Cherise has worked well with our son. She has been patient with working with him. Due to him having Autism she had a challenge getting him to understand but I have seen great progress with him. I only wish she had a little more experience with kids with Autism. This was one of my requests when I signed up. We went ahead and completed the session as we wanted him to learn to swim she did a good job with him.

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 Glendale AZ or across Phoenix Metro. 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.

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.

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.
