5-star rated by parents and swimmers alike

Ms. Royce is a great instructor for my 2-year old! She is always very receptive, responsive, and comforting to my daughter. - Nancy Endress

Nancy E.

We had such a blast this summer with Jess! Our little one became much more comfortable in the water, and so did we! Each lesson was fun, instructional, entertaining and best of all, created long sleeps/naps. Highly recommend!

Jaimie H.

'Teresa is absolutely wonderful!! She is excellent with kids and focuses on safety first. My son absolutely loves her class and has learned so much! I highly recommend!!' - Darlene B.

Darlene B.

Kristin was amazing and so patient with our little one! Our toddler learned so much and is confident in the water. We absolutely love her!

Sandra P.

'Christa was amazing. Our daughter absolutely loved her, and learned so much during their lessons. Before starting our daughter would not even stick her head under the water, and after Christa's lessons she is practically swimming on her own at just 2 years old! Can not recommend enough, would not want anyone else teaching our kids to swim.' Tim Morris

Tim M.

We had a wonderful experience with Leslie as my son’s swim instructor. She was incredibly attentive, always focused on his comfort and progress in the water. I appreciated how flexible she was with her schedule, making it easy for us to fit lessons into our busy routine. Leslie brought a calm, patient energy that really helped build my son’s confidence in the pool. We’re so grateful for her care and dedication — highly recommend her to any parent looking for a thoughtful and reliable swim instructor!

Julie B.

Zoey is amazing with our son! He is always asking when she is coming next and when he sees her he is ecstatic! She does such a great job with him and he has learned an incredible amount in the past 9 lessons! I would highly recommend her!

Nicole B.

Grace was great! She was so patient and worked wonderfully with my son. So happy with Grace and can’t wait to continue working with her!

Ameena A.

Charis is an absolute delight, she is always on time and professional. My kids love working with her and I've already seen a big improvement with their swim skills. I would highly recommend her and Sunsational!

Ashlee Y.

Madisen was a fantastic teacher for our 2 and 3 year old boys; their progress was amazing! We feel so much safer around the water and their confidence has made being in pool so fun. They can’t wait to show us what they learned. I would love to have her come back next year. - Tracy Rhoades

Tracy R.

The best part of Sunsational is they come to your pool. The kids are so comfortable in their own environment that they learn and retain the lessons so much faster than if we had to pack up and leave. Our teacher, Gina is so phenomenal, she's not afraid to get goofy with the kids and try all sorts of ways until the kids catch on. My 23 month old is almost completely swimming and I have no doubt will be fully so by the end of our program. (12 sessions). She learns a huge new concept every class. She can get to the stairs from the ledge and swim her arms, kick her legs and blow bubbles at the same time, all after 3 lessons.

Shae T.

We live in Arizona and had the pleasure of having Gloria. She was so patient and kind with our son! He has improved so much with his confidence in water. Having someone come to our own backyard to teach was a bonus! Definitely recommend Sunsational Swim school!

Jeannette E.

Ms. Terrin was so awesome with my kids! After a bit of confusion with scheduling and matching us with an instructor, they ended up matching us with Terrin and we could not have been happier! We completed 12 sessions with my 1.5 AND 3 year old. At the start of their lessons, my 3 year old was a bit intimidated with the water but by the end of their sessions, he was able to swim on his own far enough to get to a safe zone in our pool. Terrin was always on time and super patient with both kids. They both LOVED her and had so much FUN!!

Nicole K.

Thank you for connecting us with such a great instructor! Terry has been absolutely wonderful. She is fun, very kind and my 6-month old has a ball with her! I can't wait to see my daughter progress with more lessons. - Genna Majuta

genna k.

Andrea was so fantastic with our 2 year old! She went from non-swimmer to starfish in 12 swim lessons. AWESOME!

Toby P.

This has been a great experience from the beginning. Jessica is amazing, and my one year old is now well on her way to being able to swim for herself. We are very happy with the progress. Jessica has a boat load of patience, is always on time, and very professional.

David P.

Calli has been wonderful! My daughter is swimming so much better and she is incredibly patient with my son who is not a fan of the water!

Candace B.

We are only three lessons in toddler swim lessons. Our main goal is to get her comfortable in the pool and water, Christa is the most kind, patient instructor we could imagine. My toddler was in tears the majority first lesson, but Christa was patient and so great with her. Having our daughter learn in an environment she is comfortable with has been wonderful, I would highly recommend Christa and Sunsational to anyone.

Shanna L.

'Abby Walker is amazing with my 2-year-old son, he jumps in as soon as his lessons start and doesn't want to get out at the end. His swimming has already improved so much. Thank you, Abby and Sunsational! I've been recommending you to my family and friends!' - Serena G

Serena G.

