Episode 78
Teaching our children to swim is a vital part of preparing our children for the wider world, but for neurodivergent children it can be an uphill struggle. How can we make the world of water can be friendly and safe for children who don't fit the typical mould?
This week we are joined Nicole Martin from Core Aquatics who has dedicated her career to create and teach inclusive swimming programs that cater to neurodiverse children. We talk about how such initiatives can drastically reduce the worrying statistics of drowning in children with autism, what an autism-friendly swimming pool looks like, candid advice on easing kids into the water, overcoming fears, building confidence, and discovering joy.
Nicole's story is one of adaptation and innovation, providing a beacon of hope for parents seeking the right swimming lessons for their unique little ones. We underscore the value of teaching about different water bodies, the creation of muscle memory for safety maneuvers, and how these skills go beyond the pool to oceans and lakes.
