Why our students and parents love us!

5-star rated by parents and swimmers alike

'Sydney has been a great instructor for our family. She tailors the lessons to match my kids personalities and interests to keep them engaged.' Melissa Lane

Melissa L.

We love Erin! She's great with our two kids. My toddler was hesitant to go in the pool at first but Erin worked with her and now she's happy going in the pool. My five-year-old went from only using floaties to being able to swim the length of the pool. Erin is great with the kids and super easy to coordinate with. Definitely recommend her.

Tara W.

Lara was super flexible with our schedule and our son had a great experience as well. My wife and I couldn't have been more satisfied with everything including the convenience of hosting a private swim lesson right in our backyard. The price was very reasonable, A+ and we hope to hook it again next summer.

Trish A.

Aiden has been wonderful! My son really grew to love him and they had a lot of fun in the water together. Aiden has a lot of patience, especially on the days where my son refused to stay in the water! But I was always impressed with his ability to stay calm and motivate him to keep swimming. Teaching a 2-3 year old to swim is hard work! Highly recommend Aiden if your looking for private lessons for your toddler

Laura D.

Aiden was great. Very patient with my 2.5 yo son. Polite, professional and always on time.

Brittany P.

'Sunsational Swim School was easy to work with and very accommodating for our schedule. Our swim instructor, Jaida, was friendly and always came with a smile for our son. Jaida did a great job introducing our son to the water and getting him closer to swimming. By the end of his lessons, he was happily playing with her and gaining confidence in the skills needed to swim.' - Susan J.

McKenna came out to do our lessons for our triplet babies. She was great. Even though the babies were crying, she was able to calm the down and stop their crying by using toys. I highly recommend Sunsational Swim School. Thanks.

Why are Livermore 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.

I have been an avid swimmer and swim instructor for nine years. For the past 5 years, I've taught private swim lessons. I've worked for swim academies, teaching children as young as 6 months, water safety skills, and swim strokes, but I prefer the private setting as each child has their own needs and fears that need to be overcome. Unfortunately, you can't always get that in a group setting. My goal is to make your child excited about entering the water, and water safe, should an accident occur.

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 Livermore, 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 Livermore or across South Bay. 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 Livermore, where backyard pools, community centers 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 Livermore, 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.
