Ignore her. She sounds like she's not comfortable in the water herself, and she's projecting her own fears not only on her own children, but on everyone around her.
There's a reason why there's a whole movement to teach children to swim as infants. Children are naturally capable of swimming at birth. It's because we generally wait to introduce them to water that we have to teach them to swim. If your daughter is confident and capable, don't let this wench's fears impact you or your family.

That lady needs to keep her thoughts inside her head. She doesn't make sense. Was she making her kid do the lessons on the pool deck instead of in the pool? Because you're not supposed to go in the water for swim lessons... Laugh her off and ignore.
