survival fun and less intimidating. We are very grateful that she is our ISR instructor. Mandy D

  • It was incredibly impressive to watch our son and even those younger, rise back up above the water and float. A parent can only imagine their child doing that while waiting to be rescued. Travis B

  • Jeannie is very good about answering any questions and is very good with kids.

  • Jeannie Pearson was able to get my child to float on his back when I didn't think it was going to happen. She was firm with him when he needed authority yet playful enough that he enjoyed it and wanted to keep coming back.

  • Great instructor who is awesome with children. Very patient.

  • We love Jeannie Pearson. Our daughter asks to go swimming with her every morning.

  • So far it has been great! It is incredible to see Eli learn so fast. He cries the whole time during the lesson but then in the bath he will lay on his stomach and flip over to his back and clap and laugh because he is so proud himself. So we know he is learning and enjoys floating even though he cries during the lesson. Ashley

  • Jeannie Pearson has been great so far. I’m grateful to have her as my son’s instructor.

  • Miss Jeannie has won my son’s trust and he has improved from 1st week so much. A long road to go but I am confident Miss Jeannie will get him where he’ll be safe around the pool! Thank you Sarina R

  • We love Miss Jeannie Pearson. She has been apart of our family for 5 years given my daughter has gone through the ISR since she was 7 months. Kayla M

  • This is our 2nd time doing lessons with Jeannie. She is beyond amazing. We love her patience, knowledge and skills Raelena M

  • Jeannie Pearson is a wonderful instructor. She is so amazing and does a wonderful job with my child.

  • Words can’t describe just how thankful I am for Ms. Jeannie. My 4 year old and 1 year old absolutely adore her but it’s not a surprise because she is so encouraging with the kids. It’s such peace of mind to know my babies are being taught to be safe in the water. Ms. Jeannie has a passion for teaching kids to be safe in the water and it shows. I truly can’t recommend her enough. I promise you, ISR lessons will be one of if not the best decision you will make for your child.

  • First set of lessons with Ms. Jeannie for a refresher for my 3 yr old. She was wonderful! 2 weeks was all my little Hannah needed to get her float and swim back. Thank you, Jeannie and ISR!!!! Anne E

  • I was very pleased with how quickly my son progressed in lessons. Jeannie did a great job earning his trust and he went from screaming the entire lesson to looking forward to it and jumping right in. I feel so much better now that he has these skills.

  • Jeannie Pearson is wonderful with the kids, respectful of parents and the pool she is in. I can't say enough good things about the ISR program and in turn Jeannie.

  • We are so grateful for the work Jeannie does, and everything she's done for our family. I refer her to everyone I know with small children.

  • I registered both of my children for ISR refreshers and was so happy with the outcomes from each. My older child is swimming confidently across the pool, and knowing her boundaries and comfort level in the pool. My younger child is also able to swim float swim with some support but has overall improved his skills from last year. Natalie G

  • Best decision I've ever made for my son!
