We used to go to Hubbard and while the instructors were excellent, the classes were very full and it was almost impossible to make-up classes. There also did not feel like there was much advancement or feedback. We moved over to aqua-tots at the recommendation of a friend who had been taking her son there for years and both kids adapted really well. Classes are small, so the instructors knew the kids, they were consistent in the program even if there was a change in the instructor, and both my kids have made marked improvement in the 7 months we have been there, always with feedback after class.

My children have been attending this aquatots location for almost a year now. The staff here is amazing and has been so friendly. In the beginning my children were very apprehensive. All of the staff including the deck manager, wonderful ladies at the front desk and coaches wasted no time stepping in to help in anyway they can. My kids are very comfortable with all the coaches and now look forward to coming every week. They have made tremendous progress and I feel much better about their water safety skills now. Super glad I chose to put my kids in. It’s now a staple activity for us twice a week. No complaints💕

This place was a wonderful place for my son to learn to swim. My son was very scared of the pool due to falling in with his tricycle when he was younger and their instructors were patient, positive and fun. We had tried private lessons before but nothing compared to the experience we had at this aqua tots. My son now loves swimming. Thank you!!!

Our son has been taking lessons here since he was a little under 2.5 years old and he’s loved it from the beginning. He’s made great progress that has made us feel confident with him around pools. He’s loved all his coaches, and even though there’s been a lot of changes the new coaches have been consistently great! The front desk staff is friendly and help with any and all questions.

Aqua-tots has been a great place for my daughter to excel. She has had amazing swim instructors who really care. Tara and Cindy at the front desk are always accommodating with our needs and helpful when our schedule changes. I'd definitely recommend joining this community!
