Honestly, I don't know why more families in Bolingbrook AND the surrounding suburbs don't go to…read moreBolingbrook Park District for their swim lessons! Not only is Pelican Harbor indoor water park humongous and perfect for all levels of swimming, staff is incredibly friendly and prices are beyond reasonable!!! Even if you're not a Bolingbrook resident, if you sign up early enough, you can get 6-8 swimming lesson sessions for about $8 per lesson. I currently have both my children in Parkie's Starfish Swim School (ages 3-8) and each lesson is 40 minutes long. At private swim schools (Bear Paddle, Goldfish, British Swim School), lessons for that age group are 30 minutes long and almost 3 times as much per lesson! One thing to keep in mind are that many of the instructor are VERY young (probably high school-early college age). One of my kids is a newly minted 3 year old and doesn't listen very well at times (my kid just wants to play around in the water). I think the teacher had a hard time instructing in the beginning, but she doesn't give up and spoke to me about methods to "speed up" the progression as well as boundaries I may have. I appreciated that because I can only imagine how hard it is to teach young children who would rather play than learn. Parkie's Starfish Swim School has several levels starting from White (never having a swim lesson before) and ending in Green (able to swim on side, can freestyle 30 feet with rhythmic breathing). Levels Red-Yellow-Blue are in between. After mastering green, they can move to Parkie's Starfish Stroke School, perfecting all the strokes with longer distances as well as flips and open turns. They also have Parkie's Babies Swim Lesson for babies (ages 3-36 months). Overall I highly recommend Bolingbrook Park District for swim lessons. It's extremely affordable, the indoor swimming facility is very impressive and staff is so nice. I love that I can bring my kids here year-round instead of just summers. I know I'll continue bringing my kids here for years to come!

I have been doing this since last year, then one of the personnel walked up to me last month after their class whiles practicing and asked if I was a member which I answered no. She then said, you can stay if you are a member but if not then get out". I got my kids ready after we were done then asked her what was their policy for after class, she said, you are able to stay till 15 minutes after the swimming class. I called the manager of the place and reported this incidence. Will I take my kids back there? NO!!! Staff should have the respect for people who patronize them and not disrespect them.The staff should have explained their policy because this same staff if there every day I take my kids to this place. She was out right rude and disrespectful! They just lost two customers.

PROS: The pool and facilities are clean. There are a lot of…read morelifeguards on duty. There are plenty of lounge chairs around the pool. The season pass pricing is reasonable. The front desk checks your bags to make sure there are no improper items. Unopened bottles of nonalcoholic drinks are allowed. This is good for the protection of children and weirdos coming into the pool area. CONS: There should be real food served in the vending area. This is a major turn off as a mom. The ice cream vending machine should also 1) work, and 2) be stocked. This is, afterall, summer.

My friend Tara had a private birthday party here for her kid. It's not a giant pool but it was…read morecertainly big enough for us. There's a slide, a diving board, and a shallow little kid spot with water spouts for the wee ones to play. Besides the fact that it's super fun to have a pool filled only with people you know, it's even better when the lifeguards rock. The staff was so much fun. My friend's husband and I were having a very ridiculous diving board competition (more like who-could-land-the-worst competition) and the guards were all about joining in our laughter. They also shot water guns with the kids when they were off rotation. I'd like to give a giant shout-out to the staff. You people were perfection. Well done.

Their encouragement and support pushed me to be the best I could. I highly recommend their swim team! Downside: There's a decent water slide. Otherwise, there is only one or sometimes two lap lanes, overall it's a rather small pool. It is very expensive and always over crowded which is why 3 stars is appropriate.

Student lessons are done at the far opposite end of the pool where there's no way anyone can observe them.

All adds up to poor management oversight.

We had tried a…read morepark district years ago with my first, but we quickly realized how poor the level of interaction was with the instructors and the lack of progress being made.  We switched to Superior and have had a great experience since then (in fact, we just enrolled our third child). The ratio of instructor to child is excellent, allowing swimmers to become comfortable in the water and learn skills at a faster rate. I highly recommend Superior Training!

Stay away from this swim school!!!! All they want is your money. They used to be awesome but as of…read morelate some of the amazing people have left and they have gone down hill drastically. On top of the service getting worse and the facility not being kept up the prices are getting higher. Lastly, they don't mind cancelling on you last minute but if you cancel on them last min that's not allowed or you lose a class. Literally they called me last week to cancel my class on that same call I asked if I can cancel a makeup class so I would have to wearing an almost an hour in between classes and I was told no I would lose that class. "Hold on you literally just cancelled mine but I can't cancel the makeup?" and " I have to wait around for an almost an hour for the next one?" Complete disregard for your time again as long as they get paid. It doesn't matter. We cancelled our membership immediately and are starting somewhere else next month.

There are a ton of kids coming in and out throughout the day. I've seen staff cleaning. We started sending my daughter two days a week since she started late in life because of covid. I have enough trust in the teachers to drop her off where she needs to go, and I sit in the lobby. All she has done is thrive. It's hard for a teacher to work with kids if they are turning to find their parents all the time. She will be six this month, and she will be in level six.
