Seeking swim instructor for child with special needs

Hello. I'm seeking swimming lessons for my son with a private swim instructor who has experience in and is knowledgeable about teaching young children with special needs and who has access to a heated pool. Does anyone have a recommendation? 

Thank you!

Ohana Aquatics was great for us in this regard!

Patti’s swim school has been great for my 5 year old. It’s expensive, but has been worth it for us. My kiddo was paralyzed with fear 2 months ago and just passed level 1. They teach many students with special needs. 

We used Patti's Swim School for private lessons/heated pool for our kids when they were little and they offer lessons for special needs individuals. www.pattisswimschool.com

Good luck!

Harriet Plummer Aquatics in Lafayette. Heated year round. 20 min lessons with a private instructor (there are a handful of other kids around with their own respective instructors.) My special needs child loves it and is making slow but steady progress (after a year+ he can swim independently, tread water, even do the backstroke). I hope it works out for you!
