Rebeka is so incredible, I am extremely happy with the swim lessons she provides! She makes my daughter feel so comfortable, brining fun water toys each time she meets with us. Rebeka is always smiling and ensures everyone is comfortable, even the parents! Highly highly recommend her.

Eddie has been fantastic! I wasn't sure how it was going to go as my 21 month old boy tends to gravitate better towards women than men but he loves Eddie. He is so calm and patient with him and we are so grateful to have found him. We previously had one swim class at a well known swim facility and what he learned in the first lesson alone would have taken weeks with the previous facility.

'My kids was previously in a regular weekly swim school with 15 min classes for the past year and did not seem to be learning much so I tried sunsational. We were perfectly matched with our instructor Ryley and she has been amazing. The best ever. Kids love her and she has taught them so much in such a short space of time. I will definitely using Sunsational and Ryley for as long as we can.' Anita Chekuri

Sarah was instrumental in helping my 16 month old learn to hold her breathe and swim. She made my daughter feel comfortable and weaved in fun play to keep my daughter engaged. Being that she’s 16 months we will have to consistently practice her new learned skills to improve on them but without Sarah we wouldn’t be where we are today. She also helped her learn to kick and crab crawl for safety. I highly recommend Sarah.

The instructor Kristin is excellent with working with my child to help him gain confidence and learn to swim! She is patient yet authoritative with my three year old. If he can't focus on one task she changes it up to something different so he is constantly learning and challenging him with new things. My son was timid to get in the pool at first but now looks forward to his lessons! He respects her as a teacher yet thinks of her as a friend.

Austin is a great instructor for my grandson, who is two. He has taught my grandson life saving skills while in the water and out of the water. My grandson looks forward to each lesson with Austin and uses the skills and techniques he has learned anytime he is in or around water. I highly recommended choosing Austin for your child’s swim lessons.

Melanie is they absolute best. We have a non verbal 2 year old as well as a chatterbox 4yr old. My two year old tries to cry the entire time, but keeps getting distracted by Melanie's tactics! My 4 yr old on the other hand wishes he had lessons 7 days a week! We tried aqua-tots before and both my kids hated it. My oldest started out hating any water on his face but after 8 lessons he can swim under water from one side of the pool to the other! He excitedly told me that 'he was a big fish because he can see underwater!' The transformation in his confidence and self worth is unbelievable. While at Aqua-tots I had to force them into the water. Now I can't keep them out of it. I can't imaging having anyone other than Mrs. Melanie as our teacher! She is always respectful, polite, and understanding of each child's needs. Thank you, Melanie! We can't wait to schedule with you again next summer!

We are so happy with our experience w/ sunsational swim school and Ms. Jenny! Ms. Jenny is an incredible instructor and works so well with our twins. They’re complete opposites and Ms. Jenny is able to change up strategies with what each child needs. She is so patient and handles the toddlers occasional screaming amazingly. Ms. Jenny also helps my husband and myself with what we can do ourselves to help our girls be as water safe as possible. Ms. Jenny is so kind and informative and works with us. Would recommend to anyone looking for swim lessons.

We started lessons back up this year 2020 and Sunsational swim school has paired us up with another great instructor. Lessons are going great! Alex A is a fantastic teacher and my son really loves working with her. She is always on time and has a great attitude. She finds ways to keep it fun for him so he stays engaged. She is fantastic. My son is only 3 1/2 and he swims pretty great for his age and I feel safe having him in the water. 2019 We have had lessons with Jennifer Le now for the past few months twiceand she is fantastic. My 2 1/2-year-old has had lessons before but he has excelled so much just in the past month with her. He was very difficult to work with in the beginning with crying and not wanting to swim but she was able to get him to swim and have fun. She was very open in switching days if that needed to be done and getting make up classes set up. Having swim lessons at my home is such an amazing convenience.

Aaron is enthusiastic, sincere and professional and really knows how to work with babies and strong willed toddlers.

We will have him back.

Having a baby and a toddler at home made me want the convenience of a swim teacher coming to our home. Kristen was punctual, kind, patient, and professional! I was able to watch my daughter learn to swim in the comfort of our home. She was fully engaged in my daughter and able to meet her where she was both developmentally and as a swimmer!

