Ive taught students from 1 year old to 20 years old how to swim, so no matter who Im teaching, I can definitely give it my all! It would be a pleasure to teach your student how to swim.

Paige S.
Austin, Texas 78741
Sunsational Vetted Since 2026
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!

Austin, Texas 78702
Sunsational Vetted Since 2025
Hello everyone! I am so thrilled to be a part of Sunsationals team. I have been a swimmer (a fishy) since I was itty bitty! Those skills then transferred to being on the swimming team and then teaching. If you want a swim instructor who brings the energy, keeps things fun, and actually gets kids excited to learn, Im your person. Whether its little ones learning their first kicks or adults looking to feel more at home in the pool, I keep lessons engaging, upbeat, and stress-free. My personality naturally gets kids hyped up (seriously, theyll be begging to come back), and I make sure everyone leaves feeling stronger, safer, and proud of what theyve accomplished. Ready to make a splash? Lets do this!

Every package includes a certified, background-checked instructor who comes to your home or preferred pool.

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 Sunset Valley, 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 Sunset Valley 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 Sunset Valley, 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.

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.
