This school and its staff are all fantastic. Our son started his first ever swim classes here at age 2.5, as we were stationed overseas for several years (where he was born). It was a rough start for him, not being a fan of water being poured on him, floating on his back, going under water, etc. In time, several different teachers helped us to change that. They have been patient, friendly, and positive (so important for an upset toddler and parents feeling defeated). The schedule has been very flexible, as my husband and I took turns taking our son on weekdays and weekends too. Our son loves seeing the fish tank before class as well as picking out a snack afterwards. Even the desk receptionists are welcoming and friendly. Recently, my husband received military orders for a mandatory assignment in Florida, so our family relocated for several months and we will return next month. We had several unexpected charges from the school, come to find out they were for tuition. I was unaware that we needed to complete a 30 day withdrawal notice until we returned, which was in the online disclosures I neglected to notice. The manager made it right and we couldn’t be more happy as a family on one income. We are excited to have our son return next month and continue building his confidence in the water, along with his baby brother in the near future. Thanks for the excellent, thorough customer service. Keep up the great work!

Great visit today with the Helotes Chamber. Goldfish could not have been more welcoming. This is where the cool kids come to learn a lifelong skill.

We had an absolutely amazing experience at Goldfish Swim School! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly thoughtful, welcoming, and professional. They went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly for our son's birthday party. Every detail was taken care of, and we truly felt like we were in good hands. The team created such a fun and stress-free environment. not just for the kids, but for the parents too! Our son had the best birthday ever, and we’re so grateful to the staff for making it such a special day. We will definitely be coming back, and we highly recommend Goldfish Swim School to anyone looking for an unforgettable party experience. It was worth every penny. Thank you again for everything you’ve done for our family!

Love this school! Highly recommend, the staff is very friendly and each swim coach has so much patience. When starting swim lessons after only 4 lessons I noticed a huge difference in my daughter's confidence in the water. She absolutely loves coming to class and showing off all that she has learned! A bonus is the water safety and limited kids per swim coach each class each child get that one on one 💕