We have been doing swim lessons with Amber for a couple of months now and she is amazing. My nephew is 8 and improved his skills and abilities swimming by leaps and bounds. My 2 1/2 year old has come along way with getting more comfortable with the water. Blowing bubbles, going under water, kicking his legs, floating on his back and monkey crawling. She is great with both ages and I’d highly recommend her.

5 reasons to start swim lessons for your baby now

Many Anaheim Hills parents wonder if their baby is too young to start learning to swim. They think babies will eventually learn the skills on their own, or that the skill isn’t necessary. Here’s why starting lessons early is a smart choice:

Water safety starts early

Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children under four. Babies are naturally curious, which is why baby swimming lessons make so much sense. An awareness of the water, and water safety skills, could very well save your child’s life one day.

Decreased risk of drowning

It’s not always possible to watch your child every second, and water is often part of everyday life—from bathtubs and backyard pools to beaches, splash pads, and family outings. Young children can be at risk around even small amounts of water, especially infants & toddlers under 5. Swimming lessons can help children build comfort in the water and begin developing important water safety skills as part of a broader approach to drowning prevention.

Encourages social interaction

Swimming and playing in the pool with parents and other babies helps boost babies' social development.  Babies learn through shared experiences, laughter, and engaging in activities together. Your child shouldn't have to skip these character-forming moments due to a fear of the water or because you simply haven't found the time for swim lessons.

Builds their strength

For babies, swimming helps strengthen their muscles, improve coordination, and enhance their motor skills – all without any unnecessary stress on joints. Plus, the water’s resistance provides a full-body workout, even for the tiniest of swimmers. Swimming may even help learn to walk sooner thanks to better muscle control.

Lifelong skill that starts early

Swimming is a skill for life. Providing your baby with swimming lessons opens up a whole new arena of fun and fitness that they can participate in all their lives. If you don't know how to swim, consider taking a parent and baby swim class together or taking adult swim lessons on your own. Create core memories in the water, together!

How parent and baby swim lessons help build confidence around the water

Babies as young as six months old benefit from pool time in the arms of a trusted adult. Infant swim lessons allow your child to enjoy the water before they have a chance to learn fear. Positive pool experiences help babies remain calm so they can progress to learn effective water navigation skills such as kicking and back floats.

How parent and baby swim lessons help image
75%of children who drown were out of sight for five minutes or less
9 out of 10drowning deaths occur while an adult is present

The benefits of swim lessons extend beyond the pool. The sensory and motor stimulation resulting from pool time creates new neurons that positively impact confidence and even intelligence. Bilateral movements, or using both sides of the body, help increase the connections between the two hemispheres of the brain, which will later help with skills like language development, spatial awareness and reading.

How to prepare your baby for swim lessons

Not ready for a formal class yet? Start at home! Simple activities in the bathtub, like gently pouring water over your baby’s head, introducing words like “kick” and “splash”, or laying them on their back in shallow water, can help them feel comfortable in the water before their first lesson.


When you’re ready for the pool, help your baby be successful with these tips:

  • 1
    Feed them at least 30 minutes before a lesson to prevent tummy discomfort
  • 2
    Pack essentials like swim diapers, towels, dry clothes, and fresh diapers
  • 3
    Arrive early so you have time to get ready
  • 4
    Ease into the water to keep the experience positive

Water safety is always the number one priority

Even the most comprehensive water training program isn’t enough to drown-proof your child. Babies should always be within arm’s reach in the water, and children should never swim unsupervised. The goal of baby swim lessons is to help build comfort in the water and introduce foundational water safety skills, which may help reduce the chance of accidental drowning as part of a broader approach to water safety. This includes active supervision, pool fences and barriers, alarms, and other safety measures, but risk can never be eliminated completely. Even if your little one was the star of the class, it’s important to remain vigilant with supervision to help ensure positive and safe experiences in and around the water for years to come.

I also have experience working with individuals who have special needs. I enjoy teaching water safety and coaching students on what to do in dangerous situations for safety purposes. I love when students gain confidence, both mentally and physically, in swimming and in life, knowing they can now accomplish something they once doubted in themselves. I am pursuing a career in law enforcement.

Got questions?

We have answers. What age can babies start swim lessons?

No. Sunsational Swim School’s infant swim lessons are based on a child-centered and caring approach that focuses on building trust and rapport with the instructor and wonderment and respect of the water. When designing your baby’s swim lesson plan, our instructors consider all aspects of the well-being of your baby, including physical and emotional. Your swim instructor will create a safe environment for your baby to learn water-safety skills that include back floating, roll over breathing, “swim-float-swim”, the monkey crawl, and what to do after a fall into the pool. All of these skills are taught in a way that’s both fun and educational, using games, repetition, and even songs, at a pace that’s healthy for your little one.

