SWIM PARENT ACADEMY

You don’t have to figure this out alone., I built Swim Parent Academy to give parents clear guidance and practical tools to support them on their family's swim journey. Everything comes from the heart and is based on decades of personal experience working with parents at every stage of the process. There are even hand crafted GPTs for specific areas of concern that give you 24/7 access to real answers and real support.

WHY SWIM PARENT ACADEMY EXISTS

If you’ve ever sat in the stands at a meet and thought, “Am I doing this right?” — you’re not alone.Being a swim parent is one of the most rewarding — and at times overwhelming — roles you’ll ever take on.
There’s no handbook. No one teaches you how to pack the right food, navigate long weekends, or support your swimmer after a tough race.
Swim Parent Academy exists to give parents clarity, confidence, and a framework — so home becomes a place of support, not stress.

Why Not Just Use ChatGPT?

Because generic AI doesn’t understand the swim world. It guesses. It blends fitness myths with swim advice — and can confidently give answers that are wrong for developing athletes. Swim Parent Academy is different.Our Swim Parent GPT tools are trained on real coaching frameworks, swim-specific scenarios, and decades of experience — and designed specifically for parents.This isn’t generic artificial intelligence. It’s real intelligence and experience, delivered through smart tools that speak swim-parent language.We do not provide training plans or individualized coaching directives.
We support parents so they can better support their swimmer — in alignment with their coach.

Educational support for parents. Not training or coaching. Always defer to your swimmer’s coach.
