This was a far better option than taking our girls to group swim lessons where they would likely swim only 10 minutes of the full lesson time and spend the rest of the time waiting for other kids to swim. It was very convenient to have the swim instructor come to us and the girls progressed much more in 6 lessons than they ever would have in group lessons, and we didn't have to drive anywhere. The instructor was very good with children and professional.
We have had a positive experience with Sunsational. We love the flexibility of when and where to do our lessons. And as for our instructor, Stephanie, she is a star. She is very, very patient and kind. She uses various ways and little 'games' to encourage my son. She's gentle and understanding, but also firm when necessary. My son isn't a fan of the water, but with Stephanie's patience, we have made great progress from very scared to even stand in the water to starting to swim with help. I can't praise Stephanie enough!!
This is our second round of swimming lessons with Sunsational and they were great. Kim was our instructor for 4 kids between 3-5years and she was patient and tailored to their varying experience levels. All the kids enjoyed their lessons and I would definitely book again!
Our instructor found via Sunsantional swim is EXCELLENT. Amber is professional. Takes our needs and thoughts into providing a fun learning experience for our child that will meet his goals. Considering the time we spent trying to find private instruction for a middle school swim newbie in SF I would definitely use them in the future. Many thanks!
We are so impressed by Amber's professionalism, warmth, and consistency. We feel very lucky to have been matched with her and look forward to much more swimming this summer!
If you're not happy with your swim lessons after your first lesson, contact us and we'll restart your lesson package with another instructor or provide a refund, your choice!
