I am going to challenge the review left by Leilani who is clearly a disgruntled parent. Remember…read morefolks, there are always two sides of the story and I along with SO MANY people would defend Nikki. The experience and skills Nikki shares with students is unrivaled. Her reputation is known throughout that industry and she is an excellent instructor. Nikki and her program has been recognized countless times in newspaper and online articles! And she's taken on jobs and worked on animals that other vet tech's can only dream of! Don't let the skewed opinion of one determine your perspective of the program and its instructor. If you learned the details of the situation that this parent is so miffed about, you might see a clearer picture. And don't forget, teachers are there to do a job and enforce the rules. How much of that situation does Leilani's daughter own? Guess we'll never know... Sno-Isle is an awesome technical high school regardless of the negative opinions of a few. They get what they put into their education and most regret not taking full advantage of the opportunities while they were enrolled. I've heard feedback, first-hand from former students. Who am I you ask? I am a former student of the automotive program I now teach...at Sno-Isle TECH Skills Center!

My daughter has been dancing at this studio for several years now, and as she approaches her 9th…read morebirthday, her love for dance continues to grow. From the very beginning, everyone has been welcoming, supportive, and incredibly helpful. Mrs. Debbie, the owner, recently took time out of her busy schedule right before classes started to help my daughter get fitted for new ballet shoes. That level of personal attention and care says so much about the studio and the people who run it. My daughter loves her classes so much that she actually begged me to enroll her in an additional class! She looks forward to dance every week and has loved all of her teachers. Special shoutout to Miss Olivia, who has been wonderful and has helped make dance such a positive experience for her. We just finished another recital season, and every year I am blown away by the enthusiasm, dedication, and passion of the instructors. Watching the recital, it's easy to see how much work goes into preparing the dancers while still making the experience fun and encouraging. And honestly, anyone who has ever tried to teach a group of 4- and 5-year-olds anything can appreciate how impressive it is to see those young dancers smiling, having fun, and confidently performing on stage! What I appreciate most is that this studio has grown with my daughter. From her early classes as a little one to the dancer she is becoming today, she has always felt encouraged, supported, and excited to come back each week. We are so grateful to be part of this dance family and highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for a positive, nurturing environment for their child.

Between the short, ineffective lessons and the shady billing practices, you're better off taking your money somewhere else. There are plenty of schools that are more transparent, professional, and actually teach you something. Stay away.

While I enjoyed getting to take my daughter to swim classes, I ultimately stopped coming here after…read morea few months for the following reasons: 1. Hard to book. I had to call in to book each session with a representative on the phone. There were a number of times that there was a policy that prevented or interfered with our booking but the rules were never explained to me. I preferred to do an al-la-carte situation as we could not be consistently free on her lesson day. One representative told me I could book online, one said I couldn't, one said I could book any time, one told me I had to book lessons at least 12 hours in advance. This got very old. 2. No locker room access. Apparently, there was some kind of incident involving another swim lesson parent and a member of LA Fitness, where this business is run out of - I can't speak to this as I was not involved. However, it meant that the entire swim school was unable to use the locker rooms. Safe Splash provided two small pop-up changing tents on the pool deck. Two tents for two full classes of kids and parents to use to change! By the time we had a turn, the whole tent was soaked! I often take my daughter to lessons on my own and rely on putting her in the stroller when I need to change. With the current set up this was impossible. I could not get her and myself dressed without also getting all our clothes wet. Dont even get me started about trying to get a diaper on 1 year old in that small area! 3. I didn't feel like she learned much! Granted it was a baby/toddler class but I know small kids can be taught survival skills. We paid A LOT of money and didn't learn anything. The biggest takeaway was supporting her body on our shoulders and not hands while floating. It was not worth the price. 4. The pool was always cold. I know this isn't really something SafeSplash could control but the kiddos were often shivering in the pool. We had a fun time swimming together and I loved watching her confidence grow which is why I kept the two stars but we'll be taking our business elsewhere.

