My son enjoyed his time at Aqua-Tots Cypress. He began at 15 months and is now 5 years old. This…read moreschool did a great job of teaching him the fundamentals and helped him to develop a love for the water. He cried during every class for the first three months and now begs us to go swimming. The front desk staff has always been friendly and greets my son by name each time he walks in the front door. We ultimately left because we were ready to put my younger son in swim lessons and this location had no time slots available at the same time to accommodate both. The one improvement I would have loved during our time there was to have consistent swim instructors. My son would grow attached to an instructor and then they would either move to other classes or leave altogether. Luckily, he was able to adapt to a different instructor each time that it happened.

As a parent of a child with special needs, I want to share our deeply disappointing experience with…read moreFINS. When we enrolled our child, we were assured FINS would be patient, flexible and accommodating. Unfortunately this turned out to be false. At the first sign of discomfort during one of his sessions, something not uncommon for children with sensory or developmental challenges, FINS made the decision to remove him from the program entirely. We had accrued 13 make up sessions to this point and were told we could do the make up sessions during the daytime slots. But when we tried to take them up on that offer, that option was suddenly unavailable. No warnings. No make up sessions. No partial refund. No support. FINS presented itself as inclusive and understanding, but when it truly mattered they turned their back on a child who just needed some extra support. This was not just poor communication - it felt like a complete disregard for a vulnerable student and their family. To any parent considering FINS, especially those with children of special needs, think twice. This experience was not only frustrating. It was deeply hurtful. We expected compassion. Instead what we got was a business decision and this place is purely in it for the money. Our child deserves better.

Why 5 stars? Because our experience with Bonnie was the best case scenario…read more --- --- --- Our three year old son is kind of a crazy person. He's Olympic-level stubborn and is pretty far behind with certain aspects of his development. So when we decided to take him to swim lessons, we were pretty nervous that it was going to go like most other things we attempt to do: poorly. The first day, he didn't really know what he was getting into. He likes going to the pool, but he quickly realized that this was not just play time. Bonnie put him to work. So the next 3 lessons caused a massive meltdown and he put up a pretty major fight each day. But then he got sick and we had a trip plan, so our lessons were put on hold for a while and we re-started them about a month later. Miraculously, he was not mad about lessons at all during Round #2. He loved going and he quickly turned into an excellent swimmer. I write this a couple of weeks after he completed his lessons and he seems to be getting better each time we go to the pool. He always gets compliments from other people, especially when they find out that he's only 3 years old. This summer began with me having to either force floaties on him (surprise, he hated them), or I had to be holding him the entire time we were in the pool. Now, he is basically self-sufficient in the water. His swimming is very good, and he knows how to roll on his back and float when he's tired and needs air. I don't really understand how Bonnie teaches them to hold their breath under water - I assume they just figure it out the hard way after they get water up their nose a few times. But that might be the best thing swim lessons taught him. The only negative about these swim lessons were that they were at 3pm Monday-Thursday. And with both of us working, it was a challenge to have him home early from daycare, 4 days a week because he's not the type of kid that can just go entertain himself. But making sure he knows how to swim and minimizing the chance at any water-related disasters in the future is easily worth a few weeks of schedule inconvenience. The lessons are only 10 minutes a day and are held in someone's personal pool. Ours lasted 5-6 weeks. The routine was very similar each day, other than he had to wear regular (non-swim) clothes three times and I had to go in the pool with him once. Besides that, we would just sit off to the side and watch while he did mostly the same routine every day. And you know what? That schedule/routine worked amazingly! Bonnie is a true miracle worker.
