It all depends on the facility and instructor. All instructors at an actual
club like the YMCA should have some type of certification or licensing and
some folks have multiple certifications-licenses in teaching specialized
areas like infants. If you're interested, I would call around and ask what
backgrounds and licensing the instructors have.

Do swimming instructors go through any training about how to teach swimming,
or how to teach kids? A lot of them seem quite young to me.
