    Do your child the favor of going somewhere else. This is not a swim school your child will not learn anything, waste of time and money.

The facility is nice--a big pool, ample chair & bench seating for observing, 2 restrooms, spacious changing rooms, a play area with some simple items, vending machine, & a hair dryer for use. Music plays in the background. Communication was facilitated through email, phone, text, & in-person availability. We always found staff helpful. They also had a box for comments & praise for staff. Our kiddo did 2 sessions with 2 designated instructors. However, she ended up working with 3 other substitutes several times as well. You are given advance notice, & luckily our kiddo would go with the flow, but some kids might have a harder time if they need more trust & consistency. We generally found the instructors to be encouraging & positive. There's a fine line between pushing too hard or not enough, & they seemed to try to find that sweet spot. Little one would get pep talks when needed. She enjoyed the bit of free play at the end of the session as a reward for her efforts. We appreciated the post-class progress checks from the instructors. A ribbon system created positive incentive & moments of pride when earned. It's notable that other dynamics will impact your experience. It was really nice when we had a time that wasn't too busy compared to another time that was quite crowded. Though signs are in the play area regarding supervision & playing nicely with items, I still observed poor behavior & lack of supervision. Also, waiting for the dressing rooms was disorganized. Though a pseudo-line would form, some people opportunistically jumped in ahead. In hindsight, it would be helpful for staff to remind & emphasize some parent behavior expectations & create a system for lining up for the dressing rooms.

If they wanted money they should have just said so up front. We left with both of my children in tears. You can scam adults. That just makes you bad people. But to HURT KIDS?!? How do you sleep?

    Outstanding Swim Lessons! We couldn't be happier with the…read moreswim lessons at Starfish Swim School! From day one, Kelli created a warm, welcoming environment that made our grandson feel safe and excited to be in the water. All of the instructors (Kelli, Sam, and Joe) are incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and truly understands how to work with young children while blending fun with important water safety skills in the perfect balance. Each week's lesson is well-structured, age-appropriate that keeps our 3-year old grandson focused and smiling. We were amazed by the progress in just a few short weeks. Swim students are one-on-one with their instructor. It's clear they genuinely care about each child's comfort and development. We highly recommend these lessons to any parent looking to introduce their child to swimming or expand their child's swimming skills.

The pool is warm for the swimmers and the inside is warm for parents sitting and watching. They have a changing area and bathroom for you to change there. My grandson had Joe and Sam for his lessons. When he started he was very scared and they were so patient and gentle with him. Once he warmed up he really started progressing quickly. This place is amazing and perfect for any little swimmer.
