⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We absolutely love this swim school! Both of my sons have grown so much in confidence and skill since starting here. The instructors are patient, encouraging, and truly care about each child’s progress. It’s such a joy to watch my boys not only become stronger swimmers but also have so much fun doing it. We’re so grateful for the positive, safe, and supportive environment this swim school provides — highly recommend to any family looking to build strong, happy swimmers!

Goldfish Swim School is absolutely amazing! The facility is bright, clean, and welcoming, and the staff are incredible. My son has always had anxiety around water, but his instructor, CC, has been nothing short of wonderful. She’s patient, supportive, and truly knows how to connect with kids. In just a short time, I’ve seen such a big change in his confidence and comfort level in the water. We’ve tried other places and nothing comes close to the experience we’ve had here. Highly recommend for any family looking for swim lessons!

We have nothing but wonderful things to say about our kids having swim lessons at Goldfish over the past 1.5 years. We started with a kid who was not a fan of the water and now he very much looks forward to lessons! Learning how to swim takes consistency and our son had a dedicated coach who worked with him for over a year to get comfortable in the water. Special shout out to coach Zion for all of the work you put in week after week to help get our son comfortable. Some days had tears, some days had giggles but all that work helped him to one day put it all together. From Lee at the front desk, to Alyssa as a deck supervisor to the many instructors (including Valentina, CC and Matt who have been working with our youngest) we are so grateful this staff is helping our kids learn this life saving skill of swimming but also you are teaching them confidence in themselves which is a talent that they will carry with them even beyond the pool. If you are thinking of enrolling your child in swim lessons we feel you need to look no further. Goldfish has a ton of staff (lots of eyes on your kid in the water) and the fun Tiki theme is bright and cheerful. Check it out! :)

We've been really impressed with Goldfish Swim School and the experience so far. The instructors are incredibly patient and encouraging, which has helped build our son’s confidence in the water. We also love the structure of the lessons, consistent, well-paced, and always focused on safety and skill-building. The positive, energetic atmosphere makes it a place he genuinely looks forward to every week.

We came to Goldfish unsure our child was going to be able to continue swimming due to huge setbacks with our previous swim school. They had suddenly become anxious, and lessons there were horrible for all of us. The moment we called we knew we'd be in good hands. Lee, who works the front desk, was encouraging and upbeat (as he always is). Doing a trial turned out to be one of the best decisions we made last year. Our kiddo was hesitant, because of that they were given extra attention, kindness and love. You can tell the employees like working here and are putting love into lessons. We wound up having a fantastic time and its a highlight of every week. Our swim skills are flourishing. On top of all of that magic. They have a beautiful facility. The pool is warm, there's toys to play with beforehand, stickers and tattoos, and my toddler loves to greet the fish. And any time we have changed teachers we have transitioned smoothly because every teacher fills their lesson with fun. My family welcomed our second child and they had a bumpy start. The staff checked in and supported us and now that our whole family comes they always offer extra hands when we need them. I hope any parents looking to start swim, or make a change, consider this facility.