Supuni was amazing. Her confidence and guidance in making sure our daughter learned the skills needed for survival were amazing and greatly appreciated. She was so sincere and full of good knowledge. - Ashlee Haverkamp

Ashlee H.

Alena our swim instructor is the best we've ever seen. So great with our challenging kids. Whatever she does is magic, and we scratch our heads because we can't even get our own kids to calm down and focus as she does. What an awesome swim instructor, will hire again and again!!!

Grant M.

Vanessa has been great! She shows up on time and has been so patient with my 2 year old. She genuinely cares about her clients and is so kind. My son gets so excited when he sees her because he knows we’re about to have some fun in the pool! - Katie Bozkurt

Katie B.

We have been doing private lessons with Charis from Sunsational Swim School. She was a great match for our kids. They look forward to the lessons and they are learning pool safety along with swimming skills.

Beth L.

Sofia, the instructor we have been paired with, is great with my kids, and they were so scared of putting their heads under water before starting, and I’ve seen so much progress in 4 lessons so far. I’m very happy with sunsational swim school! - Natasha Banos

Natasha B.

'Jordan was wonderful! My sons loved her and really learned a lot in 12 sessions. I would definitely recommend her to other parents looking to get their babies water safe for the summer. Thanks Jordan and Sunsational Swim School!' - Dana V.

Dana V.

We were so happy to work with Danielle this summer. She was very professional and punctual. My three children have made such wonderful progress. Our 2 year old can float and has learned other water safety measures. Our two older children have gained so much confidence and are learning new skills. We can't say enough things about her work. We hope she is available again next year!

Ruchi D.

'Michelle L has been amazing! Very patient and a great instructor! With Mom sharing 50/50 custody and a crazy schedule, I didn't think we would find an instructor that could work with us. Michelle has been flexible and has helped make this very convenient to do lessons. She is always on time and arrives with a smile. She is positive and encouraging. My 3-year-old grandson is swimming from the step to the wall and knows how to float. For his age, the 30-minute lessons probably work the best. I highly recommend this program for safety swimming!' Devri Q

Erica G.

Bella S is a phenomenal teacher. She adapts with ease according to my toddler son’s interests and attention and uses gentle language to encourage and push him. Not only has he learned so much, he also has fun with her and is always happy to see her. We feel truly fortunate to have been matched with her. - Massiel Cohn

5 reasons to start swim lessons for your baby now

Many Welby parents wonder if their baby is too young to start learning to swim. They think babies will eventually learn the skills on their own, or that the skill isn’t necessary. Here’s why starting lessons early is a smart choice:

Water safety starts early

Drowning is the leading cause of accidental death for children under four. Babies are naturally curious, which is why baby swimming lessons make so much sense. An awareness of the water, and water safety skills, could very well save your child’s life one day.

Decreased risk of drowning

It’s not always possible to watch your child every second, and water is often part of everyday life—from bathtubs and backyard pools to beaches, splash pads, and family outings. Young children can be at risk around even small amounts of water, especially infants & toddlers under 5. Swimming lessons can help children build comfort in the water and begin developing important water safety skills as part of a broader approach to drowning prevention.

Encourages social interaction

Swimming and playing in the pool with parents and other babies helps boost babies' social development. Babies learn through shared experiences, laughter, and engaging in activities together. Your child shouldn't have to skip these character-forming moments due to a fear of the water or because you simply haven't found the time for swim lessons.

Builds their strength

For babies, swimming helps strengthen their muscles, improve coordination, and enhance their motor skills – all without any unnecessary stress on joints. Plus, the water’s resistance provides a full-body workout, even for the tiniest of swimmers. Swimming may even help learn to walk sooner thanks to better muscle control.

Lifelong skill that starts early

Swimming is a skill for life. Providing your baby with swimming lessons opens up a whole new arena of fun and fitness that they can participate in all their lives. If you don't know how to swim, consider taking a parent and baby swim class together or taking adult swim lessons on your own. Create core memories in the water, together!

How parent and baby swim lessons help build confidence around the water

Babies as young as six months old benefit from pool time in the arms of a trusted adult. Infant swim lessons allow your child to enjoy the water before they have a chance to learn fear. Positive pool experiences help babies remain calm so they can progress to learn effective water navigation skills such as kicking and back floats.

How parent and baby swim lessons help 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

The benefits of swim lessons extend beyond the pool. The sensory and motor stimulation resulting from pool time creates new neurons that positively impact confidence and even intelligence. Bilateral movements, or using both sides of the body, help increase the connections between the two hemispheres of the brain, which will later help with skills like language development, spatial awareness and reading.

