Your Child's Survival is our First Priority
We look forward to working with lots of little ones and their parents, as we strive to make the world a safer place for all.

We are very excited to bring this unique and much needed program to the Sacramento Area. With ten years of operation in the Bay Area, we have graduated over 500 infants and toddlers in the Survival Back Float and we have taught regular swim lessons as well, during the spring and summer months. Our techniques include the use of plenty of TLC, lots of positive reinforcement and continual verbal reassurance. We work slowly with patient, loving gentleness, as we gradually guide little ones through a sequence of steps, teaching them to trust us and in turn trust themselves. They are the ones doing the work we are their facilitators in this incredible Survival Back Float journey.

We would love to hear from you. Please fill out the contact form below and a member of our staff will return your email just as soon as we can.

I don’t have a pool, spa or boat, and I never leave my child alone.
Why should I give my child survival float lessons?

 A decision to float my children ~ from my personal experience~

Deborah Toohey
There continues to be the ongoing debate about whether to teach back float to infants and toddlers or whether to teach water adjustment/play or “underwater swimming.” At WALLYPOGS our belief is that back float skills should be taught prior to introduction of fun and games.Our graduates learn to respect the water and how to successfully get to a safe back float position, before they learn to play in it. Play is naturally and easily integrated into the process once a child has mastered the survival float skill. We strive for a healthy balance of understanding and fun. Drowning is a preventable accident. Our goal is to help parents come to an informed and educated decision about their child’s safety and early water experience.
