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

SaCostia is amazing. She knows how to get the kids engaged. She is always on time and fun to work with. We are just midway through lessons and I am amazed at how much my sons can do in the pool.

Vera A.

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!

'Five stars for Sandy, the best swim instructor in Ormond Beach! Sandy is an amazing swim instructor! She taught my sons, X and J, how to swim, and they absolutely love her. She is patient, kind, and encouraging, and she makes learning fun. X was always a bit nervous around water, but Sandy quickly put him at ease. She started with the basics, like how to get comfortable in the water and how to float. She then taught him how to kick and stroke, and within a few weeks, he was swimming on his own! J is a natural swimmer, but Sandy still helped him improve his technique. She also taught him important safety skills, such as how to tread water and how to exit the pool safely. We are so grateful to Sandy for teaching our sons how to swim. She is a wonderful instructor, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for swim lessons in Ormond Beach.' - Lawrence Fayman

My husband and I are so glad we selected your company for swim lessons for our daughters. When I first called, all of my questions were answered in detail and I was provided additional helpful information. We were quickly matched with a great swim instructor, Maddie. She was amazing with our kids. Our 2 year old now knows basic swim techniques as well as survival techniques such as how to grab on to the wall and monkey crawl to the stairs. She has learned how to jump in and hold her breath and close her eyes. Our 1 year old learned age appropriate techniques (she started at 9 months). I am very happy with how our kids have progressed with the lessons.

'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

Mandy D.

We've had such a wonderful experience with Alijah. He is incredibly patient, consistently showing understanding and care no matter the pace of progress. His encouragement and positive energy make a huge difference- he knows how to connect with kids and create a fun, supportive environment. He keeps things engaging and playful, which means my daughter is not only progressing but genuinely excited for each swim lesson. It's such a joy to see her so happy and motivated in the water. I highly recommend him to any parent looking for a swim instructor who combines skill with kindness and truly knows how to make learning fun for kids!

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

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 St Augustin Beach, 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 St Augustin Beach or across Northeast Florida. 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 St Augustin Beach, where backyard pools, community pools, beaches 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 St Augustin Beach, 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.
