Background
Daughter Elaine Jansen van Rensburg and mom Cheryl Botha opened this branch in August 2022. It is the first Kiddies Aqua franchised outlet outside the borders of South Africa. Elaine has diplomas in Business-, Human Resources- and Project Management and recently moved to Namibia with husband Willem (a professional pilot). Cheryl is a registered nurse with nearly forty years experience in nursing and managerial healthcare in mostly industry-leading private hospitals in South Africa. Both Elaine and Cheryl are fully qualified and licensed instructors in the Self-Rescue Water Safety Programme for Babies (Baby Floating). They completed 400+ hours of training with Lizette Botha (Franchisor) in the water in this very specialized- and unique method. Lizette is one of the world’s leading Baby Floating Specialists, with more than 500x babies and 500x toddlers that she taught to swim and to be water safe.
Both Elaine and Cheryl also completed a Learn-to-Swim Instructor Programme for Toddlers and Adults through Kiddies Aqua, has valid CPR-, First Aid- and Police Clearance Certificates. It is also required from them to attend in-house refresher training regularly to keep up with the high standards of the Kiddies Aqua brand. Elaine and Cheryl see the Baby Floating- and Learn-to-Swim Programmes as very complementary to each other, where these young children can learn so a good deal of amazing water safety- and swimming skills. By the time their swimmers go to “big school” they can already swim all four basic strokes of swimming. Both Elaine’s own children (Imke and Anja) completed the Baby Floating Course as young infants and are already like fish in the water.
Both Elaine and Cheryl have got a lovely-, natural- and soft touch with the babies and toddlers and shows great compassion and competence with these little ones. They are true students of the sport and are always ready and willing to further enhance their skills and knowledge in this unique self-rescue and lifesaving methods for infants and toddlers. They are already making a huge difference in the community of Otjiwarongo and its surrounds.
