They offer a free introductory session so that they can gauge what skill level your child is coming in at. Group sessions aren't overfilled and are well staffed. Additional staff also monitor the pools from the sides. Private sessions usually have a waitlist, but worth doing if your child needs additional sensory, ADHD or autism accommodations. Check-in is easy, the premises are clean, restrooms, showers and changing rooms are all well maintained, and as you walk in they have that lovely steamy chlorinated smell most of us know from the leisure centres of our childhoods. Huge fan of this Mandarin location, highly recommend.

We started swim safari because I wanted my daughter to be comfortable and confident while in the…read morewater. A couple times of sucking water up her nose in the bath had me worried that she would be scared. We have rotated through many instructors at this point and they have all been great in their own way! I appreciate how each one takes the time to explain WHY we are doing the next activity and what gross/fine motor skills we are working on. I also appreciate that there is a new lesson plan every 2 weeks. We went to a different swimming company for a month prior to switching to Swim Safari and I felt like we were aimlessly doing the same few activities over and over and I never understood what we were trying to achieve because the instructors were not explaining anything. Every single employee is welcoming and has taken the time to know and remember my daughter. It has been a great outlet for her to make new friends as well. She has made great improvements since starting and soon she will be going into the water without me! We have also been thankful for the amount of class options, both the days and times. Keeping a toddler on a schedule is important! My ONLY suggestion is that the locker rooms could be a little warmer. It gets cold when your soaking wet and have to get a toddler dressed first.

We started at 7 months old almost a year ago and can say that this is the best decision we've made…read morefor our baby's development!! He has learned so much and shown so much improvement w motor skills and excitement for the water. I love the variety they have in activities and are thoughtful on the different tactics to practice survivor experiences as well as strength. Of course we do have our favorite teachers, but all of them really are well trained, friendly and pay great attention to the students. They have great changing stations, plenty of room to prepare before class and clean-up after - even for the parents, since we have to join the baby classes till they can attend on their own. We only have 1 kid, but we see how parents of 2 or more are enjoying bringing their kids to attend classes around similar times. Our only complaint is that the school is so far from us!! I wish they had more branches on the west / north side - but we tried other swimming schools but they either don't have well trained teachers, host classes in adult gyms (which I don't feel comfortable with), or lack a strong community. So that's why we choose to make the average 1.3 hour commute (total) every week bc it's worth it.

My son understood all of the basics by 10 classes, and was a pretty good swimmer by 20 classes.
