5-star rated by parents and swimmers alike

Summer is AMAZING. Sheโ€™s amazing with kids, a great communicator and great to work with. Sheโ€™s super patient with our kiddo but also helps push her to move past her fears. We love working with her and would recommend her to anyone (especially with littles)! - Hannah Lee

We feel very fortunate to have our 14 month-old training with Miss Jaye. She is persistent with our ambivalent son, and he has made incredible progress in the swimming pool these past few months. She is caring and experienced. She did her utmost to accommodate my schedule so that I could be present for the lessons instead of relying on our nannies solely. Thank you very much Miss Jaye!

I would absolutely recommend Sunsational. Our instructor Aden was amazing in the way he was able to handle and communicate with our three-year-olds. He taught them both swimming skills way beyond what our expectations had been. They can jump off the side, climb out of the pool, kick and paddle, across the pool with a foam noodle among other skills Aden taught them. Both toddlers really liked Aden and had a lot of fun. We'll definitely be signing up for more lessons with Aden.

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

Why are Dixon 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 twins and at first they had stranger danger, but Vlad has been SO patient and warm welcoming to my babies that they are finally warming up! He has gone above and beyond to do anything to get my babies to warm up with him. It is working and I'm seeing improvement every class! He is wonderful. Even if at the end they don't know how to swim, I am very pleased with him and it is getting my babies comfortable with being in the water. I would definitely recommend!

Hello, my name is Alonso Martinez. I have been swimming now since September 2017 for almost 9 years, I played water polo and did competitive swimming as well as doing instructional swimming lessons/lifeguarding for 3+ years, but I was not always good enough to do any of these activities. Learning to swim for me began with some obstacles. I had a scary encounter when learning to swim that almost deterred me from it completely, but stuck with it and am here now. My past encounters have helped build the skill that allowed me to teach for the past 3+ years and has allowed me to understand the fear that someone has when learning aquatic skills. Swimming, can be fun and hopefully I will be able to assist in this new venture.

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 Dixon, 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 Dixon or across Greater Sacramento. 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 Dixon, 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. You'll receive a detailed instructor profile with experience, certifications, and reviews. If you'd like to request a specific instructor in Dixon, 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.
