Olivia U
Arvada, Colorado 80007
Hi, my name is Olivia and I've been working as a swim instructor since February 2024! I have lots of experience working with kids and am majoring in elementary education at the University of Arizona. I specialize in kids between the ages of 2-8 years. I also have experience with infant classes and the swim team!
With over 10 years of aquatic experience, I am qualified and confident to teach swim skills and water safety.
I have swam competitively, taught swim lessons, and instructed aquatic therapy for people with physical and mental disabilities.
Working as an aquatic therapist taught me about the properties of the water and how to instruct those with special needs.
Communication is key so we can all be on the same page for aquatic expectations and goals!

I am a Colorado native and spent summers at the neighborhood pool. Through high school and college, I lifeguarded and taught swim lessons at various recreation districts, including Normandy Estates, Bear Creek Swim and Tennis, and the YMCA. I also had the opportunity to coach summer club swim teams and was an assistant coach for one year as a high school coach. My love of teaching swimming prompted me to pursue a career as a teacher. I have been a special education teacher since August 2000. I love keeping busy in the summers. Most recently, I was an outdoor manager at Grant Ranch in Littleton. I believe in water safety and making swimming a positive and fun experience! I can't wait for summer!
