About Cathy

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi! My name is Catherine and I've been a swim instructor for over 3 years teaching all ages and skill levels. I offer private swim lessons in your home and specialize in working with children on the autism spectrum and children with special needs. I am Adaptive Swim Certified, have completed 40 hours of RBT training, and currently work as a respite caregiver for kids on the spectrum. I'm also a nanny, so I have a lot of experience creating a safe, patient, and fun environment for children. I am CPR certified, lifeguard certified, and passionate about helping every swimmer build confidence and safety in the water at their own pace. Whether your child is just starting out or needs extra support and individualized teaching, I would love to help! Feel free to message me for more information about private in-home lessons, availability, and pricing!
