Step 3: What to pack for lessons
What to pack for lessons:
- Epipen (if your child is prescribed one)
- Thermometer to temp check your family prior to coming into lessons
- (Summer/Outdoor lessons) A small potty if you feel your child will need to use the restroom before or after lessons. We do not have access to a restroom.
- Plastic Bag for any trash you may produce during lessons.
- Sunglasses (if outdoors the pool area can be bright and HOT)
- 2 layers of swim diapers. Yes, TWO LAYERS. The outermost layer MUST be a REUSABLE swim diaper. The inner diaper can be disposable. You can use two reusable diapers each day, but not two disposable ones. The tight legs of the reusable are added security if there is a BM during lessons. You can purchase reusable swim diapers at Target, ISRstore.com or amazon. This is for ANY student who is 3 or younger OR has been potty trained for less than 6 months.
- 3 Layers of Towels. If you have a large thick towel, that can be doubled and still allows your child to rest comfortably on their left side that can create your two layers and the other towel can be used to dry them. This will save you the need to bring 3 towels.
- Wet bag for wet laundry and used diapers
- Clothes and diapers to change into after lessons
- A snack and drink for the car.
- Personal hand sanitizer (although I will have multiple bottles for use)

- ISR requires students to be fever (100.4 or above), vomiting, and/or diarrhea FREE for 48 hours.
- What if your child goes to the doctor for a sick visit? Please let us know ASAP. They will not be able to attend lessons until approval is given by the nursing team. An MLU will need to be completed as well.
- Students cannot attend lessons if they have received a vaccine within 12 hours of lessons. Please schedule vaccines around lessons.
- If a student misses 3 or more consecutive lessons due to illness a missed lesson update will need to be completed with the national ISR nursing team using the button below.
