'Amanda was fantastic with my oversized toddler with supersized muscles and tantrums to match! She taught him so so much and was able to handle him so well, I and my family are so impressed!!'

Julia F.

Lauren is absolutely wonderful with my (almost) 2 year old grandson. He has learned so much in just three lessons! We highly recommend Lauren and are so excited to see how Ollie progresses by the end of summer. He can already hold his breath under water for a full two seconds, which is great for a child so young. Every week, Lauren builds on Ollie's knowledge. Next week it will be three seconds, then four, five, etc. She makes it fun with songs and pool toys. Awesome instructor!

Emily has been the absolute best!! She is so caring and has been extremely patient with our one year old. I would highly recommend Emily to any of my friends/family. Thank you, Emily for loving our Poppi! - Shellbi Wright

'Michelle is amazing, my older daughter has tried 5 swim teachers, with no luck. Michelle is the perfect combo of firm and fun. And not only are my daughters making progress, but are LOVING swim. They ask every morning if it's a 'Mrs Michelle day?' Because they are SAD when they don't have swim. This is the biggest win. Thank you, Michelle!!

Charity has been great with my 2 kids. She's been gentle and yet firm with my 4 yr old boy who is a negotiator by nature. He is now confident to put his face in the water and trying hard to swim on his own. My 2 yr old girl is working towards floating as well as making it to the side of the pool with kicks and even with arms! And we are only half way through our lessons! Love that she comes to us so I'm not driving 20 minutes or more away for a 30 min lesson. - Jennifer Cauthron

Why are Heartland swimming lessons so important?

Drowning is the second leading cause of accidental death in the US for children under 14, and in most cases, it happens in just minutes โ€“ even when a caregiver is nearby. In fact:

Why Swim lessons important 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

Enrolling your child in swimming lessons is one of the best ways to prevent drowning by teaching them essential water safety skills.

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, youโ€™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 familyโ€™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 Heartland, our instructors teach year-round, so you can start lessons whenever youโ€™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 Heartland or across North 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 Heartland, where backyard pools, HOA pools, lakes 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 Heartland, 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.
