'Celine from Sunsational Swim School was great! She really helped Casey get over some of his fear of putting his face in the water and he advanced a lot more than in his prior group swim lessons.' Ben W.

Reilly is an excellent swim instructor. My three-year-old son can be difficult to deal with. He was afraid of the water and very emotional during the early lessons. Reilly was extremely patient with him, gained his trust and he ended up making great progress. I highly recommend Reilly for swim lessons.

**We absolutely loved Coach Cat!** She was incredible with my two toddlers — full of energy, perfectly in tune with their needs, and so skilled at keeping them excited, engaged, and learning. My girls were excited to see Coach Cat every single time. That’s huge for us! Her flexibility with scheduling was a huge bonus for our busy family, and I especially appreciated that we could work it out directly with her. One of the things we loved most was that they got to learn to swim where they’ll actually be swimming. Coach Cat knew exactly how to gently push them a little further without ever making them fearful — even when it came to going underwater. My 3-year-old can *actually swim* now, which I honestly didn’t expect to see so soon. That’s specifically thanks to Cat. On the last day, she even became a mermaid for them — such a magical, memorable moment! They’re still talking about it. Thank you, Coach Cat, for being so sweet and intentional with your teaching. My girls truly connected with you, and we’re so grateful!

Ivan was a fantastic instructor! He was engaging and make the lessons fun for my son. He was on time and had great communication with us! My son is 22 months and he made him feel confident with water safety. We are so happy he can get to the edges of the pool and climb out. He can even do fun activities like getting toys from the bottom of the pool! Would recommend him to anyone!

Swim instructor with 20 years of experience. I swam on my local swim team from ages 4 to 17. I began as a lifeguard and swim instructor in May 2004. I became a swim coach in May 2005. I have experience with all ages, from infants to adults. From first introductions to the water, to learning to swim, and even improving strokes and techniques for established swimmers. I understand every child learns at a different pace, so patience and the ability to build trust are essential in my style of teaching. I prioritize safety and set clear boundaries so my students will not just have fun and learn to swim, but know how to respect the water. I love watching my students build confidence while we have fun in the water!

I've also been delving into the world of education for the past year by tutoring middle school students. Currently, I'm studying Psychology at the University of North Texas.

Hi! Im Paige! Swimming has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Between club practices twice a day, high school swim, and summer league, there were many weeks when I spent 40+ hours in the pool. In college at Baylor University, I became a swim coach and worked with swimmers of all ages. From teaching private lessons to two-year-olds to coaching a team aged 718. Helping swimmers grow in confidence, skill, and passion for the sport is so much fun. Outside of the pool, I work with large banks in the Northeast on AI decisioning software. When Im not in the water or working, youll find me behind the boat wakesurfing, creating with my embroidery machine, or spending time with my husband and our two doodle puppies. See you at the pool!

Hello, my name is Marco! Despite being a sophomore studying Mechanical Engineering, I tend to defy the stereotypes that come with it by always staying active both in and out of the water. Since February 2023, I have taught a multitude of kids in both group settings and one-on-one classes for ages 2 years through teens. One of my major concerns is to always establish a proper connection with students prior to developing their skills. A child who is comfortable making mistakes is capable of surpassing their shortcomings when granted the proper safety and encouragement.

Got questions?

We have answers. What makes private lessons better than group classes?

We are so confident in our private, one-on-one instruction that we offer a Learn-to-Swim Guarantee for all students ages 3 and up!* We guarantee your child will be able to resurface, turn around, swim back to the edge of the pool and grab the wall unassisted after they complete their Learn to Swim Guaranteed package. If your child completes their lesson package and hasn't achieved the agreed-upon milestones, we'll work with you to provide up to 4 additional lessons at no extra cost until they do. This program is our commitment to building a foundation of safety and confidence for your child in the water.

Our pricing is transparent and based on the swim lesson package you choose. Packages are available in 6, 12 and 18 lessons with options for 30-minute, 60-minute or longer sessions for multiple students back-to-back. Every package includes a certified, background-checked instructor who comes to your home or preferred pool. Because lessons are private and personalized, you’ll see faster progress and greater value compared to group classes. Start a registration to build a package and see an exact, no-hassle price on options best for your goals and budget.

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 Del Valle, our instructors teach year-round, so you can start lessons whenever you’re ready.

Our core service is providing private, at-home swim lessons. Your trained instructor travels to your home pool, community pool or aquatic facility anywhere in Del Valle or across Central Texas. If you don't have a pool, our instructors are happy to meet you at any safe, local pool of your choosing. If using a facility pool, be sure to have authorization to have your Private Swim Lessons there.

Absolutely. Every Sunsational swim instructor is rigorously vetted with comprehensive background checks and is certified in CPR and first aid, and insured under our company insurance policy. Our instructors have a minimum of 2 seasons of teaching experience before being certified. Many also have specialized experience working with infants, toddlers, special needs learners, or adults overcoming fear of water. In Del Valle, where backyard pools, community pools, rivers make swimming skills essential, you can trust that your instructor is not only qualified but passionate about building water confidence and safety in every student.

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 Del Valle, 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.

We stand by the quality of our instructors and offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. While we are confident in our rigorous selection process (all instructors are background-checked and CPR-certified), we want you to have the perfect match. If you're not completely satisfied with your first lesson, just let us know, and we'll restart your lessons with a new instructor or refund your unused lessons, your choice.

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.

Our swim instructors travel to your home or community pool. Learn to Swim Guaranteed
