About me
Hi! I’m Mikaela, founder of Kids in the Water. My journey from being a competitive swimmer and a swimming instructor, to being a mother teaching my three young children to swim, has given me a great love for water activities. I have so many fun activities, helpful recommendations and life saving tips that I can't wait to share with you. I hope you will follow along so that together we can keep our kids safe and happy in the water.

I've created this resource to help busy parents teach their own kids how to swim.
