Arlene was a great instructor!! We had 2 little ones under 2 and she was super patient with them. She always was careful to make sure they were having a good time. She wanted smiles and no tears because she knew that was the best way for them to learn. I would love to use her again in the future when little ones are older!!

We were matched with Marianela as our swim instructor and she was wonderful! Our daughter started lessons when she was 14 months old and now at the end of summer, she's completely comfortable in the pool and loves the water. It's been so fun watching her learn new water skills each lesson. Highly recommend!

Holly is wonderful with Maliyah and so patient yet stern. Maliyah warmed right up to her right away and looks forward to her lessons. Holly is fantastic and always flexible and on time!

Jacquelyn A.

Swim lessons with Marianela Freites have been wonderful. We started working with her when my son was about 10 months and now at 1 year old, he feels so comfortable in the water that he jumps in the pool on his own, swims and kicks by himself, opens his eyes underwater to pick up toys and brings himself to the ledge/ stands up on the steps. Marianela has been very kind and gentle with my son and me, allowing it to be a safe and fun experience at each lesson for us both! I highly recommend working with her.

Olivia T.

Sensational was very easy to work with. They were very communicative and matched us promptly with an instructor, whom my kids loved. Our instructor, Alexa, was amazing with kids and as patient as they come (my kids' ages are 3 1/2 and 2). My 3 1/2 is now an avid swimmer and my 2 year old is so comfortable with the water, she will be swimming come next summer in no time. I highly recommend this company, although pricier, they certainly take good care of you.

Hailey W.

'Jordan was amazing. She has really been creative on building trust and making the lessons fun for my 2 little 2yr old girls. They both have very different personalities and Jordan was able to connect with both and build their confidence in the water. She gave us great advice on what we could do to continue their progress outside of the lessons.' - Mandy D

Hailey W.

Teaching a 2-year-old how to swim and be safe in the pool is no easy task, but Ms. SaCoastia did this with patience and persistence. She was just the right balance of kind and firm with my cautious child. My child is much more confident in the pool and can swim to the edge of our pool and monkey crawl to the stairs and get out on her own! This was only with one package, so we'll probably get another set of lessons to hone my child's skills even more! Thank you Sunsational and Ms. SaCoastia!

Sheena A.

Arlene has been amazing helping my 20 month old get comfortable in the water. He used to cling to us and was terrified of letting go. In 2 short sessions Arlene has my son floating on his belly with assistance and laying back in the water with assistance. We can't recommend Sunsational enough!

Camille W.

Catherine is great! The kids loved her. They had fun and learned at the same time.

Jim S.

'Queen is great with the kids! She is able to perfectly adjust from one age to the next to personalize each child's lesson. She is so kind and knowledgeable too! The kids are making great progress and will definitely miss Queen after their last lesson'

Kelly F.

Grace was wonderful with my 20 month old daughter. She made pool time fun and enjoyable. My daughter loves the water now! - Allison B.

Allison B.

'I cannot recommend Lizz highly enough! She has been an amazing swimming coach for my toddlers. Her patience and kindness made the learning experience so enjoyable for the kids. She took the time to make each child feel comfortable in the water, showing incredible understanding of their individual needs. Not only did she teach them the basics of swimming, but she also instilled a sense of water discipline that I found very impressive. My toddlers felt safe and supported, and their progress under her guidance has been remarkable. If you're looking for a coach who can effectively balance fun, safety, and skill-building, Lizz is the one!' -Qasim K.

Qasim K.

Suzanne was great! Patient, informative, and very flexible given that kids are unpredictable. I really found value in her lessons.

Whitney S.

We wanted to start getting our 2yr old comfortable with the water and explored various options to get her signed up in swim lessons. We found Mr. Josiah through Sunsational Swim School. We booked a 12 lesson package and are very pleased with the progress our daughter has made during the last months. She has grown more comfortable around water and learned important water survival skills. Through this journey Mr. Josiah was very patient with our daughter, he knows how to keep our daughter engaged with games and a positive attitude. A few times we had to reschedule our lessons and Mr. Josiah was very flexible! I would definitely recommend Sunsational Swim School and Mr. Josiah for your next swim lessons!

Alfonso M.

Aimee is super friendly and does great with little ones. Her energy is very conducive to their happiness.

Taylor H.

I had no idea what to expect when I came across this company, but I was on a MISSION to get my girls swimming QUICKLY... so I thought I'd give 1 on 1 lessons a try. Josiah Mwangi was our AMAZING swim coach, he had my girls (ages 4 and 6) swimming after only 2 lessons!!! He is EXTREMELY flexible, patient, and most importantly a fantastic swim coach. 'Mr. Josiah' as my girls call him- is extremely perceptive and responsive to the needs and wants of my girls, and he has helped them become confident and capable swimmers in record time. Now we are working on perfecting their strokes for Swim Team next year! Thank you SO much Josiah!!!

Heather H.

Juliana is great. My daughter loves her and looks forward to swim lessons. She’s super patient on days where my daughter gives resistance. We are optimistic for great results once our lessons complete.

5 reasons to start swim lessons for your baby now

Many Cumming 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.

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 Cumming. 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 Cumming, 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 Cumming 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 Atlanta, helping your little one feel confident and safe early on.

Absolutely. Every Sunsational instructor in Cumming 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 Cumming 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 Cumming, 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 Atlanta. In some areas, we even have some swim instructors who can provide a pool for your lessons.

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 Cumming, 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.