How to prepare your baby for swim lessons

Not ready for a formal class yet? Start at home! Simple activities in the bathtub, like gently pouring water over your baby’s head, introducing words like “kick” and “splash”, or laying them on their back in shallow water, can help them feel comfortable in the water before their first lesson.

When you’re ready for the pool, help your baby be successful with these tips:

1
Feed them at least 30 minutes before a lesson to prevent tummy discomfort
2
Pack essentials like swim diapers, towels, dry clothes, and fresh diapers
3
Arrive early so you have time to get ready
4
Ease into the water to keep the experience positive

Water safety is always the number one priority

Even the most comprehensive water training program isn’t enough to drown-proof your child. Babies should always be within arm’s reach in the water, and children should never swim unsupervised. The goal of baby swim lessons is to help build comfort in the water and introduce foundational water safety skills, which may help reduce the chance of accidental drowning as part of a broader approach to water safety. This includes active supervision, pool fences and barriers, alarms, and other safety measures, but risk can never be eliminated completely. Even if your little one was the star of the class, it’s important to remain vigilant with supervision to help ensure positive and safe experiences in and around the water for years to come.

Got questions?

We have answers. What age can babies start swim lessons?

No. Sunsational Swim School’s infant swim lessons are based on a child-centered and caring approach that focuses on building trust and rapport with the instructor and wonderment and respect of the water. When designing your baby’s swim lesson plan, our instructors consider all aspects of the well-being of your baby, including physical and emotional. Your swim instructor will create a safe environment for your baby to learn water-safety skills that include back floating, roll over breathing, “swim-float-swim”, the monkey crawl, and what to do after a fall into the pool. All of these skills are taught in a way that’s both fun and educational, using games, repetition, and even songs, at a pace that’s healthy for your little one.

Yes! Sunsational specializes in private, at-home baby swimming lessons, where our instructors come directly to your pool or community facility in Welby. It’s the easiest way for your baby to learn in a calm, familiar setting.

We make scheduling easy. Morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend lessons are avaialble 6AM-8PM to fit your family’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 Welby, our instructors teach year-round, so you can start lessons whenever you’re ready.

Every child is unique and develops at their own pace. Physical and emotional readiness, motor skills and willingness all play a role in the pace your baby learns. However, the most common and most influential factors in the student’s learning pace we find is repetition and consistency. We recommend our baby students take 3 lessons per week for maximum skill retention and fast progression. Most of our students make significant progress within 12 to 18 lessons in our baby swim classes.

Yes. Swimming is not only defined as the four major swim strokes, but the ability to propel through the water. Your baby can learn how to use their little limbs, breathing and sense of direction to deliberately move from point a to b in the water, once they start walking. These skill sets are learned in a progressive manner and each child learns at a different pace. Our infant swim lesson teachers are experienced in coaching your baby to learn these skills in a fun, encouraging, and accelerated way. Even if your baby is not ready to swim, we'll work on swim and safety skills like blowing bubbles (breath control), kicking, rolling over onto our back and floating.

Your baby’s first swim lesson is designed to be gentle, fun, and completely pressure-free. The goal isn’t to make your baby swim right away—it’s to help them feel safe, happy, and relaxed in the water. Tears on the first day are not unexpected!

Your Sunsational instructor will start by introducing your baby to the pool gradually: gentle splashing, floating with support, and playful water exploration. Parents or caregivers are always encouraged to be present.

Most Welby parents begin lessons around 6 months old, when babies can comfortably hold their heads up and start exploring the water. Babies who have early exposure to swim lessons and the water are proven to have reduced anxieties and emotional obstacles learning how to swim. The water at this age is a familiar place as it’s similar to floating in the womb. Sunsational’s certified instructors offer private, at-home baby swimming lessons throughout Denver, helping your little one feel confident and safe early on.

Absolutely. Every Sunsational instructor in Welby is certified in CPR and insured under our company liability insurance policy. What's more, every Sunsational swim instructor has a minimum of 2 season's of teaching experience. We emphasize comfort, floating, and water awareness—always at your baby’s pace.

Every child learns differently, but with consistent, one-on-one instruction, most Welby infants begin floating and showing swim readiness within our 12 or 18 lesson package. Sunsational’s personalized approach—taught in your own pool—helps babies progress faster than in group lessons. We find that the most common and most influential factors in the student’s learning pace are repetition and consistency. To that end, we recommend our baby students take 3 lessons per week for maximum skill retention and fast progression.

While we specialize in private, at-home infant swim classes in Welby, you do not need to have a pool to register for our lessons. Our infant swim teachers near you can meet you at any pool of your choice in Denver. In some areas, we even have some swim instructors who can provide a pool for your lessons.

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 Welby, 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.

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.
