Sarah Dodge
My name is Sarah Dodge, and I am a Certified Infant Swimming Self- Rescuing Instructor. I have over 200 hours of hands-on in water training with babies 6 months and up. On top of that schooling, I have personally taught 1000's of children in Citrus County how to swim, self-rescuing skills, snorkel, and stroke development. This is my 15th year owning and operating PediAquatics. I have obtained the skills and confidence needed to teach your child how to independently swim face down in the water and then independently roll to their back to rest and float, then flip back over to swim. The sequence is known as "swim float swim". When the child is ready, they will also learn to swim above the water, dive, and snorkel.
Shellie Mitchell
My name is Shellie Mitchell. I am a mother and lifelong Citrus County resident with a strong passion for water. I've spent nearly 10 years as a snorkel instructor and master captain guiding commercial trips on our local rivers and gulf. My love for children led me to achieve my degree in early education and my certificate for infant swim/self-rescue. I have over 200 hours of hands on in water training with babies 6 months and up. I feel blessed to have the privilege of dedicating my life to the safety and wellbeing of children in and around the water.
