Guest guest Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 My son (4 yrs. old) loves the water!!!!! He is so happy when we take him swimming at the rec center. I have been looking for a swim instructor to work with him for 2 years now and haven't found anyone who works with children with autism. Does anyone know anyone?????? (We live in the Solon area.)

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 , I will check with this lifeguard I know from the YMCA at Hillcrest....She is super nice and has worked with spec needs children...and although she works there full time, she may be interested to do extra work for an hour or so every week. I will check with her when I see her....possibly by the end of the week....will let you know. LBarano710@... wrote: My son (4 yrs. old) loves the water!!!!!

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 At Lifeworks Fitness Center in Hudson, there is a class called Splash -- it's specifically for special needs kids and taught by a lady named Beth Lattamie (sp?). I know the next round of classes begins on Feb. 11th -- I'm not sure if the classes are full yet, but I'll ask my husband for the contact information, as he is the one who takes our boys. Or, you may be able to call Lifeworks in Hudson and ask them. --Suzanne -----Original Message----- From: LBarano710@...

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Okay, all -- Here's the information from my husband, since he's the one who takes our boys. We're not sure if the winter session is filled, but they'll have more sessions -- even in the summer. Here's the flyer from the teacher: --Suzanne SWIM LESSONS FOR CHILDREN AND TEENS WITH DISABILITIES Happy Holidays SPLASH FANS!! WINTER SPLASH 2007 WILL START ON FEBRUARY 11th AND RUN FOR 6 WEEKS. The sessions will run for a half hour on Sundays somewhere between 2-6PM. Payment should be made on January 17th (orientation meeting) and then you can leave after paying (no need to hear what you have heard before about the overall program). I also do not need to reassess your child/teen. Please call me on my voice message (even if you have emailed me). I like to have a double "receipt" (electronically and verbally) that you are interested in signing up. I will be sending out a formal flyer about the SPLASH program to those of you who are administrators and are copied on this email. Sorry if you received this email more than once. Thanks, Beth Lattime Director of SPLASH 330-655-2377 #156 (all answers to your unanswered questions are probably revealed on my long winded voice message) -----Original Message----- From: SBShaft@...

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 This is even available for preschoolers. I know that my youngest boy began when he was 4 years old. --Suzanne -----Original Message----- From: egerpatt@...
