About South Shore Infant Aquatics
Our Mission Is Simple: Give your child the confidence to survive and the skills to thrive in the water.
Here's What South Shore Infant Aquatics is All About...
If you’ve ever worried about the thought of your child near water—whether it’s at a backyard pool, the beach, or even bath time—knowing they have the skills to self-rescue changes everything.
The water is no longer the constant fear or a potential life-changing danger that keeps you up at night. It becomes a safer, more enjoyable place - for them and for you.
If that’s what you’re looking for… this might be one of the most important pages you’ll ever read.
Hi, my name is Candice Schloesser, Owner of South Shore Infant Aquatics . A few years ago, I lived every parent’s worst nightmare…
I watched my 3-year-old excited about swimming... jump headfirst into the pool... without his floaties.
You never think it’ll happen to you — until it does.
If I had turned around, walked inside, or simply checked my phone... it would’ve been too late.
Drowning happens in under 20 seconds. And 88% of the time, an adult is right there when it happens (according to the National Drowning Prevention Alliance).
That’s why it’s the #1 cause of accidental death in kids under 4 — more than car crashes, burns, or even choking.
I got lucky. So many parents don’t....
That’s exactly why we started South Shore Infant Aquatics Swim School in League City, TX — so you don’t have to rely on luck.
We teach the Infant Aquatics® Self-Rescue Survival Swim Program — a proven, child-centered approach that teaches kids life-saving swim and float skills… fast.
This isn’t just swim lessons.
It’s water safety that lasts a lifetime — and peace of mind you can’t put a price on.
Our 7-Week Mastery Guarantee
One Price. Guaranteed Results. No Surprise Fees.
Our program is designed to help your child master their survival swim skills in just 7 weeks, as long as you attend all scheduled lessons on time.
If your child masters the skills ahead of schedule, we’ll convert their remaining lessons into free progression lessons — to keep building confidence, coordination, and a love of the water.
And in the rare case more time is needed (and you’ve followed all program guidelines) we’ll include an 8th week of lessons at no additional cost to help your child finish strong.
Why We Started South Shore Infant Aquatics — And Why It’s the Smarter, Safer Choice
After our own scare in the water, we knew one thing for sure: We didn’t just want swim lessons.
We wanted results. We wanted peace of mind.
And we wanted to get there without traumatizing our child in the process.
Before we opened South Shore Infant Aquatics, we’d enrolled our kids in one of the well-known survival swim programs. Some instructors were incredible — warm, steady, and effective. But others… not so much.
One instructor actually yelled at our 11 month old for crying. And every time we would be close to being done... It was one more week. And one more payment.
So we never went back.
Sure... it worked… but it never felt good.
And it turns out... we weren’t the only ones with that story.
So we started looking for something better.
Most survival swim programs rely on pressure, repetition, and one-size-fits-all methods. They teach important skills — no doubt — but often at a cost: rushed lessons, stressed parents, and kids who learn to fear the water.
On the other end of the spectrum, traditional lessons stretched on for years, costing families thousands — all without ever making kids truly water-safe. Blowing bubbles and playing with kickboards doesn’t save lives.
We wanted something different.
And that’s exactly what we found with Infant Aquatics®
Infant Aquatics® takes everything that works about survival swim — and makes it better.
It’s grounded in child development. It’s gentle, play-based, and emotionally safe.
It’s taught by instructors who complete over 100 hours of hands-on, in-the-water training — including coursework in psychology, safety, and child development.
Here, every lesson is built around your child’s unique personality.
We build trust first. Then float. Then swim.
And we often start by inviting parents into the water to help their little ones feel safe from day one.
No yelling. No fear. No forcing kids to “push through it.”
Just trust, play, and progress — at your child’s pace.
And still — it works. In fact, it works faster.
Most kids learn to float, swim, breathe, and get to safety in just 7 weeks (and get 4 free progression lessons when they finish early).
Fully clothed. Without floaties. Without fear.
They gain the confidence to handle real-world water emergencies.
You gain the peace of mind to finally breathe easy around the pool.
And because they’re having fun, those skills stick.
That’s why we chose Infant Aquatics®.
That’s why we teach it.
And that’s why we believe it’s the single best decision you can make for your child’s safety — and their love for the water.
