Biggest mistake of my life. We have tried so many swim schools by our new house and they are all so terrible compared to silver bear.

My son is in their program, so that's what I have experience with. But I am confident that all ages are the same. Take your kids here!

My son has severe eczema so finding a saltwater pool was also a requirement for us. He doesn't seem to have any issues with the water solution on his skin or the mass amounts consumed during a lesson, lol. I appreciate how easy it is to schedule and book online. My son loves it and can't wait for his next lesson. I feel confident with the curriculum and the pace they set based on each child. I would highly recommend Utah Aquatics Academy to anyone and everyone! I can't wait to see my sons progression and continued pride with his efforts.

It seems odd to me that I'm one of the only ones to leave a poor review here, but all I can do is…read moretell my honest experience and let you decide what you'll do with your kids! We arrived for our first lesson for my 20 month old and I was surprised to see the school is just in someone's back yard. There were two instructors in the pool and no one else from the business around, so after a bit of confusion, we just sat by some other parents and waited our turn. What we saw was horrifying. Both infants in the water were screaming and crying, just desperate to get out. The poor mom next to me was holding her face in agony watching her baby scream like that. In fact, all the parents we saw there had that same agonizing look on their faces. The instructors didn't even seem phased. They must see that a lot, because they just kept going, stone faced with the kids. Eventually one of the kids just started violently vomiting in the water. It was not pretty! The instructor again didn't even seem phased and just took a net and scooped up the floating pieces at the top of the water. Ummm gross! When it was my sons turn I took him to the water and he started playing with some toys. I was hopeful he might not cry the whole time! After he got in, he too started screaming and wailing to be with a stranger in the water. I can understand kids don't like that sort of thing, but it just seemed like the instructor was awful with kids because all he did was, with a monotone voice, say "it's okay. You're okay, etc" which obviously did nothing to calm my child. After 18 agonizing minutes of watching my child's jaw shake from crying so hard, I went to the instructor and asked if that was normal. He said it was, and it usually isn't until the 5th or 6th lesson that they learn how to float and stop crying the whole way through. These lessons are $30 a piece, so getting to 5 lessons would be $150 of your child screaming, choking and wishing they were anywhere else. That night my poor toddler had nightmares all night long! There were snacks for the kids to eat at a table nearby, but they all cost money and you needed to Venmo to take something. The whole vibe of this place is just off! Kids screaming and vomiting in the water, cold instructors who don't seem to care or know how to calm children, and a crazy hot backyard with barely any shade to sit under. (We actually had to sit sideways to avoid the 99° sun during the lesson) it's not worth the money I paid upfront to go back to any lessons. I would definitely not recommend this school to anyone. I'm sure the peace of mind of having your child learn to swim or float is invaluable, but I'll do it somewhere where the journey isn't such a scarring experience for the child and parents alike.

La Petite has been JUST what I have needed in a pre-school program…read more I am a single mom and because I share custody of my son he is only there certain days. The La Petite staff has always been extremely accommodating with my schedule with my son. Sometimes he needs to go extra when I have him over spring or over fall break and they have always been willing and able to work with me. I cannot say how nice that is! Along with the schedule, my son genuinely looks forward to going to preschool/daycare. He wakes up in the morning and asks, "Can I go to school now?! I don't want to miss Ms Linda." (Who is his absolute favorite) I'll admit, after a few changes in ownership over COVID I was really worried about what would happen. However, I have been extremely impressed by all of the staff members at La Petite Academy in East Lehi. They genuinely care and love my son. They serve healthy (but yummy!) meals, have a clean atmosphere and have amazing curriculum that makes school fun and a good environment for learning. I don't have anything negative to say. I guess if I really tried hard to think of something to say is that we want more Ms. Linda! Thank you for providing a safe, fun and loving environment for my son, La Petite!

Unfortunately when he started walking that is when he was switched to a bigger kids class. The teachers in there 100% absolutely did not watch my son. Every single day he was hurt.
