Coach Michelle is the best thing that has happened to my child. She is largely found by word of…read moremouth and we have now run into countless families that have worked with her over the past 20 years (with nothing but amazing things to say). When my son started with her we had tried several group classes and he hated water and wouldn't even get his head wet. She warned that he would cry the first couple classes (both before booking and as the session started) but that it would get better. He screamed so bad the first class, I thought she was going to ask us not to come back. She reassured us that it was normal and sure enough by class 3, maybe 4, he was obsessed. Classes are 15 minutes/ twice a week. it's just long enough to keep their attention and learn something. Although if Michelle's next client is late or she has a free few minutes she'll extend the session, if the child is having a good time- this is truly her passion and not her job and it shows. We've been going for over 9 months and I have tried to move him to a group class setting just for maintenance because he can swim now but he won't leave coach michelle and honestly I can't blame him. Coach Michelle is kind and gentle. She explains absolutely everything to the kids so they know what is happening and they aren't scared. She's patient, kind, and understanding. She has built a personal relationship with my son and talks about life outside class and he talks about what he is going to tell her at his next class. We're beyond swim class at this point and i'm not sure how we'll ever leave her. luckily I have a 1 year old we'll be starting soon.

If I could give a negative star, that's what she would get. She said for 8 lessons I had to pay…read more225$ in full. After the 3rd lesson, which were all supposed to be 15 minutes, (she cuts it to around 10- complete waste of time) she was late and had her gate locked. I called multiple times with no answer and she came running out ten minutes late. The kid after us, she books every 15 minutes, shows up literally as we're walking in. All she did for 3 lessons each time was slam my sons head underwater repetitively. He screamed his head off the entire ten minutes. I asked if she could work on something else the third lesson that didn't include dunking his head the entire lesson (that is literally what she did for every lesson, dunk his head 3 to 5 times and then he was done, screaming). I told her I didn't wish to come back because he was making no progress and he hated pools even more now. She lied and told me she would give me a refund and demanded my address to drop it off, and then goes on to say I will have to wait over a week for that to even happen with no specific day. I asked what day and she rudely responds, "I have had enough of you!!!" This woman is rude, unprofessional, and a liar. Why should I have to pay 225$ for three, ten minute long lessons? Why LIE stating I would get a refund and then blatantly ignore me, and get annoyed when asked for a refund you claimed you would give? She is clearly broke and waiting for her new victim customer to pay her, or plans on not paying me back at all. Disgusting behavior. I guess she would rather get blasted in every South OC moms group with her true colors (I come with screen shots!!) and get dragged into small claims court. You're not stealing my money, I will bring you to court you THIEF. I highly recommend you read the only other bad review, because apparently nothing has changed with this shady thief in 4 years.

We brought our son here when he was 9 months old and my wife enjoyed the water time with him. Fast…read moreforward to three years old, turning four and they were still in the water together! My biggest three gripes were that we were watching younger kids come into the class and we essentially became the co-trainers. My son was so bored he just goofed off and didn't listen anymore because he could already do everything at that level since he'd been in the same class for over a year. We had asked her and she said she could move him up but she had to find spots in her other classes and she kinda seemed like she preferred the parent staying because it would be less work for her. Which goes to my next gripe that the other families in our time had been with us since the beginning! Yet she was willing to move all of our times, while they were still infants, to their nap time but she couldn't find time to transition them to swim by themselves. Since going, we've had the time changed 4 times all on Saturday. As any parent can attest to, messing around with nap times is a huge PITA. You could make the argument that she was being cautious not letting him swim without his mom because she felt he wasn't ready. However, he had been swimming without my wife for over a year already. We had been going to another swim school because she stated there weren't any slots open and weren't seeing much progress with her. The last complaint I have is that we never got what we paid for. The class started 10 minutes late and ended 5 minutes early. For a 30 minute class that's essentially half the class she spent chatting with the class prior, snacking, or ending it so she could snack. That's very unprofessional and should be something she baked into her schedule versus taking time in the class.

Destinee is the nicest person there is and truly loves the kids and they absolutely love her. She knows when to push them, love them and have fun with them. We had tried lessons at a number of different places and the results are not comparable. Not to mention the convenience of her coming to our house and ensuring the kids know our pool and where they can get out easily! I couldn't be happier that my kids can swim and love the water, something that will benefit them for the rest of their lives!
