This is one of the best swim schools in the area. Before coming here, we have tried another school and did not love our experience. I love Kids First swim school for its small class size, flexibility, and most importantly, the swim instructors. I think this is our 5th year with the swim school and both of my kids love this place. They have many great instructors ready to teach your children the skills necessary to learn how to swim, whether it’s for fun, safety, or making the swim team. Sherri and her team are amazing. They care about the children and will always prioritize their safety in the water. Special thanks to the past and present instructors that we love: Olivia, Danielle, Ace, Lauren, David, Liz, Sarah, and of course, Ms. Sherri herself.

THE BEST SWIM SCHOOL EVER!! They are very different from other swim schools. They have amazing methods of teaching. They really teach kids to be independent and keep kids safe at the same time while learning and having so much fun. Chino (My kiddo) kept on telling me how much fun he had every after swim lessons. Shout out to Galen my kid's swim coach. Galen is phenomenal! Never again will I search for a different swim school.

Great experience! Natalie, Lauren and Sherri are awesome instructors and have been very patient with my 2.5 year old. It has been great watching his progress. Facilities are very nice, can't recommend enough.

I have never been more impressed than I have with the swim school at kids first. They are extremely professional but personable. Throughout all of COVID, they have been careful and flexible. My boys have learned so much and continue to learn every session. I highly recommend swim school! P

We have been taking our son to Hubbard Family Swim School (HFSS) since he was 2.5 months old (he’s now 18.5 months). We absolutely love HFSS! The facilities are clean, the staff is super friendly, and our son enjoys the year-round heated pool! I would recommend HFSS to anyone!!!
