About the Program
Little Otters ISR is Lena Lincoln's survival swim program in Northwest Las Vegas. She teaches the Infant Swimming Resource (ISR) method, which is different from a splash-and-play class. The goal is for a baby or toddler who ends up in the water to roll onto their back, float and breathe until an adult gets there.
Lessons are one-on-one and short: 10 minutes a day, Monday through Friday, for about 6 to 8 weeks. Children can start as young as 6 months. Walking toddlers also learn to swim to the steps or wall, then flip over to rest. Once a child has the skills, they practice them in clothes.
That daily schedule is the big commitment, so look at your calendar before you sign up. Plan for some fussing the first few days, which the FAQ says is common. You can stay and watch. Registration asks for your child's medical and developmental history. Request lessons through the site to get tuition and the pool location.

First Visit Guide
What most swim schools expect. Confirm the details with Little Otters ISR before you go.
What to bring
- Swimsuit, worn under regular clothes so changing goes faster
- Towel and a full set of dry clothes
- Swim diaper if your child isn't potty trained yet. Many schools want two layers, so ask.
- Hair tie or swim cap for long hair
- Goggles only if the school says yes. A lot of them teach beginners without goggles on purpose, so kids get used to water on their face.
Before you go
- Get there 10 to 15 minutes early for check-in and the changing room shuffle.
- Keep snacks light and at least 30 minutes before water time.
- Ask where parents wait. Some schools have viewing windows, some want you on the deck for baby classes.
The first visit
The first lesson usually starts with a quick skill check so the teacher can place your child in the right level. Lesson one is about getting comfortable, not swimming laps. Indoor pools run all year here, which matters when it's 105 outside in July.
For sensory-sensitive kids
Pools echo and they're loud. Ask which lesson times are quietest, and whether you can stop by just to watch a class before your child's first one.
