Booking lifeguards cannot be taken over the phone; the company needs the event date, start time, end time, address, and number of swimmers. Private swim lessons can be private or semiprivate, and semiprivate swimmers should be close to the same swim abilities. The site says children under age four cry the first couple of times during swim lessons. For adult swim lessons, swimmers should have goggles, a workout bathing suit, and water. Lessons for levels 1 and 2 focus on becoming water safe.