Yes! Sunsational specializes in private, at-home baby swimming lessons, where our instructors come directly to your pool or community facility in Anaheim Hills. It’s the easiest way for your baby to learn in a calm, familiar setting.

We make scheduling easy. Morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend lessons are avaialble 6AM-8PM to fit your family’s lifestyle. You choose the days, times and number of lessons per week that works for you. Because all lessons are private, scheduling is completely flexible and can be adjusted for vacations or weather. In Anaheim Hills, our instructors teach year-round, so you can start lessons whenever you’re ready.

Every child is unique and develops at their own pace. Physical and emotional readiness, motor skills and willingness all play a role in the pace your baby learns. However, the most common and most influential factors in the student’s learning pace we find is repetition and consistency. We recommend our baby students take 3 lessons per week for maximum skill retention and fast progression. Most of our students make significant progress within 12 to 18 lessons in our baby swim classes.

Yes. Swimming is not only defined as the four major swim strokes, but the ability to propel through the water. Your baby can learn how to use their little limbs, breathing and sense of direction to deliberately move from point a to b in the water, once they start walking. These skill sets are learned in a progressive manner and each child learns at a different pace. Our infant swim lesson teachers are experienced in coaching your baby to learn these skills in a fun, encouraging, and accelerated way. Even if your baby is not ready to swim, we'll work on swim and safety skills like blowing bubbles (breath control), kicking, rolling over onto our back and floating.

Your baby’s first swim lesson is designed to be gentle, fun, and completely pressure-free. The goal isn’t to make your baby swim right away—it’s to help them feel safe, happy, and relaxed in the water. Tears on the first day are not unexpected!

Your Sunsational instructor will start by introducing your baby to the pool gradually: gentle splashing, floating with support, and playful water exploration. Parents or caregivers are always encouraged to be present.

Most Anaheim Hills parents begin lessons around 6 months old, when babies can comfortably hold their heads up and start exploring the water. Babies who have early exposure to swim lessons and the water are proven to have reduced anxieties and emotional obstacles learning how to swim. The water at this age is a familiar place as it’s similar to floating in the womb. Sunsational’s certified instructors offer private, at-home baby swimming lessons throughout Orange County, helping your little one feel confident and safe early on.

Absolutely. Every Sunsational instructor in Anaheim Hills is certified in CPR and insured under our company liability insurance policy. What's more, every Sunsational swim instructor has a minimum of 2 season's of teaching experience. We emphasize comfort, floating, and water awareness—always at your baby’s pace.

Every child learns differently, but with consistent, one-on-one instruction, most Anaheim Hills infants begin floating and showing swim readiness within our 12 or 18 lesson package. Sunsational’s personalized approach—taught in your own pool—helps babies progress faster than in group lessons. We find that the most common and most influential factors in the student’s learning pace are repetition and consistency. To that end, we recommend our baby students take 3 lessons per week for maximum skill retention and fast progression.

While we specialize in private, at-home infant swim classes in Anaheim Hills, you do not need to have a pool to register for our lessons. Our infant swim teachers near you can meet you at any pool of your choice in Orange County. In some areas, we even have some swim instructors who can provide a pool for your lessons. To find out if we have instructors with pool access in your specific area, you can begin a registration here

We understand if you're concerned about selecting the right swim instructor for your lessons, because we are too! Our full-time, dedicated matching team carefully reviews your registration and hand selects a swim instructor for your lessons based on your swimmer's age, goals and your schedule. You'll receive a detailed instructor profile with experience, certifications, and reviews. If you'd like to request a specific instructor in Anaheim Hills, we'll do our best to accommodate. But rest assured that we stand behind each of our swim instructors and selections with our Satisfaction Guarantee.

For baby and some toddler lessons, parent participation is encouraged for building water comfort. For older children (typically ages 2+), parents are not specifically encouraged to be in the water, as our one-on-one private instruction is designed to build independence. However, we always require a responsible adult to be present on the premises for all lessons with minors. If you have specific preferences or concerns, our team is happy to accommodate them in your registration. We tailor each lesson to your comfort and goals.
