Lakeside ISR Kristina Richie

Meet Kristina Richie, your Certified ISR Instructor, who offers life-saving swim lessons right here in the Nido community! Kristina and her husband, Luke, have called Mt. Juliet home since 2014, where they’ve built a life with their three little redheads: Parker, Preston, and Piper. Their family loves spending time on the water—boating, wake surfing, and enjoying peaceful views of Old Hickory Lake from their backyard.

Before becoming an ISR instructor, Kristina was a classroom teacher and managed education programs for a symphony orchestra. She holds a Bachelor’s in Education from Miami (Ohio) University and a Master’s from the University of Chicago, with her teaching career starting in 2007. Teaching has always been her passion, and she’s excited to share critical water safety and Self-Rescue® skills with the little ones in our community.

Kristina’s ISR journey began with her own children, prioritizing water safety while living near a lake and having a backyard pool. She is deeply grateful for the joy and safety ISR brought to her family and loves empowering children with these life-saving skills. We are thrilled to have Kristina as part of the Nido family!
