Bella
Pardue
First Year Instructor
Hello! My name is Bella Pardue
I am currently a junior at Lumpkin County High School.
Before joining Swim Warriors, I coached both soccer and competitive swimming, and I have been a certified lifeguard for the past two years. I hold certifications in CPR, AED, and First Aid for both adults and children, as well as a lifeguard certification through the American Red Cross.
​
I have extensive experience working with children with special needs through volunteering in specialized classrooms at my school and participating in a variety of inclusive activities. My experience includes working with children with autism, Down syndrome, and visual impairments.
​
Sports have always been a big part of my life—particularly soccer and swimming. I played soccer for 13 years and competed in swimming for 3 to 4 years. Through these activities, I’ve had the opportunity to coach and mentor children of all ages, which has been incredibly rewarding.
​
My passion for working with kids and my belief in the importance of water safety are what drew me to Swim Warriors. I strongly believe that every child should learn how to be safe and confident in the water. I’m so excited to help your child grow and develop these essential life skills!
"My biggest advice to parents is to stay consistent with lessons. Consistency is key towards building your swimmers confidence and skills in the water in order to make each lesson feel more natural and safe! Even if the first few lessons come with some tears it’s important to keep moving forward and trust the process!"
