Give Your Child the Gift of Water Confidence

Fort Lauderdale's Trusted Private Lessons for Babies & Toddlers

🐣 Our Initial 6-Week Program

As the essential first step in your child's water safety journey, this foundational course builds real water confidence and self-reliance through gentle, consistent, private 1-on-1 instruction. Your child will master the Swim-Float-Swim sequence in focused 10-minute sessions, Monday through Friday, over 6 weeks. Short daily lessons are intentional — they work with your child's attention span and physical stamina for faster, safer progress. Designed for ages 12 months and up.

🔁 Refresher Course

As children grow, their water skills need to grow with them. This 2-week tune-up is designed exclusively for our returning families — 10-minute sessions, Monday through Friday — to rebuild confidence after a break, refine technique for their growing bodies, and keep their water safety skills sharp and second nature. Because staying safe in the water isn't a one-time achievement, it's an ongoing practice.

🧘 Maintenance Packages

Water safety is a journey, not a destination. Our maintenance packages are designed exclusively for returning families to keep their skills sharp and confidence strong as they grow. Choose from packages of 15, 20, or 25 sessions — each a focused 20-minute class, Monday through Friday, scheduled around your family's availability. Consistent practice is what turns water safety skills into second nature — and that's what gives you real peace of mind.

Our Programs

Our Proven Path to Water Safety

Whether it's their first time in the pool or they're refining their skills, our programs are designed to build layers of safety and confidence at every stage of their journey.

⏱️ The 10-Minute Formula

We maximize your child's focus and physical stamina. Short, high-intensity private daily sessions prevent fatigue, accelerate muscle memory, and build the water confidence that sticks — because consistent, focused practice is how real skills are built.

🔄 Daily Consistency

Water skills become second-nature through repetition. By practicing Monday through Friday, we rapidly reinforce the neurological pathways that make confident, capable movement in the water feel natural and automatic.

Trust is our foundation. We read your child's unique emotional cues and customize our gentle pacing accordingly — meeting them exactly where they are, and guiding them toward quiet, absolute confidence in the water.

Meet Gigi’s Guppies:
Trusted Infant Swim Expert in Fort Lauderdale

Hi, I'm Gina Nusret, the founder of Gigi's Guppies.

For over 20 years, my passion has been caring for children. That experience has shown me that one of the greatest gifts we can give a child—and their parents—is confidence. That's why I built my infant swim program on a foundation of safety, connection, and trust.

My approach is simple: I get to know your child first. By building a genuine connection, we create a positive and effective learning environment. Whether you're starting a brand new journey in the water or just need a refresher, my goal is to provide you with the peace of mind that comes from knowing your little one is capable and confident.

Together, we can help your family feel more at ease around the water.

A Focus on Trust
& Comfort

Proven
Swim-Float-Swim Method

Gina is trained in the Swim-Float-Swim technique — a foundational pillar of water safety instruction. This method teaches children to swim to a surface, roll to their back to float and breathe, then continue swimming to safety. It's not just a skill, it's the confidence to know what to do in the water.

Before a single lesson begins, Gina makes it her priority to connect with your child. She understands that learning from a stranger can feel overwhelming for little ones — so she takes the time to build a genuine bond with both the child and the family. When a child feels safe, they learn. That foundation of trust is what makes everything else possible.

Personalized Attention

No two children learn the same way — and Gina never treats them like they do. As she builds her bond with each child, she learns their unique cues, pace, and comfort level. She knows when to push forward and when to slow down, and she keeps parents informed every step of the way. Every lesson is tailored, intentional, and built around your child.

Let's Get Started

Give your child the gift of water confidence and yourself the ultimate peace of mind. Let’s build a foundation of safety, confidence, and trust that lasts a lifetime.