A well-run swim school that focuses on building confidence, not just swimming skills…read more We've had all three of our kids at Goldfish Swim School in Mill Creek, and it's been a very positive experience. Two of our children have progressed through the Junior program (skipping Mini) and into Glider, with one of them completing the next level (Pro), while our youngest is just getting started. The results over the past six months have been impressive. Our older two have gone from being apprehensive in the water to genuinely enjoying swimming. Both are now able to swim independently with appropriate supervision, and our oldest (10) is arguably the best pool swimmer in our family. What really stands out isn't just the progress--it's Goldfish's approach to teaching. The instructor-to-student ratio is excellent, with one instructor for every two or three kids being the norm (occasionally four, but never feeling crowded). There are also multiple lifeguards on duty--roughly one for every three lanes--which gives parents a great deal of confidence. The instructors are patient, encouraging, and focused on helping kids become comfortable in the water rather than simply checking off skills. The skill evaluations are another strength. When it's time to test for the next level, each child receives one-on-one attention from an instructor, making the process feel thorough and encouraging rather than rushed. One of the things Goldfish does especially well is celebrate progress, not just outcomes. Kids who pass a level get to ring the celebration bell, giving them a real sense of pride and accomplishment. Even on days when they aren't testing--or don't quite advance yet--instructors recognize individual achievements with ribbons for things like learning a new skill or simply being brave in the water. It's a thoughtful approach that keeps kids motivated and reinforces that building confidence is just as important as mastering the next technique. The facility itself is very good. It's a glass-free facility with a comfortable viewing area where parents can clearly watch every lesson. The building is well lit, with good temperature control--warm on the pool deck while still comfortable in the seating area. There are convenient showers right next to the pool, spacious changing rooms with hair dryers and getting-ready areas, an easy electronic check-in system, and a fun snack counter with inexpensive treats so kids can buy something themselves after class. One thing to know before you enroll is that Goldfish is purpose-built as a swim lesson facility. If you're looking for water slides, splash features, or a recreational pool experience like McMenamins or the Snohomish Aquatic Center, this isn't that. Every aspect of the facility is designed around teaching children to swim safely, efficiently, and confidently. Parking at Mill Creek Town Center is generally good, although it can get busy during peak times. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is the cost and conditions of the make-up tokens. Enrolling multiple children is a significant investment, but in our experience the quality of instruction, the emphasis on safety, and--most importantly--the confidence our kids have gained in the water have made it well worth it. That said $43 a session for 30 minutes is on the high side. If you miss a class, you receive a make-up token that can be used later. While this has worked well for our family and is helpful, you do need to know is the tokens can accumulate over time, because you must remain enrolled to redeem them--you can't cancel or postpone lessons and fund off make up tokens. Overall, Goldfish has created a well-organized, safety-focused environment that inspires confidence in both kids and parents. More importantly, they've helped transform swimming from something our kids were nervous about into something they genuinely enjoy. After using Snohomish Aquatic Center, McMenamins, and Kingsgate, we'd recommend Goldfish to other families looking for a lesson-focused program for kids on the younger side (Ages 3-9). -AC

I am so happy they opened this swimschool. We previously used British Swim School (at 24 hour…read morefitness or something) and it was so overpriced for what they offered. Changing in tents, cold water, one bench for parents it was awful. I used Goldfish Swimschool for my daughter on the East Coast and loved it- this one is just as good. The facilities here are well worth the price. Tons of changing rooms, showers, diapers and hair ties for when you forget yours, huge seating area and warm swimming water. The staff are super friendly at the front desk and the couple swim instructors that have taught my kids are wonderful and patient.

We did our 4-year-old's birthday party here recently, and it was a great experience overall…read more The play area had options for the more adventurous kids and the ones who needed more calm - every one of them had fun! I appreciate that the play structure is designed tall enough for parents to navigate as needed too, even on upper levels. There was also plenty of space for parents to hang out and watch. The party room was totally serviceable (we booked a 12-kid package with 7 kids and 12 adults, which meant some of the adults were standing (12 chairs), but it worked fine and it didn't feel crowded). I am glad we booked a larger party size than needed so some adults could sit! You are allowed in 30 minutes before your start time to decorate - and they leave blue painter's tape for you. I pre-staged one wall mural, two tablecloths, a banner, and some hanging decorations in a tub and that transformed the plain space quickly and perfectly for a kid's party. Food was better than I expected for a play zone cafeteria - pizza was included in the package, and we added a half-tray of chicken tenders (very popular), which came with fries, and a half-tray of fruit (which the kids loved and was fresh). Lemonade was tasty too. Had a whole pizza left over! The only outside food you can bring is a "celebratory dessert" - easy!! Our party host on the day of the party was sweet, accommodating, and low-key while also checking in the perfect amount. All other staff onsite were also welcoming and helpful. I can see how two hours could be tight for some folks, but they're very upfront about the expectations, and it was no big deal - I just kept an eye on the clock and moved things along. Booking was a little confusing on the website (a larger room size was incorrectly showing for the smaller party package), but their party coordinator got me fixed after I screwed up my reservation initially. Overall, this was a great party experience, and we'd do it again. Low-key, so much just handled for you... Thanks, Kaity and Ridge Staff!
