Water Safety Is Our Top Concern For Your Baby

Water safety is an important matter in any home, especially if you’re the parent or guardian of a wiggly baby or young child. Everything peaks their interests and they’re natural explorers. The pool and water are great discovery play zones, but they’re also the leading cause of accidental death for children under the age of 5. This alarming fact was a spark in the creation of Sunsational Swim School, and it’s been our mission since 2009 to put an end to this tragic statistic. Swimming lessons don’t just give your baby a head start in their development, they also reduce their risk of drowning by up to 88%. Instilling confidence, increasing body awareness and spurring brain development are all just nice bonuses in comparison to their life-saving value in light of these facts:

Drowning is the #1 cause of accidental death for children under age 5 years old
65% of all preschooler-drowning incidents occur in the child’s home pool
33% of drownings occur at the homes of friends, neighbors or relatives
9 out of 10 drowning deaths occur while a caregiver is present

Drowning is Preventable

Participation in formal swimming lessons can reduce the risk of drowning by 88% among children aged one to four years.

Sunsational Clients Love Our Swimming Lessons

Rated 4.9/5 Stars From Over 900+ Reviews
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!
Customer Review On yelp
We are so pleased with Sunsational Swim School and especially our swim instructor, Kelly. She works so well with our grand-daughter who is not quite 3. We are seeing good progress. If we had interviewed a hundred teachers, we could not have picked a better one than Kelly. Thank you.
Customer Review On yelp
Marriaha from Sunsational is amazing! She has been the swim instructor for our two daughters ages 2&5 for the past couple months. Our two year old was not water safe at all and now she's able to swim! She's fun and patient, but also strict enough for the kids to respect her and learn. I would highly recommend her!

How does Sunsational Swim Work

Frequently Asked  Questions

  • Do I need to have a pool for Sunsational Swim School’s baby swim classes in Sacramento?

    While we specialize in private, at-home infant swim classes in Sacramento, 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 some areas, we even have some swim instructors who can provide a pool for your lessons. To find out if we have instructors with pool access in your specific area, you can begin a registration here.

  • When is the best age to start baby swim lessons?

    Sunsational Swim School begins baby swimming lessons in Sacramento for infants as young as 6 months old. 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. We encourage families to start with a mommy and me swim lesson for babies or swimming lessons for 1 year olds.

  • How long will it take for my child to learn to swim?

    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.

  • Does Sunational teach Infant Self-Rescue “ISR” / survival swimming 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.

  • Can babies really swim?

    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 in Sacramento are experienced in coaching your baby to learn these skills in a fun, encouraging, and accelerated way.

  • When does a parent have to be in the water?

    We require that a parent or guardian is in the water with infants under 12 months to ensure that they are more comfortable during the swim lesson. We also recommend a parent or guardian is in the water for the first few lessons for toddler swim lessons between 12-24 months.

  • What can I expect for my baby’s first swim class?

    Your swim instructor’s first lesson with your baby is all about establishing trust and rapport with your baby AND with YOU! Our infant swim instructors are specially experienced with introducing your baby to the water in a fun, encouraging approach. If for any reason after your first swim lesson you’re unsatisfied with your swim teacher, you can let us know and we’ll match you with a new swim teacher or issue a refund. It’s your choice under 100% satisfaction guarantee.
