This is the best place of employment if you are looking for a job. I was hired in late May and I'm…read moreterribly sad to be leaving to go back to school. Everyone was so welcoming and warm on my first day and helped me out when I needed it. The people here are wonderful to work with and I've created such meaningful friendships in these few short months. Our managers, Mary and Natalia, are the two most caring and helpful people you will ever meet. Their doors are always open if you have a quick question or need assistance with anything. The energy walking into work everyday was so high and it kept reminding me what a phenomenal place this is to work. You will never meet co-workers like them; these are the people who made coming into work everyday so enjoyable. If you enjoy working with kids this is the place to be. As a Swim Instructor you will find such joy in seeing a child progress throughout the weeks, and knowing that you were apart of that just makes it that much more enjoyable. If you want a place that is flexible with your hours they are always accommodating and will find times that will work for you. Hands down this is the best place that I've ever work.

I would not not recommend this swim School to anyone. The…read morewater is loaded with chemicals. The staff/ management is rude and not attentive. All around horrible experience. Find a better, more caring establishment for your little love bugs.

THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST MANAGED GYM OUT THERE! After being a Member for 6 years now, the General…read moreManager, in conjunction with the Lifetime Customer Relations employee, decided to have my Membership suspended for calling her out on how she does not enforce ALL the policies at this location! She is allowed to pick and choose which policy she enforces. When it comes to having kids hangout in the lifting areas or in bathrooms it's a total free for all. There are plenty of signs up that clearly state no gym bags in the lifting area but yet every other person you see has a bag on them. It literally feels like a High School upstairs with all the backpacks. And when I complained, she told me she is doing her best, and whenever I see the bags up there to tell her. When I did that, I was told I was trying too hard! Then they suspended my Membership because they do not want to have to enforce ALL of their own policies. There is literally only one entrance/exit and once you go upstairs you have to go back down in order to leave. Think about what people can bring in a big old duffle bag when no one is truly enforcing the bag policy. It's scary to even think about how unprofessional this club has been managed and the liabilities they have in front of them. The suspension of my Membership for asking them to enforce their own policies is discrimination. They are trying to silence Members instead of actually making change.

I've been a member of DGSRC for several years now. Yes, it's more expensive than some of the other…read moreoptions. But how much will you use it when it's so close by? Every summer we've swam at least 50 times, which means it works out to less than lunch out with at the kids each visit...and we spend our entire summer there. It's also super-close to my home (my son can bike there and meet his friends); we can bring our own healthy lunches and snacks; my kids have tons of friends who go there (so, instant playdates); and there are plenty of other activities to do as well (tennis, shuffleboard, gaga pit, sand volleyball). I'm often there with my kids but when I'm not, I love being able to enjoy the lower lap pool and adult-oriented area away from the larger pool upstairs. The swim lessons and swim team are great options for kids as well.

We have been members for 30+ years. Through the good times, the not so good times, and now the good…read moretimes are back!!. First, the pools, the staff, and the operations are all top notch. The manager, Brad, has many years experience on the premise and knows how to make it a comfortable experience for most everyone who visits. The board has done a great job of spending limited funds where they are most effective. The end result is just a nice place to spend a couple hours, or more, a couple of days, or more, a week. One of the new additions this year is D'Cappos providing food from the "snack" deck. The everyday provisions are fine and the add ons during the weekend are fantastic!! Jerry brings high end restaurant food to the little shack on the snack deck. Tonight I took Cavatelli with a light white garlic and fresh squash sauce and a delicious Bruchetta home. Can't do that at any other pool I've ever been to. Where did that come from?? The board made another good decision from my point of view. We are very glad we stuck it out over the years and we hope there are many good years to come. Paul & Ann Sassano

Note: This review covers swim lessons and a birthday party rental…read more Goldfish Swim School does a wonderful job of teaching kids how to swim. That's their bread and butter. But they also do a fantastic job at hosting parties. They are a top notch facility and staff. For swim lessons, they offer 25 min classes at no more than a 4:1 student:teacher ratio. The kids progress along at their own pace, leveling-up when they're ready (could be after one week, one month, or longer). No matter what, the environment is kept fun yet challenging. And the instructors are all very welcoming, accommodating, and encouraging to the kids. For parties, they do an absolutely wonderful job. For a total of two hours (~2/3 in water, 1/3 out) they are as engaged as you want/need them to be or not. After getting all kids safely into the water they ran them through some fun games and then let them swim for a good amount of time with full-access to all toys/floats. After drying off, the kids ate (food needs to be brought in) and had cupcakes (provided). All decorations, setup/cleanup, and goodie bags were provided. It really was a delightful experience that was driven home by the fantastic staff. We couldn't be happier with the swim instruction provided and the recent party we had here at Goldfish Swim School.

A wonderful, fun, fulfilling place to work. Goldfish has given me an outlet to be myself and feel…read morelike I am making a difference in my community. The managers Bryan, Josh, Jose, and Ashley are outstanding. The facility is clean and the pool is always warm. I'd recommend this workplace to anyone with swimming experience like myself, or if you enjoy working with children!

The manager and staff are great!…read more As a mom, there's nothing more comforting than seeing your child feel safe, supported, and celebrated--and that's exactly what we've found here. When we first started swim lessons, my kiddo was terrified of the water. I honestly wasn't sure how it would go. But thanks to the incredibly patient, kind, and skilled instructors, not only is my child no longer scared--they are absolutely thriving. What makes this place truly special is the family atmosphere. Everyone knows my kiddo by name, cheers them on, and makes them feel like they belong. It's not just swim lessons--it's a community that genuinely cares. We've gone from tears at the pool's edge to being asked daily if it's "swimming day" yet. I can't thank this team enough for helping my child grow in confidence and fall in love with swimming!

Instructors, called coaches, provide instruction and correction when needed to meet specific goals for each class level. When goals are met, the kids get patches and graduate to the next level. Bear Paddle also offers special clinics and camps during breaks from school. Pool is filled with warm salt water. Locker room has stalls for changing and showers are available. The Kid Wash also allows kids to rinse off before and after class in a fun way. There's an adjacent room with tables, and chairs, snack machines (I don't think they are working at this time), and kids' movies. Kids seem to like it.
